So you guys on here are in a uproar over this scholarship because it might help some minority kid. The guy giving it is white and so you feel he is betraying his race. Well, now you know how I feel when some black person shows up at a tea party rally.
I don't have a problem with the minority part, I think it should be available to the poor not just the minority.
Color shouldn't even be an issue, It should be available to anyone who is poor. It wouldn't surprize me if he changes the criteria after people start complaining.
Why do ignorant racists continually contradict themselves???...oh yeah because they are ignorant!!!
You are correct color SHOULD NOT be an issues but as long as we have ignorant azzholes in S.A. a country which they invaded, continually making race an issue and longing for the days of apartheid, and as long as the same type of loon inhabits this country spewing the same non sense than race always comes into play.
These American breeds of idiots cry that everything should be equal and color blind yet they continually harp on racial superiority and a need to establish privileged status for ONLY white people.
One such group uses the obviously racist and inflammatory symbol below, their leader continually instigated and created issues that resulted in episodes of racial violence and animus.
He was eventually brutally murdered by people he allegedly tried to cheat and mis-treat.
There are many theories but we really don't know the truth yet.

Pretty funny how certain white people in this thread wail and moan about the scholarship that targets minorities yet ignore the HUNDREDS of scholarships available to WHITE PEOPLE ONLY!!!!
REALLY???? Please show me a scholarship from a MAJOR corporation that says it is for whites ONLY!!!

That's the contradiction many minorities see when dealing with whites, they champion equal opportunity while stacking the deck in their favor.
No one stacks anything. You get out of life what you put into it. PERIOD

Someone mentioned poor whites, it's not minorities that exclude them from higher education it's other whites that overlook them because they come from the "lower" classes!!...they are then overlooked for those scholarships targeted at only White People.
Again please show me a scholarship from a MAJOR corporation that says it is for WHITES only!

These same underprivileged whites are eligible for the same scholarships they target minority groups, which include the families unable to afford college.
Someone mentioned that this is about "White Guilt" one of the new "nationalist" buzzwords, I would venture that for Gates it's not about white guilt, rather it's about seeing, living, and experience White privilege and simply wanting to enable other people that privilege, which according to some of the replies in this post, is very upsetting to those who take such privilege for granted until that exclusive privilege is threatened.
To exclude ANY child in need is WRONG! If scholarships are going to be offered they should go to the child that needs it the most no matter what their skin color.

There are numerous threads that list "White Only" scholarships, you will find very little of the feigned outrage concearning those scholarships that you see here.
Once again show me a scholarship from a MAJOR corporation that says it is for whites ONLY!

Please don't try the elementary level diversion it doesn't work!!!
What I said and what you are unable to discredit is that there are hundreds of scholarships for Whites Only and they have been shown on this board!!
Were you up in arms about those scholarships???
Please show these posts of outrage??
No where did I mention the phrase "Major Corporations" so please cease your attempt to skew my statement!!
I find it a bit odd that Asians would be included in his scholarships. Generally, Asians can afford to send their kids to college, and Asian students don't have any problems qualifying for entry into the top universities. Actually, the academic bar is set higher for Asians since there are too many eligible students applying for these schools.
So if the purpose of the Millennium Scholarships is financial help, Asian don't need it. And if its purpose is to encourage academic excellence, Asian students don't need that encouragement either, as their parents have that under control also.
So if I could, I would tell Bill Gates to stuff it, and have his scholarship fund exclude Asians along with white students.
I feel bad for all the white kids living in poverty conditions, clearly no one cares about them.
Rand Paul says that a businesses has a right to give services exclusively to ONLYWhites, teabaggers defend Rand Paul.
Bill Gates decides to give a scholarship to minorities and teabaggers go nuts, no pun intended.

LOL! No I am not going to search. YOU made the claim it is up to YOU to back it up! As for the major corporations that is what this thread is about a MAJOR corporation giving scholarships to any group EXCEPT one. So either back up what you say or keep quite.
This isn't from a major corporation.
It's from two people And their foundation.
Bill & Melinda.
Their money and money given to their foundation by people of all races.
If you want to give to stormfront and the klans scholarship program for grand wizards, go right ahead.
LOL oh yes and were did they get all of their money???? From the public buying their products!
I don't think any group should be excluded from getting help!!! Sad that others feel it is ok.
And what the hell is stormfront anyway?
