[Lucy22393]

I think many African Americans justify hostility toward whites with the claim that discrimination by blacks does not adversely affect whites to the point that they are denied jobs, education, housing, etc., being that they do not hold enough positions of power to make such discriminatory decisions. However, this opinion fails to recognize the pain and turmoil suffered by those who are harrassed – whether white on black or black on white. And many, who claim to resent being denied jobs or education due to their color, are more than happy to take jobs or academic scholarships that are given to them solely on the basis of race – on the grounds that they or their ancestors suffered and they are only being ‘compensated.’ Unfortunately, this issue will never be resolved as long as there are white people who are willing to deny opportunity to blacks, and as long as there are black people who want something for nothing.
