After re-reading my post, I think I should clarify myself.
I was referring to the type of thing that was posted under "Issues" in the Greek Life forum.
That is, whenever an African-American does anything positive, they are immediately attacked for it, especially by other African-Americans. Like one person posted, she has her degree. (So she's obviously educated). Her family thinks she "talks white". So she takes flak for the fact that she went out there, worked her butt off, and bettered herself.
This type of thing is both something I've observed and something that I've discussed in various instances (from talks with friends (of a variety of races) to classrooms).
I never said that I had it any easier, any worse, or the same as you. I just think that it takes a lot more for a black person in America to better themselves than it does other races right now, and I think that it's got a lot to do with African-American culture as a whole.
