Unfortunately, in current society, only white Protestant males are capable of discrimination. Everyone else is a victim.

I hope you are being sarcastic.
I am merely stating what the general view in society is. Think about it...what is the success rate for so-called reverse discrimination cases? There's no doubt that it exists, but society doesn't acknowledge it. You're white, you're male, so you're the problem. Most of the rest of society is pretty comfortable with that, I think.

As Wolf notes, when was the last time the UNCF gave a white kid college money? Never. So it is discriminatory. However, no one is going to tell the UNCF they are discriminatory, because, in this country, at this time, the accepted direction of discrimination is *from* white people, mostly male, *to* everyone else. This perception then makes any action on the part of the allegedly downtrodden (at least, to behave in any way they want short of violence) justified, and therefore allowable.

I'm sure that there are rare exceptions to this generalization, but they are so rare that none come immediately to mind.
