Of course, this also means that the learning Bell Curve is also white privilege? Hard work, incentive, a great work ethic has nothing to do with success, only if you are white privilege? Our whole educational structure has to be re evaluated or revamped, those who teach in name only have to be replaced with those who encourage success. Students don’t study as they use to, now they’re too busy paying attention to their I phones and ignoring the teachers. I remember coming home from school, going out to play basket or hand ball, return for supper, ate, and spent 2 hours doing home work. If I was raised by an Asian “family”, I would have come home spent 2 hours doing home work, have supper and spend another 2 hours researching, and doing more more homework. There lies the difference, it isn’t a white thing, its the difference between a good student and a poor one, and we aren’t talking financial or social status.
You sort of stole my point. This woman speaks of “white privilege”. I spent 2 years living in Japan during my Naval service. 4 Japanese worked in my area EVERY day. In two years, I never saw any of the 4 be even one minute late! I also never saw any of them slacking off even one minute. Indeed, while all us “white” sailors were clowning around, being late, leaving for lunch early and so on and so on.
The Japanese were ALWAYS and I do mean ALWAYS working hard. In slack times, they would FIND something to do. Up and down the streets in Japan before 8 am, anyone that has been there will attest to company after company having all their employees out front doing calisthenics.
This woman is a real nut job and her motivation has more to do with “money” I suspect than making any point about anything. I don’t know exactly what the color of Japanese skin is. Never thought about it. But, it ain’t WHITE.
