This has been a question I have been pondering for the last few years. Many years ago I would never have thought of this since most upper management people were white so I really didn't have to deal with discrimination unless I saw one of my friends get discriminated against or heard them use it as an excuse as to why they didn't get promoted. In the last fifteen years or so I notice that there are more non-white people in higher positions. They are in positions to promote and deny promotions to other people. I'm not saying that every white person who gets turned down for a promotion is the victim of prejudice but with an increasing number of non-white managers one has to wonder if a small percentage of those managers might have certain prejudices against white people. Such prejudices could lead to white people getting discriminated against. Does anyone think this is a possibility or are the only people capable of being prejudice are white people?
Jim crow was a Democrat big government idea... your partyAre there black people who hate white people? Sure. Absolutely.
White bigots seem to believe this excuses their own discrimination. If you catch them being a bigot, they whip out the old Tu Quoque Fallacy quicker than you can say, "Jim Crow made me do it!"

Jim Crow was a Conservative idea- using government to enforce 'morality'- your ideology.

You haven't been paying attention very much.

Most people are prejudiced. Just most of us try not to let our prejudices control our reason.
As a white person though, I cannot recall an instance where I have ever been discriminated against based upon my skin color.
I have been discriminated against because I'm gay and a woman...as a Caucasian? Never.
You know, and I'm not doubting you, but I've asked some gays that I know if the have experienced discrimination, and unanimously they answer "no". Now, they will say that some people look at them funny or whatnot, but not actual discrimination.
Yep. It was bible-thumping Christian conservatives who supported Jim Crow. Racists were right wing Democrats then, and are right wing Republicans today.

What has remained pretty consistent is the area of the country, not the political party.
