These days being White means being blamed for everything. But I know that all Whites are not racist, and I hate that the acts and attitudes of some Whites get so much attention that I always end up feeling like people are looking at me when things happen as if I personally had something to do with it. I hate racism and I feel strongly that discrimination of any kind is wrong. But Whites are discriminated against sometimes, as well, but that doesn't seem to count as much as when Blacks or other groups suffer discrimination. If people work hard and apply themselves, then they succeed. That's true for other groups and for Whites, except when we have to give things up to make up for what the other groups don't have. I don't think it's right that we should be penalized for being White because of the problems other races are having.
