FOXNews.com - Va Sen. Jim Webb says in column that government racial diversity programs should be ended

FOXNews.com - Va Sen. Jim Webb says in column that government racial diversity programs should be ended: "'The injustices endured by black Americans at the hands of their own government have no parallel in our history, not only during the period of slavery but also in the Jim Crow era that followed,' he wrote.

Immigrants from Asia, Latin America and Africa in recent decades knew no such discrimination from the government, he wrote, 'and in fact have frequently been the beneficiaries of special government programs. The same cannot be said of many hardworking white Americans, including those whose roots in America go back more than 200 years.'"
