Really? Wow I must have missed the bus on this one.
I had to work just as hard, or maybe even harder, as anyone else (well most anyone else) to get where I am today and I don't recall the government going out of their way to give me a leg up to do much of anything simply because I am black...
Alas, I don't know everything... Maybe I missed my affirmative action handout, and reparations because I had my bass too loud, and I don't read. (How'd I do?)edit on 26-3-2012 by majesticgent because: (no reason given)

Yes, the Australian government bends over backwards for black people too.
They don't have to pay taxes, get free healthcare, free education, free cash handouts, free housing, and so on.
Whilst real Aussies are battling to even pay the rent!!!
