Nice!

As I have stated, there is tremendous public pressure on any organization that is not minority bent to not be exclusive while minority organizations have no pressure re exclusivity...indeed, may have encouragement.
Majorities may not be exclusive..that is racist. Minorities may be exclusive, that is not racist.
Thus:
We have a Black Entertainment Network...could we actually have a White Entertainment Network?
We have Historic Black Colleges and Universities...could we have a white counterpart?
We have the US Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and the US Black Chamber of Commerce...but you may not have one tagged "white".
The rule is that the majority must include all in their organizations while minority organizations may be specifically targeted to their minority constituents.
billybud wrote:Irish or Scottish organizations are a minority set of "White"...and exist, like black or hispanic organizations do...for their members interests.
But do not try European American Actors Awards...or European American Chamber of Commerce.
European American is a pseudonym for White...and thus may not be exclusive or they would be racist.

Ask any hairdresser about African American Hair versus European. So I absolutely agree with Mr. Billybud, and others, recognizing differences is positive, pretending they don't exist is stupidity and retrogrades are ability to develop not races, but individuals.
