rac·ism noun \ˈrā-ˌsi-zəm also -ˌshi-\
Definition of RACISM

1: a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race

So, no.
 
The purpose for the black/asian/hispanic/ etc. scholarship is to compensate for disadvantages faced by those groups.
LOL you just said black and hispanic students are less likely to get academic scholarships based on grades alone because they are genetically inferior and cannot compete against white people in a level playing field :awe:
 
Depends on the definition of racist. Not everything pertaining to race is de facto racist. I generally stick with the definition that it's racist if it implies one race is better than another. Doesn't seem to be the case here. Most demographics have scholarships for members of their own demographic.

Now, given whites are still the majority the optics of this are bad, but it doesn't offend me.
 
well, it does say at least 25% caucasian, so dude can be as black as Tiger Woods and still qualify. Or maybe even Obama (Hawaiian, Kenyan, Muslim Terrorist--if the Becklodytes are to be believed)?

and lol at the white dude. I don't think this is racist, but he sure looks like a young clansman with his creepy eyes and sweaty/angry face. haha.

Not racist. It's all about filling quotas....wait....whites only?

Actually apparently you only have to be 25% white. I think you should be allowed to give your money specifically to any group that you'd like regardless of public opinion.

You don't see me whining because it excludes women. NOT my money, not my business.
 
i not watching a video...wheres the article?

Here's a break down of it.
Asian report interviewing A white guy and a stereo-typical Angry Black man.
White Guy: I created this scholorship because not all whites are rich and able to afford school
Black Guy: All blacks are economically disadvantaged and need all the help we can get.
White Guy: I can't go to the bank and say, hey I'm white give me some money.
Black Guy: Oh, oh, they'll give you a better rate than a black man.

That's as far as I got because I can't stand to watch people that act this way.

So essentially, those that stand up for Blacks and Minorities getting scholarships and special incentives and awards based on being a minority are proclaiming that race is somehow inferior to another. Instead of acting like equals, they want to act inferior and continue to play the race card. A card frankly that has been so overused, it's not just a blank piece of paper with no writing on it.
