    I agree with dude, but here is my thoughts for Maryanna.

    I feel there is mistreatment in every race of people...There is racism in all races..many white people face racism from other races, blacks face it, Latinos face racism also Arabic people feel racism.To say you are the only race so mistreated is not an accurate statement..Few examples 6 million Jewish people was murdered due to racism and antisemitism but you do not hear them go boo hoo about it. Noe back in the later part of Roman History burnt Christians hanging on stakes at his stadium for fun and also he thought it provided enough light for his races. Many American Indians was forced from their lands and made to march many miles, men women and children died along the way and also they had blankets laden with small pox in order to decrease their numbers..Now i cited just a few incidents of racism and hatred towards other races and religious group to show you that you can not stake claim on being the only down trodden race.
