Why stop at the Humanities?

Science is too white!

I am hopeful that snowflakes will not survive civilization.

” it presupposes that everything is timeless.”

Because some such things are timeless. A Humanities course without Shakespeare?

Their tuition is not worth the paper it’s printed on.

It’s all those feel good assignments handed out in the schools to make the minority’s feel smart. You realize they teach that Blacks built America don’t you?

No sympathy for the educators. They helped create the monsters.

LOL!!

But to roll, one must have power. Speaking of rolling, wasn’t it a white guy who tried to stop that 9/11 hijacking? Oh yeah he was a white guy. So that must be erased from history.

Didn’t some other Society try to rewrite the history books? Oh yeah thanks Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher that Society is erased as well.

The Greek and Roman texts are probably tougher reads. Oops.

“Students demand.”

I would invite them to leave.

As much as they hate it, white people have done some cool stuff.

When I graduated from HS I applied to several colleges and was accepted to all I applied to.

Oddly, I did not apply to Reed College though they sent me a scholarship totally unsolicited...

I chose not to investigate Reed as they were too kooky for my tastes even back then.

But, but, where will the teacher salaries come from?? If we erase all the white people, we erase all the money too. And I’m speaking about percentages. We are still a majority white country. So the majority of college students must be white. Okay I’m going down a rabbit hole and I should not speak any further.

In my opinion this is a bad thread. LOL. It’s just the type of thing that FR gets criticized for. Although it’s quite interesting.

Well, then, exactly HALF of “Dreams of my Father” (Barrack Obama)should be banned, as well.

Only great works of literature, by blacks, will be left. The library is going to look awful empty.

Does the pseudo-oppressed want to be oppressed, AND stupid?

Does this mean that the “Uncle Remus” series is out, as well?

This is Russian 1890 history redux all over again difference is it’s happening here in the United States! Indoctrination in schools and colleges exactly what happened during that time Russia fell into the hands of the communist led by the skulls full of mush!! Russia never recovered to its greatness again!

Makes me think of this scene from the M*A*S*H episode, “Big Mac” (aired originally Feb 25, 1975):

Trapper: Frank! What are you doing?

Frank Burns: Burning books.

Hawkeye: Oh. Any special reason, Dr. Hitler?

Frank Burns: One of the greatest living Americans is coming and I’m not going to let him see some of the trash that’s read around here.

Trapper: Plato’s Republic? The Life of Red Grange?

Hawkeye: Revolutionaries.

Frank Burns: Right!

Trapper: Robinson Crusoe?

Hawkeye: Everybody runs around half naked.

Trapper: Norman Mailer.

Frank Burns: It’s got *that word* in it.

Hawkeye: Frank, you burn one more book, I’m gonna give you a dancing lesson in the mine field. Now, knock it off, gnat brain!

Karl Marx was sort of white and European. Oppose him on that and watch their heads explode.

The only Reed graduate to ever amount to a hill of beans was Steve Jobs, and I’m not sure he graduated.
