Affirmative action is not just limited to blacks, women get it also. Even gay ppl regardless of race.

United Negro College Fund is a fund that helps blacks find scholarships that they might qualify for. It's not a scholarship in and of itself

The other groups you mentioned are just cults, so AA and UNCF have no business being mentioned w/ those.

For example, if someone points out that the crime rate among blacks is higher than the crime rates among whites and Asians, he risks being called a racist. That's unfortunate.

Well, there are a million black-oriented clubs and organizations. A specifically white organization, or even an entire league, would be our racial society at last coming full circle. The downfall (if you want to call a failure at such an enterprise as a "downfall"), is that it is supposedly a professional league. That's a clear legal violation. So I doubt such a league would ever see the light of day.

I also was amused by the idea that whites like basketball "played with fundamentals" rather than streetball. Yeah, right.

Should be some great shooting in that league.
