Martin Luther King reminded us that if we allow injustices to continue, sooner or later they will affect us personally. It is hard to prove discrimination in societies pervaded by prejudice. It is always possible to find something to attack if you look for it-in any human being. Surely, such a species should be set in a playpen to amuse itself while women take the burden of responsibility for managing society, raising children, and cooking dinner. If this were the prevailing ideology, individual acts that challenged the definition could be fit into it, and protests by male groups would be seen as resulting from hormonally caused mood swings.
Whites see black men in white neighborhoods or expensive shops as predators.
Whites see black women in rich white neighborhoods as maids or nannies but as prostitutes on city streets and shoplifters in expensive shops. This is prejudice, prejudgment of people based on their inherent, unchangeable sex or color. Governments, religions, institutions, and cultural groups that do not openly condone male violence toward women countenance it as a private act outside their provenance. Almost all development projects in Africa focus on men. Although women are the farmers in most of Africa, very little help has been channeled to them.
