#14  re #4:The only reason I have heard of it is that a couple of good friends of mine work (or worked - they may be retired by now) there. They are as liberal a pair as any I have met.

#13  This seems to be the latest racist balderdash permeating universities these days. No original thought in universities these days just lemmings.

#11  How to reduce the impact of White Privilege?
Why, get your skin toner and melanin extraction supplements and make yourself white.

Then see who is privileged.

#9  How about a bullet in the brain, Jimerson? That will reduce your privilege quite a fucking bit.

They are really doing everything they can to start a race war, aren't they?

#7  (i) It will be hosted by a white professor, Randall Jimerson, who teaches history
I wonder if Randy is familiar with the term Judenrat?

(ii) whites have 10 times the wealth than blacks or Hispanics
I'm familiar with this kind of rhetoric - every historically literate Jew is. But I never heard it applied to a (well armed) majority.

#6  According to CNN (which these numbers could be suspect considering the source) whites have 10 times the wealth than blacks or Hispanics.

Consider the 'economic miracles' of the Far East, Japan, S.Korea, Taiwan, and now China. They did it by adopting (Northern) Western European Civilization, its techniques and processes. Not to mention developing a large popluation that could read, write, and articulate the modern international language, English. Today's language of science, technology, aviation, medicine, etc. rather than promoting their own tribal languages.

BTW, as an exercise in stats, blacks make up 12 percent of the general population, of which one third are reported to live in poverty (not Haitian poverty). That's about 4 percent of the overall population. The white population makes up about 75 percent of the population of which ten percent live in poverty or 7.5 percent of the general population. So you are twice as likely to be a poor white than a poor black. Remember that white privilege.

#2  Globalists. The only thing preventing the world from entering the dark ages is "the shining light on the hill" (a.k.a. U.S.A.). So how to distinguish that light...

There are 321.4 million people in the U.S.. Open the borders to the 7.4 BILLION people around the world to just come in and overrun the current population.

According to CNN (which these numbers could be suspect considering the source) whites have 10 times the wealth than blacks or Hispanics.

Therefore, it is really not white privilege that is under attack, it's a campaign to take what is theirs and spread the wealth.

#1  Western Washington University is in Bellingham Wa. Fairly close to the Canadian border. Last I was there it did not have a very large black population. Odd seeing this sort of thing there and not, for example, The University of Washington.

I wonder how long before its mandatory. I give it three years.
