The argument against "reverse racism" is that racism is "prejudice plus power" so while many minorities may be prejudice they don't have power to act on it.

- dragonwriter 11y agoPower always exists within a particular context. If you have the power in a context to get a code of conduct defined which licenses prejudice in your group's favor, and punishes it when it is against your group, it is a pretty strained claim to argue that its only those prejudiced against you in that context that are acting with a combination of prejudice and power.
