They don’t want you to earn it. Because it proves you can, which then proves the system isn’t inherently racist, it just rewards hard work, dedication and responsibility. Which are also traits they don’t want you to have, because they are “white.”
Makes me fucking sick, they look at anyone not blatantly white European like feeble fucking children.
I agree with you on earning it. However, think about it this way – use it to exploit their vulnerability. They want you to use it to advance their agenda. Invest it so you can DESTORY the people who hate you and their agenda instead.
High respect tho. Too many people, regardless of race, want to earn anything nowadays.
This will only divide white / black/ brown. Do they understand what they are doing; absolutely they do. A divided nation will not stand!
Do not let them win.
Won't divide me I see it as a small portion of liberals that are behind this because the black community is waking up look at all the trump votes that is what is scaring them we are waking up together! I know my black american brothers and sisters see through this bs and are madder than we are!
"the Virginia House of Delegates voted 61-39 to approve a bill (HB 1980) that would require the state’s five colleges and universities established before 1865 – the University of Virginia, Virginia Commonwealth University, Virginia Military Institute, Longwood University, and the College of William & Mary – to offer four-year full scholarships and other grants to applicants who can prove descent from slaves who had worked as builders, maintenance workers or groundskeepers at these institutions. "
I'm pretty darn conservative, but I'd even support this bill. What?, had a great, great, grandpa that was enslaved and used for hard labor in the building of these five universities? Damn straight, give that grandchild a scholarship! What the heck. Get on ancestry, gather up the evidence.
Why? You didn't decide that. No one who is at that university decided to enslave their ancestors. Why would you accept responsibility for something that you had absolutely no part in conducting?
The reparations issue in general is used by the left for many bad political purposes. I also hate the broad brush strokes it paints on our white ancestors. For example, I had two direct ancestors (gr. gr. grandfathers) that died fighting for the north in the Civil War. These men lost their life (and left small children fatherless) so that their white descendants generations down the line could be shamed for their own skin color? And as I understand it, very few white people owned slaves. It was usually the ultra rich democrat plantation southerner. (granted, virtually most whites were guilty of going along with jim crow type stuff)
Anyways, conversely, say...if we shorten the timespan a little...pretend that your actual grandfather forced my grandfather at gunpoint to build your house that you are still living in today. This to me, is not some sweeping racist anti-white enactment. It always seems more like what could be in a civil law case. The college buildings still exist, (and with endowments they are hugely rich, they can spare making good for a few hundred? descendants).
This is complete bullshit. They are lucky to live in this country. Noone alive has ever owned a fucking slave nor has anyone been owned. They deserve nothing. Not even to mention that it was jews that owned almost all slaves. Whites actually owned very little of them.
This is stupid and divisive. I’d be ok with this if slavery was 10 yea4s ago and these were immediate family. Ffs the Holocaust was in some people’s lifetime that are alive today and the6 aren’t crying about reparations
Townhall reported that on February 5, the Virginia House of Delegates voted 61-39 to approve a bill (HB 1980) that would require the state’s five colleges and universities established before 1865 – the University of Virginia, Virginia Commonwealth University, Virginia Military Institute, Longwood University, and the College of William & Mary – to offer four-year full scholarships and other grants to applicants who can prove descent from slaves who had worked as builders, maintenance workers or groundskeepers at these institutions. The bill’s sponsor, Delegate David A. Reid (D-Loudoun County), who is white and a career Navy man to boot, calls passage “a small but important step to acknowledge and address that the foundational success of five universities was based on enslaved labor.”
LAME!!! I am black. I will NEVER accept free money!
Shit if somebody said you can go to college for free because your white...I wouldn't think twice. College is pricey!
I can't do it brother. If someone gave me something for race.
I would have an issue with it.
I want to earn it.
I like it. Conviction in your beliefs!
They don’t want you to earn it. Because it proves you can, which then proves the system isn’t inherently racist, it just rewards hard work, dedication and responsibility. Which are also traits they don’t want you to have, because they are “white.”
Makes me fucking sick, they look at anyone not blatantly white European like feeble fucking children.
And then they can take it away from you.
I agree with you on earning it. However, think about it this way – use it to exploit their vulnerability. They want you to use it to advance their agenda. Invest it so you can DESTORY the people who hate you and their agenda instead.

That's a good point.
Maybe you are onto something.
Start telling people.
Use those reps to start a business. Work for yourself.
Tell the System F U!
And start hiring White Workers lol.
Nice to see whites who've never owned slaves give cash to blacks who've never been slaves....
It's white leftist who push for this shit.
It's another communist tactic!
This will only divide white / black/ brown. Do they understand what they are doing; absolutely they do. A divided nation will not stand! Do not let them win.

Yes sir! I am black.
WE DON'T WANT FUCKING HAND OUTS!!!
It will only divide the "EMOTIONAL MEN" out there. We need the men of our country to see the big picture.
If the men of our country gets EMOTIONAL. That is how we start to fight with each other.
TLDR -

Wait until some crafty Asian's figure out the loopholes in this law and get all the scholarships, lol.

That leaves Harris out. Her ancestors owned slaves.

all the white student should pull out to other states. Lets see how fast that shit would end.
No more endowments from white alumni, either.
Yeah I agree. Would tank quickly.
