	White guilt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		White guilt refers to feelings of guilt said to be experienced by some people of European descent when they consider present or past wrongs committed by their ancestors against natives of conquered and colonised lands.
		White guilt is said to result in a feeling of lost moral authority on the part of some whites, so that they feel uncomfortable discussing issues of race and are very anxious to avoid being seen as racist.
		One controversial issue related to white guilt is the demand for reparations from contemporary governments for their nations past involvement in slavery, or for other crimes committed against Africans.

	Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Guilt (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		Guilt is a word describing many concepts related to a negative emotion or condition caused by actions which are, or are believed to be, morally wrong.
		Guilt and its causes, merits, and demerits is a common theme in psychology and psychiatry.

	Artist Thinker » White Guilt and the Western Past (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		I call this white guilt not because it is a guilt of conscience but because people stigmatized with moral crimes–here racism and imperialism–lack moral authority and so act guiltily whether they feel guilt or not.
		White guilt is a vacuum of moral authority visited on the present by the shames of the past.
		Possibly white guilt’s worst effect is that it does not permit whites–and nonwhites–to appreciate something extraordinary: the fact that whites in America, and even elsewhere in the West, have achieved a truly remarkable moral transformation.

	The age of white guilt: and the disappearance of the black individual
		Kindness in whites always came as a mild surprise and was accepted with a gratitude that I later understood to be a bit humiliating.
		White guilt is literally a vacuum of moral authority in matters of race, equality, and opportunity that comes from the association of mere white skin with America's historical racism.
		White guilt held out the promise of a preferential life in recompense for past injustice, and the protest identity seemed the best way to keep that promise alive.

	The Psychology of White Guilt \| Turnabout
		When spoken by whites — “whites should not prefer whites to other races” — the statement is usually pronounced with an assured superiority and moral self-righteousness (and one almost expects the speaker to add: “And it takes an enlightened White like myself to realize and preach this undiluted moral truth!”).
		It hardly compares to the guilt of a failure to love, or an incapacity to love, or the guilt of moral collapse before anxiety, or the guilt of leaving one’s family or environment in the pursuit of something greater, or the guilt of a life of pride, etc.
		“White guilt” is a concept; I don’t know how real it is. It is peddled as if it’s real, and I’m sure there are some whites who buy into it, just as there are some whites who feel guilty for eating at McDonald’s, or for watching the Simpsons, or for being 10 pounds overweight.

		It also overlooked the fact that white guilt is fl power and that the reprimand of a single fl professor would call out the biggest guns in the fl establishment.
		Whites simply come to a place with fls where they feel no authority to speak or judge and where they sense a great risk of being seen as racist.
		The reason for this is that white guilt allows institutions to respond only with deference - deferring to the greater moral authority of minorities by lowering standards, and remaining mute to minority mediocrity, to save the institution from the racist label.

	white trash vs white guilt : Indybay
		The notion of white privilege is a myth, rhetorical convenience for the few wealthy white people to project a need of redemption on groups viewed though a lens of otherness so they may absolve themselves of the guilt from having excess money and resource.
		This basis in guilt that the extreme leftist/anarchist influenced scenes are built upon becomes rather evident when one looks at the throngs of protesters who throw themselves before eager cops to be victimized and cast in the role of martyr.
		However the suffering that a poor white kid’s family has gone through can be preyed upon by right wing groups who tell them that his or her suffering is the fault of minorities for whatever reason.

	Shelby Steele: The Double Bind of Race and Guilt (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		One reason for this is that white American motivation in racial matters has gone largely unexamined, except to attribute support for policies like affirmative action to white goodwill and nonsupport to white racism.
		The stigma of whites as racists mandates that they redeem the nation from its racist history but then weakens their authority to enforce the very democratic principles that true redemption would require.
		White racism made America illegitimate by its own terms, not a new nation after all but an “old world” nation that used God as an excuse for its oppression and exploitation, a pretender to reason and civilization.

		Whites live with this constant pressure of having to demonstrate to the world that they’re not bigots, and this manifests itself in many facets of American life."
		It is up to the parents of the fl children to instil confidence in them that they can just be as good as any successful white or Asian guy, but nobody is going to serve them the baked cake on their plate.

		White guilt morally and culturally disarms the West.
		To segregate white racism or colonialism out from murderous African tribalism; institutionalized sexism which touches virtually all cultures; or a host of other pernicious "isms" is politicized hypocrisy.

	newsobserver.com \| Black critic tackles 'white guilt'
		Steele believes that whites came to understand the awful reality of racism during the Civil Rights era and condemned it soundly through legislation and other means.
		Instead he argues that it is usually the whites who see themselves as racially progressives -- the well educated, the upwardly mobile, the academic and liberal elite -- who do the most to impede true racial progress.
		To take one example, Steele says that because whites are so deeply invested in proving their own racial sensitivity, they make no demands on fls for accountability.

		I have since learned that to be nuetral is to fully accept this white supremacist society that we live in...something that I can't bare the thought of.
		You cannot even begin to fathom how sickeningly entrenched the tentacles of power and the establishment are in the country clubs and old boys networks and exclusive communities because you are too Mexican, too foreign to even catch a glimpse of their world or a crumb off their tables.

		At auctions, white servants were often purchased in bunches by men known as “soul drivers,” who’d chain groups of newly arrived white slaves together and herd them on foot through rural areas, selling them at a profit.
		White convict laborers had dribbled into the colonies throughout the 1600s, but they may have comprised as much as a quarter of ALL white colonial immigrants—free or bound—in the 1700s.106 During the period in which Thomas Goad was transported to Maryland, convicts comprised an estimated forty percent of everyone who entered that state from overseas.
		Whites comprised the majority of colonial slave laborers through most of the 1600s.123 Black slaves reached a numerical parity with white servants sometime late in that century or early in the 1700s.124 The idea of racial supremacy had little to do with the gradual shift from white to fl slavery.
