TEARS WE CANNOT STOP: A Sermon to White America

By Michael Eric Dyson

St. Martin’s Press. 228 pp. $24.99

“Hey, fellow white guys! It’s about to be a new year. And there’s a few things we think you can do a little bit better in 2017.”

Thus began MTV News’s “2017 New Years Resolutions for White Guys,” one of the Internet’s most transcendentally awful experiments in wishful viral-video-making of the past year. In the 88-second clip, various young MTV staffers, spanning multiple ethnicities, proceed to lecture “white guys” for their offenses to liberal identity politics, such as mansplaining, suggesting that all lives matter and saying “woke.” The video grates, both for its pedantic, generalizing message and because it was obviously created with the expectation of countless shares among knowing lefties. Instead, the mockery and backlash was such that MTV took it down less than 48 hours later.

Everywhere on this planet where you see progress,stability,civility and prosperity you see that *white* people are responsible...either directly or indirectly.

He just oozes jealousy——of whites.

He wishes he was white.

Pathetic.

Y’know, only whites could have created a society where morons like this could express this sort of drivel and not be ridiculed to death.

That is a good video, thanks for posting it. I’ve not heard of Ann Marie Waters before but will certainly look for more of her stuff.

I'm unapologetically Caucasian and unapologetically proud to have been a part of Western Civilization and its unparalleled benefits to mankind.

Tho not without its dark moments, the light it has shone into the grimness of human existence is without equal in history.

The unbridled racism among many of this country's blacks is a desecration of the graves of the 600,000 white men who gave their lives in the Civil War.

Better to have picked our own cotton.

I thought it was a requirement to have an anti-white racist on the faculties of major universities. /s

By blaming everything on Whitey, they are allowed to excuse their own complete failure as humans.

It reminds me of the biggest Muslim apologists being Christians from the Middle East like Kofi Anan, having internalized the inferiority complex Muslims heap upon them, a kind of cultural Stockholm syndrome reinforced as a survival reflex.
What is ironic about whites in the West doing it is that they are voluntarily demanding that their peers becoming an untouchable caste a la India’s caste system, while being the demographic majority. They think that it is moral to invert the perceived social structure of the 1950s in the name of fairness.

Ever noticed that Moslems don't apologize?
They like winners, the “strong horse.”
I am beginning to think we also need to bring back the concept of “race traitor.” Trying to be color blind just creates idiots like this.

“I am beginning to think we also need to bring back the concept of “race traitor.” Trying to be color blind just creates idiots like this. “

I agree with you on the color blind part. As for the race traitor bit, blacks tend to accuse fellow blacks who want to study and work hard of “acting white”. There are sometimes severe consequences for this behavior. The concept of race traitor is alive, but due to the self-loathing conditioning of the last fifty years, it is a one sided concept. Color trumps culture. It seems almost deliberately opposite.

Though I’ll never hope to attain membership in that august lineup, I’m very grateful for having been a tiny part of one of the societies that nurtured and revered them, and for your kind post.

If white folks are so terrible, everyone should get as far away from us as possible. Start now!
