Portland State University Offers Course Teaching How to “Make Whiteness Strange”

All they have to do to marginalize America’s white population into total irrelevance is wait for current law to take full effect. But that would require waiting a few decades, and liberals are impatient:

According to Portland State University Professor’s Rachel Sanders’ “White Privilege” course, “whiteness” must be dismantled if racial justice will ever be achieved.

The course description states that “whiteness is the lynchpin of structures of racial meaning and racial inequality in the United States” and claims that “to preserve whiteness is to preserve racial injustice.”

Students taking the course will “endeavor to make whiteness strange.” In order to make whiteness strange, the description says students must “interrogate whiteness as an unstable legal, political, social, and cultural construction.”

The course readings and concepts are drawn, in part, from the field of “critical race theory.” According to Harvard University, critical race theory “combine[s] progressive political struggles for racial justice with critiques of the conventional legal and scholarly norms which are themselves viewed as part of the illegitimate hierarchies that need to be changed.”

That is, progressives don’t just want to marginalize white people. That’s only a means to an end. The end is to destroy the civilization white people created.

Abolish-Whiteness

In other words, abolish Western Civilization.

So white privilege is going to be replaced with homosexual privilege?

There is a global war on white people. Make no mistake about it. And many are liberal whites.

This phrase sounds a lot like "Keep Portland Weird." If we make whiteness strange and keep Portland weird...

>> I am and I know millions more are [sick of this].

Maybe they’ll incorrectly read our silence as approval or indifference, and attempt to act on their fantasies.

That ought to be fun. We outnumber them five or six to one, depending on how many stupid people of pallor side with them.

Here is my racist rant: Over the course of the past five hundred years light skinned Europeans who looked like me with a cross in one hand and Enlightenment science in the other essentially conquered and in part colonized this planet. No other race before ever came close to accomplishing this. The results of that have been benign for the vast majority of humanity. In fact without the combination of a Judeo Christian morality that usually kept the conquerors from eradicating the conquered peoples en masse and the scientific advancements in medicine and science OUR Enlightenment provided only a small fraction of the seven billion or souls living on this orb would even be here. I’m not at all inclined to apologize much less pay “reparations”, and in fact I think a thank you would be in order.

Well, they're not strange. And they're certainly not bigots. It's just that everyone else is, except for them.

If blacks ever became the majority don’t think for a minute there wouldn’t be black privilege.

You are evil unless you embrace dhimmitude / untouchable status.
If you accept your morally inferior status, you will be tolerated.
If you cheerlead your inferiority, you’ll be upgraded to second class status and get to lead your underclass.
