Ibram Kendi: ‘Too Many White People' Believe They Can't Be Racist if They Adopt Black Children
2020-09-27
[Breitbart] Ibram X. Kendi
(Henry Rogers)
director of Boston University’s Center for Antiracist Research, wrote on Saturday that white people who adopt black children may be "racist," joining a growing group of Democrats and leftists commenting on Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s Haitian son and daughter.

Kendi wrote on social media: "Some White colonizers ’adopted" Black children. They ’civilized’ these ’savage’ children in the ’superior’ ways of White people, while using them as props in their lifelong pictures of denial, while cutting the biological parents of these children out of the picture of humanity."

"And whether this is Barrett or not is not the point," he continued. "It is a belief too many White people have: if they have or adopt a child of color, then they can’t be racist."

Kendi concluded, "I’m challenging the idea that White parents of kids of color are inherently ’not racist’ and the bots completely change what I’m saying to ’White parents of kids of color are inherently racist.’ These live and fake bots are good at their propaganda. Let’s not argue with them."

#12  Not that I care that much, but I am curious what one would have to do to "prove" to the left that they were not racist.

#11  Ah, yes, Haiti...and the Clinton Foundation.....

#10  Schumer et al are probably scouring the length and breadth of Haiti for people who, in exchange for good and valuable consideration, are willing to play the role of the biological parents of ACB's adopted kids.

#9  It'll be great when/if a critical mass of normies finally figure out that no amount of supplication and "good deeds" will ever be enough for these people.

Then we can finally have true change.

BTW, Colin Kaepernick was adopted by White parents and Barack Obama was effectively raised by his White grandmother.

#8   Nothing says "racism" like providing a stable two parent home environment.

That's not sarcasm. That's actually what the Left believes these days. Yes, they really believe that.

#7  So he's a BU, eh? Between this asshole and AOC being a BU graduate, it makes you wonder (or not) how poor a school they've become once John Silber left as BU's president.

#6  So...
"Some White Gay colonizers ’adopted" Black children. They ’civilized’ these ’savage’ children in the ’superior’ ways of White Gay people, while using them as props in their lifelong pictures of denial, while cutting the biological parents of these children out of the picture of humanity."

Yeah, I guess it works.

#5  What "research" is required if these people believe that whites are a priori racist?

#4  WTF is a Center for Antiracist Research, anyway?

It's a fiction to get $10 million reparations from Jack Dorsey.

Love and care, nurturing, sending them to school each day and on to college. Little more evidence of systemic hate and racism needed here.

[sarc off]
