there have been some highly qualified nonwhite actresses that have been mentioned on here. maybe this is just affirmative action for untalented or minimally talented white actresses?

How on earth could whites be proud of their ancestors and culture?

Or electricity, X-Rays,cars, Albert Einstein, Gutenberg, computers, Internet, U.S of A etc. Just to name a few.
Speaking of bigotry, your post pretty much sounds like just that.

Your post is utterly dumb and extremely ignorant. If you think you can lump me together with those people (Antisemitism, Hitler etc. ), then you're dead wrong.

Btw. Antisemitism is not a "white-thing", unfortunately. You'll find that in other countries as well. Especially in Muslim countries in Africa.
Visit your local Holocaust museum.

So what? There would not have been an outcry if it had been 10 Blacks, Asians, Hispanics etc. Get over over. Sometimes I'm wondering if it's just this forum here, or if people in general are so anal about everything.

YES, there would be an outcry. since hollywood is overwhelmingly white, it would be a very obvious attmept to put them on the cover, solely not based on merit but on some other agenda.

Why will you only let me lump you into the group if they are good, but I can't lump you into a group that is bad?

Is George Bush not an American and white, just because you don't like him? That is silly.

Hitler was white, so is Bill Gates. If you take one as your own, you have to take them all.

No. You don't get the point. We are talking about being proud of something ( as if one can be proud of his race, didn't accomplish anything).

You said I couldn't lump you in with "those people"(hitler). So why do you get to CHOOSE who I lump you together with?
