White people are the majority race, so they can’t face racism. Someone can’t be racist against you if the reason they feel that way is based off racism.
But, for some reason any time that a minority wants to fight for civil rights or equality, a white person wants to scream reverse racism.
Case in point.
Asked for her take on the current furore over all-white lists of nominees on French Radio network Europe 1 on Friday morning, the British actor did not mince her words. “It is racist to whites,” she said.
“One can never really know, but perhaps the black actors did not deserve to make the final list,” added Charlotte Rampling. Asked if the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences should introduce quotas, a proposal which no current advocate of increased diversity has mooted, she responded: “Why classify people? These days everyone is more or less accepted … People will always say: ‘Him, he’s less handsome’; ‘Him, he’s too black’; ‘He is too white’ … someone will always be saying ‘You are too’ [this or that] … But do we have to take from this that there should be lots of minorities everywhere?”
If there weren’t credible nominees that would be one thing, but there were and they were snubbed.
