Pro-White Technology: So what?s new?
In reply to ProWI
Ok, I'll relate two incidents.
1st:
Back in the mid to late 80s while working as the lone black person at a computer software firm on long island, I was 'recruited' to pose for a promotional group picture. The photographer protested vehemently. In the end I was included in the series of pictures but only after the photographer left and returned with new lighting equipment.
He later pulled me aside and explained the difficulty of providing optimum lighting for mixed 'complexion' photography.
2nd:
In later years when those automatic hand dryers were first introduced in public bathrooms, I attempted to use one of them at an airport. I said attempted because it just wouldn't work for me.
Some white guys saw what was going on and after a good laugh one of them provided assistance in flashing his hand across the dryer so it would turn on for my usage.
They later got it right.

I like this subject but can't make time now to post, except to say that I always thought some of my old co-workers at JBC-Tv, namely the lighting techs, could have done a geat consulting business here.
But Massa Pro, Jah Jah is expecting and answer from you on page 2 of the Harry Belafonte thread. LOL.

" ... unconscious set of choices ..." is probably very close to the truth.
My problem with "white privilege" is that many ethnic groups, including Blacks, allow their own kind an unfair "x privilege". Mugabe, Idi Amin, Saddam, etc, were all doing this.
So discussions on "x privilege" very often amount to hypocrisy.
