Racist, why yes

People think I cannot be racist, I am white (kind of, I call myself mutt, but most of the ancestory is European), I chose to bus from the suburbs to the inner city for high school, I not only go to a historically African demonination church but sing in the senoir choir, and that is just the start of a rather long list of thing one would not expect of the given mold of me.  But yes I am racist, just not the usual definition of white person racist.

I think whites are given the keys to run the world, and still cannot make the self worth much.  I think Asians are culturally pushed to be better.  Blacks are told by society that they are worth less, but many still stand up.

So when someone does good that is white or Asian I see it as expected, when they are black I think 'good for them'.

So yes, I am racist, just not in the usual way

I love being a geek

My best friend and I are having a discussion about whether we can call Transformers a metaphor for what is happening in America, or just a warning of what could happen.
