White people find it offensive to constantly stereotype them based on the color of their skin. The whole statement of white privilege rings hollow to a poor white family living homeless on the streets, while a wealthy African American executive drives by in his Mercedes.

At some level, this constant emphasis on race promotes racism.

Nothing illustrates the "black" privilege more than the story of Gay, the President of Harvard University, whose limited academic career includes publishing less than a dozen papers (many plagiarized) and being elevated to President when no one else of any other race would have attained her position if they were white or Asian.

Asians and Jews last I read were minorities. Jews suffer disproportionately from hate crimes, yet a black woman as President of the University can get away with doing nothing to address antisemitism on campus or Asian discrimination in the admissions office, while hounding anyone that says something that might offend those identity groups, she feels deserves special (discriminatory) treatment.

It is time to end this constant focus on race. It is turning the country towards racism. As a white person with an Asian wife and a son and daughter who both married Africans, I won't claim we don't see color, simply that it does not matter. MLK said it best, what matters is character... and the continued focus on skin color by any individual is a sign of a lack of character.

We should all strive to make skin color irrelevant, ideally that will come naturally, but for those that can't get there naturally, they should learn not to act on their bigotry. And that includes people like Gay, a black woman, given tremendous responsibilities and who has shown a deep personal flaw in her character in the last few months. Perhaps it's time for her to have sensitivity training regarding what it feels like to be Jewish or Asian, since she does not seem to see beyond her own skin color.
