I think its that way because of the historical and social context! If Jamaica had ruled half the world and white people had had to fight (relatively recently) for equal rights, it might be the other way round
But if they want equal rights then surely that just undermines the whole point, ie doing exactly what they are fighting against?
but thats the point theyve had to fight against inequality for a long time its produced that reaction. I think its just natural group behaviour. If your in the minority group/group with less status being taken the piss out of it means more to fight against it. Not that I condone any kind of prejudice but If your in a majority/powerful group it matters less
