What affirmative action is then privilege?
US started making laws less then 240 years ago. So again, how did you come up with 400?
Please rephrase your first sentence.
Before the US existed whites were discriminating against Blacks.
And why should I care about what British did? My family is second gen od Euro Americans, why should I feel guilty for anything that happened in US even before my parents were born?
Your position is that my refusal to acknowledge that I am guilty of something automatically confirms that I am guilty of something. That's creepy, dude. It reminds me of Kafka's book "The trial", where now I am being accused of crime that is not specified, but it is designed to degrade me and destroy me regardless that I have not committed any crime at all.
So, how am I responsible for something that British did some 400 years ago. And how are you affected by something that British did some 400 years ago?
