BOSTON — During a guest lecture at Boston University on Monday, University of Washington Professor Robin DiAngelo told the audience a “dangerous white person” sees people as individuals rather than by skin color.
DiAngelo, whose main field of work is “whiteness studies,” added that those who say they were taught to treat everyone the same deny black people of their reality, she said.

DiAngelo’s comments were couched during a section of her talk titled “What Does It Mean To Be White” that discussed colorblindness and those who say “I was taught to treat everyone the same, or some version of that.”
“If you are being honest, you’ve probably said it,” she told the audience, then added that in reality no one in the room was taught to treat everyone the same. “Your parents could lecture you to do it [but] you don’t do it, you can’t do it, there is no human objectivity.”
She said when she hears people talk about treating everyone the same, it tells her “this person doesn’t understand basic socialization. This person doesn’t understand culture. This person is not self-aware.”...
‘When I hear a white person say this, what I am thinking is: ‘This is a dangerous white person. This is a white person who is going to need to deny my reality.’”

“I want to be clear that as I stand up here with authority and a voice on this topic, I’m reinforcing whiteness and the centrality of the white view,” she said. “I’d like to be a little less white, which means a little less oppressive, oblivious, defensive, ignorant and arrogant.”... She discussed how racism is systemic in the media, the family, religion, education, economics, language, and criminal justice.

Campus Reform can NOT come soon enough, I wish it could have started decades ago.
I guess they will have to rename all of those MLK Boulevards across the country then.
Will this make MLK a “dangerous BLACK person”?
Every time I read one of these new racist rationalizations I think this is the result of having too much time on our hands as a society.
I can only go with my own ‘reality’. I don’t know, nor care, about hers. I’ve got my own problems.
Sandy Ocasio, the All Out Communist, attended this cesspool.
That is crazy back@sswards!!!!
a “dangerous white person” sees people as individuals rather than by skin color...
Then I’m a dangerous SOB who minorities should stay clear of i guess.
And WTF?!?!?!?!!? is “white studies”?!?!!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Radical Marxists will change the dialogue 180 degrees if necessary, until they have a Stalinist regime firmly in place. Then they’ll send free thinkers to gulags regardless of race, color and creed.
It’s all about destroying us. Leftists fully intend to impoverish us, imprison us, and kill us. “Us” are productive patriotic citizens.
Plan accordingly.
“whiteness studies”?????
Didn’t read the whole thing but from the bit about a white who sees people as individuals is dangerous I get the impression the this woman is so full of S>>T the birds would bother pecking at her in search of excreted seeds!
How Killing Fields.
Boston University- is this the pithole where congresswoman occasional-cortex of NY attended??
They don’t need to be reformed.
They need to be abolished completely.
Our colleges have become the exact opposite of education.
I deal with people on the famed “content of character” plain. No matter what age they are, who they are, where they came from, what their origins are.
If they are straight up, truthful, and have integrity I really don’t see the need to not deal with them. It is all the other negative attributes that play into my decisions to network and interface with them, or not. No matter who they are.

White studies is an off shoot of black study departments which formulated Critical Race Theory. CRT was created by communists to explain why blacks do so poorly on the liberal plantation.
Nutshell: Everything bad that ever happened to a black is a white’s fault. White studies shames whites to submit to the black experience of being screwed over by whites.
Oh and pay reparations and shut up about it.
Well then they’ll have to die at some point.
Most are fake tough guy white bread college b.tches.
We’re not.
There is no pure black in nature. There are no absolutely black people on this planet. There are no pure white people. No human can pass the white-tissue test. We are ALL one shade or another of brown...except for albinos, who are pink.
Could some people just get over judging others by skin tone already?
I got a feeling not even all of the snowflake working white college grads will want their taxes spent on that.
Many will, but it will slice some votes from them and that’s a start.
