Chris Rock on the White Sense of Entitlement
(from my boyfriend's copy of Rock This)
:

You know what racism is really about?

Money....

White people are mad because they think they're losing everything... If people want to get their due, they have to work for it. But there are white people who think they should get theirs just because they're white.

"White? That's twenty-five thousand a year, right? At the very least. What's happened to this country?"

White people aren't used to being broke. White people go broke and it's scary. They start crying. They call the news. Next thing they're on "60 Minutes" and "20/20"....

If I'm not mistaken, didn't black people work 200 years for free? They worked really hard, too. No breaks, no time off. Slaves didn't get vacations. Where could they possibly go?...

If you're wondering why I posted this, please see below.
