"A new study by researchers at Tufts University and Harvard Business School shows that whites believe they are victims of racism more often than Blacks.
While that may elicit a raised eyebrow from most people, the title of the study 'Whites See Racism as a Zero-sum Game that They Are Now Losing,' shows that many whites believe that as racism against Blacks has decreased, racism against them has increased much more.
'It’s a pretty surprising finding when you think of the wide range of disparities that still exist in society, most of which show black Americans with worse outcomes than whites in areas such as income, home ownership, health and employment,' said Tufts Associate Professor of Psychology Samuel Sommers, Ph.D., co-author of the study."

I am not surprised. When you read blog posts like this one you can't help but feel the frustration and pain of my melanin challenged friends. (h/t brohammas) I mean first Harry Potter and now Charlie's Angels. Is nothing sacred in A-merry-ca anymore? Folks are even writing about "the end of white America." The majority is under siege. Our poor Founding Fathers must be turning in their graves.
I blame that Obama guy. Don't worry folks, he won't be president forever. Things will be back to normal soon.
