I was wondering if a white guy who is bilingual can apply? I see on the website only hispanic looking people so that's why I'm asking, thanks.

Its members of the Hispanic community trying to give a kid a better opportunity because they don't have the white privelege white people do due to racial barriers European ancestors built this country on raping and pillaging the native population which was at one point close to 90 million on both north and South America prior to European exploration. Aztecs and Mayans didn't land on Plymouth Rock, Plymouth Rock landed on them.

Oh, you mean when the Spaniards (Spanish) landing in North America? Yeah that was bad for the natives. Those Spaniards really were something else indeed.

Sounds like i should pay for this forever since I was heavily involved in slave trading, raping, pillaging, etc. from what you just stated. Whitey needs to pay until he can't pay anymore. In fact, privileged whitey should really be exterminated from everything I've read about them. Only whites have done any of these horrific deeds since the dawn of time.

Now Swedish, that is really white...watch out for them especially! They are extremely white and privileged because of that.

As far as the Aztecs and Mayans having anything to do with Plymouth Rock when they are far far away from that...
[Confused]

I think you should change the title of the the message. I clicked on this topic because it sounded like anyone could apply. Only Hispanics can apply for this. Don't be afraid to say it like it is, this is America.

Title should say: "Hispanics can apply for this college scholarship" This is who you are targeting so don't be afraid to say so.

Does a Spaniard from Europe count as Hispanic to apply?

My Danish side came from Denmark prior to the start of WWII due to Germany's aggression. Ever since arriving then we've had to bear the burden of white privilege and are responsible for the destruction of the native population that was dead hundreds of years before my grand mother's arrival to this country. So I'm guessing this is why white people cannot get the scholarship because they are the majority and regardless of when and where you came from they are responsible for the inequalities that exist. Duh

Wait a second here, Only hispanics can apply? WTF I'm pretty sure if i had a scholarship available for only whites it would be considered racist!!!! Just like 20 years ago when i was in highschool and still to this day the mexicans could wear hats and shirts that say BROWN PRIDE , But I wear a WHITE PRIDE shirt and i'm a racist pig! isn't our country amazing. Might as well give them a escalade, free low income living and a foodstamp packet with purchase of tuition. LMAO

The ignorance is STRONG on this forum. Such close minded people with no real sense of what goes on at higher education institutions. I could post a slew of scholarly articles explaining the barriers minorities face in seeking higher education but you close minded people could care less to educate yourselves and would rather stick with your own biased opinions.

For those of you who care, take a look at persistence rates beyond the first year for minorities vs whites at college/universities. Compare the rates at which they are granted degrees. Compare the length of time it takes to graduate from one group to the other. See for yourself if there is equity in STEM fields. Or for what reasons those from low SES backgrounds aren't able to complete their education (the barriers they face). Perhaps, you prefer to maintain the status quo and could give two shits. Or reading just isn't your thing [Razz]

By minorities you mean Black/Mexican. Asian/Middle Eastern/Indian doing just fine if not better than whites but then again their parenting culture is vastly different.

P.s. In STEM, especially tech field, be white if you wanna be the minority.

Point is, you can't have a white based anything in this "free" country of ours without being labeled racist.

Because whitey isn't a minority, apparently you can't have a white scholarship fund for underprivileged whites...which there plenty of them roaming around...FACT!

As far as you claiming all the obstacles and barriers these minorities face, why don't you name some of them?

My mom, her sister, and mother and father came here with absolutely nothing and not a word of English. She is white and fled there country when it was being bombed by the Russians. They left in winter in the middle of the night.

Through schooling and hard word did she become a citizen, work various jobs and makes enough on Social Security to make it by every month.

They left every singled possession behind so she and her family could survive and make something of themselves here. So because she is white, is that the only reason she made it in this country?
Privileged whitey living on social security?

Persistence rates and whatever other statistics you wish to present are all bullshit. Maybe if you grew up in the 50-60s there were barriers to a lot of things. But most of the people on this forum grew up in the 80s and 90s and the only barrier to success is your own drive. I've met plenty of people in my lifetime who succeeded regardless of race gender having kids and still graduated and made something of themselves. People who like to perpetuate that there is some sort of barrier are race baiting organizations who are out there forcing less than deserving people get some sort of upper hand cause it was too hard to make it without help.

Fuck that

I am still looking for this white privilege people speak of. I tell you it has yet to stop by my house yet. And if you want to go to school pay for it just like everything else in life.

Someone forgot to tell Asian's they can't get ahead without white privilege:

http://nypost.com/2015/12/29/from-nyc-to-harvard-the-war-on-asian-success/

"Here in New York City, Asian-Americans make up 13 percent of students, yet they win more than half of the coveted places each year at the city’s selective public high schools, such as Bronx Science and Stuyvesant."

Probably because Asian kids are not obsessed with swangin clapped out fox bodies trying to be the next hood millionaire rapper screaming "White privilege and racism!" and instead obsessed with school.

Sorry, but I just can't get past the first line on the welcome part of the web page. It reads as follows:

"The mission of the Hispanic Community Affairs Council (HCAC) is to promote the value of education, cultural diversity, and community involvement."

How do you promote "cultural diversity" if there are only Hispanics involved in this? Maybe I don't get it and wouldn't mind being enlightened.

Lol, remember when the kid from Morgan Hill school (I think) wore an American flag shirt on May 5th and were sent home and punished for it a few years ago. What a bunch of BS that was. I don't care what day it is, you fly the Red White and Blue and time you damn well please in this country...period.

Remember when everyone blew up a few weeks ago about the "White people meet dating site" billboard? People had such a huge issue this. They couldnt let it go. They complained to the point of them taking down the billboard.

Yet groups like this can be made and there is not a single issue with it.


Whats this white privilege thing again?


Its funny how this works.

Well said.

We have good people on this forum, but we seem to always look for the negative on things. Whether it''s someone's car, parts, scholarship fund or superbowl pick!! LOL
