Affirmative Action
More thought should be given to the wording of this definition. Reverse Discrimination/Racism is a loaded phrase. It either assumes that the person using the phrase is himself a racist, or that a person is discriminating against himself and others like him. I suggest the phrase be removed from the definition.--JonnS 16:03, 6 September 2011 (EDT)
- "Affirmative Action" is reverse discrimination that is a fact, liberals try to hide it, but that doesn't change the facts. --CraigF 16:04, 6 September 2011 (EDT)
- The thing is that what you're saying is that it's only racism if white people do it. You're implying that people of color cannot be racist because they are people of color.
- Why not try "policies put in place to advance people of color at the expense of white people"? It's a better definition and avoids the implications that many associate with reverse-racism.--JonnS 16:11, 6 September 2011 (EDT)
