Reverse Racism, or How the pot Got to Call the Kettle Black

Another aspect of racism we need to think about is the fact that all races that were treated unfairly did not react the same way years later. African Americans surely hold it against the Whites for slavery. There is nothing Whites can do to take away the pain of what the African Americans suffered years ago. So of course the only solution should be to remind the Whites of the horrible things they have done and make their lives more difficult. African Americans should spend their lives searching for restitution. Any time that calls for the " Whites unfairly treating Blacks card" it should be played. This should not be the way to act, however many African Americans do act this way and society is beginning to accept it. This is why they are getting into college easier, receiving scholarships more easily, and receiving financial aid more easily. Now please note that the only thing African Americans initially wanted was to be treated equally. Do they realize that complaining and asking for special privileges makes them unequal?
Now lets take a look at the Jewish people. They were a part of a complete genocide. Six million of their brothers and sisters were wiped out for no reason. So what do they do now in the present? Do they walk into a grocery store, get treated badly, and walk out saying " They treated me that way because I'm Jewish." It seems as if they do not. They made better lives for themselves. Surely they do not forget or even forgive what happened to them years ago, but they realize that there is nothing anyone can do to turn the clocks back and make it never happen. So they live their lives as equally as everyone else without asking for special privliges. I could be wrong with my generalizations about these two groups of people but it is what I have found to be true in my life up to this point.
