Years ago, non-whites used to try to present as white. Latinos, Arabs, some Indians and lighter-skinned blacks would avoid the sun, try to use a white accent, and take white-sounding names. They were seeking advantage, because being seen as white was advantageous. Today, we see the reverse. Whites try to identify as non-whites wherever they can. They're faking college applications, posting pistures of their skin tone on Twitter to justify their use of dark-skinned emojis, perming their hair to make afros, reverting from white names like Neil to ancestral names like Kamal. As before, they are seeking advantage, because being seen as non-white is advantageous. And we're angry at them - for arrogating the special privileges of the non-whites.
