University Of North Carolina Diversity Workshop Brands Beige Band-Aids As ‘White Privilege’
Daily Caller ^ | 4/1/16 | Eric Owens

A “cultural competency workshop” at the taxpayer-funded University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is assigning scores to students based on how much “white privilege” they allegedly have.

The “cultural competency” workshop, which appears to be mandatory for certain students, requires participants to “examine white privilege and how it is more powerful than other types of benefits afforded by society” by completing surveys, reports Campus Reform.

“I can choose blemish cover or bandages in ‘flesh’ color and have them more or less match the color of my skin,” one statement on the surveys says.

Special: Melissa McCarthy Stuns Hollywood by Dropping 55 lbs in 40 Days Students are then supposed to choose a number between zero and five based on how closely their skin color matches the peachy color of many adhesive bandages.

“I can turn on the television or open to the front page of the newspaper and see people of my race widely and positively represented,” reads another question on the University of North Carolina “white privilege” survey.

Special: Controversial Military Flashlight Now Available to the Public “I can swear, dress in secondhand clothes, or not answer letters, without having people attribute these choices to the bad morals, the poverty, or the illiteracy of my races,” reads a third statement.

The workshop, which could last many long hours, students are warned, also includes a separate “cultural competency” survey designed to determine how rich or poor students are.

Everything is pure to those whose hearts are pure. But nothing is pure to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, because their minds and consciences are corrupted.

I've been using clear band-aids for years. Does that make me transparent?

By the transparent ones, jerk

Or get folks to call the customer-service number and ask for pigment enhanced bandaids.

This is silly. Want to know how silly? I prefer bandaids that express my sense of style. The ones I have now were two boxes for the price of one Curad Bandaids with very excellent cartoon pictures of "Maya and Miquel".

I thought this bears repeating. Very profound!

I go out of my way to wear tacky and gaudy band aids as well. I have proudly worn a business suit and gave a business presentation wearing a Hello Kitty band aid in full view from the kids first aid kit.

Chapel Hill is, of course, where a fraudulent African American studies program was established, no doubt cheered by all as necessary, vital and on an intellectual par with the economics and mathematics departments.

The program, unsurprisingly, was found to have produced fraudulent, even illiterate, ‘graduates.’ Any sensible person would ask how such ‘studies’ (which are little more than political indoctrination and badly-cropped history) could produce anything else but the widespread nature of these programs is proof that the Reparations Culture is already thriving.

Those who have no business on a university campus are given sinecures to patronize them and keep them quiet while the cowardly administrations seek a few minutes of respite from the racial drumbeating.

How many white people were admitted to UNC because of the color of the skin?

Johnson & Johnson are racists.

Oh, and white gauze is racist, too.
