Well...I think you're dealing with two factors...neither of which are necessarily racist.

On one hand you've got white guilt. A lot of white people have been tricked into thinking they owe a huge debt to blacks depite the fact that there are millions of black families and individuals living very comfortable lives in what you'd call upper or middle class walks of life. But most people are dupped into plans like this because, obviously, if you're not for it you're a racist. It's the same thing we do with jews. Back when Israel invaded Lebanon anyone who ever questioned whether or not it was right was labeled anti-semetic by a lot of media outlets. I know you're not exactly white, Darin's brother...but somehow this idea also gets extended to Asians as well (but not hispanics because they like to play the tormented minority card, too. Pussies.)

The second thing you're dealing with is simply black culture which is, I'm sad to say, pathetically contradictory. Everyone in the black community talks about moving themselves and their race forward, but as soon as someone actually does move forward in a walk of life not related to music or sports they're considered an "Uncle Tom" or a puppet of the white man. And, for some reason, "moving forward" usually means moving out of the ghetto which essentially means moving away from anyone like you. This especially includes rappers who move to Malibu and rap about how hard their lives are. Dipshits. A lot of blacks are also often brought up to regard their culture as more rich than other cultures. This is why things like black history month and the black movie awards exist. They're not better than any other cultural celebrations and are patently exclusionary...but it's "ethnic" so it's all ok (apparently).

The situation of your district is pretty unethical, but not really racist. Racism would be affirmative action...where people are awarded placement in schools and jobs based on race alone (read: anyone who's not white). Now THAT shit's just fucked up.
