Steeltrap: I'm sorry that my post "pissed you off"; I know race/ethnic discussions can get agrivating but I don't feel that've said anything that can be called "immature"
KnowlegeEternal: I was in no way attacking you, African Americans, or the struggle that many people went through with slavery. I used reparations as an example because it was the first thing that came to mind. I don't pretend to know everything there is to know about race relations, and yes I do agree with you that more scholarships should exist, but I would just like to point out that when I was looking at minority scholarships, they all gave priority to African Americans and with all the Affirmative Action actions and lawsuits, it isn't as if African American's don't receive "educational investments."
But, I am getting totally off topic! If you go back to my original post, you will notice that my question was directed towards the difference be ignorance and race/ethnocentricism.
