The Smithsonian’s racist National Museum of African American History and Culture says that “the nuclear family,” “scientific method,””hard work,” “plan for future,” and “delayed gratification” are “aspects & assumptions of whiteness & white culture”

The Smithsonian’s racist National Museum of African American History and Culture just said that “the nuclear family,” “scientific method,””hard work,” “plan for future,” and “delayed gratification” are “aspects & assumptions of whiteness & white culture”

They said so in this chart. You can see a bigger version of the chart by clicking here and scrolling down: https://web.archive.org/web/20200603163659/https://nmaahc.si.edu/learn/talking-about-race/topics/whiteness

This is so unintentionally hilarious.

True, but being born in Thrace wouldn’t necessarily mean he wasn’t African in ethnicity. There was a lot of movement and migration around the Mediterranean in those days. Also, he was a slave, and slaves were commonly foreigners taken as captives or imported from foreign lands.

Sure, it could just be a spurious tradition that he was African, but sometimes tradition preserves facts that have been lost to history. Personally, I think the nature of his stories, which line up with well known African traditions and not so much with any European tradition, is probably the best evidence.

The Smithsonian acts as though these ‘white culture’ attributes only exist in the USA. Japanese seem to have similar attributes. Singapore would be another example.

I know a number of non-white Americans that share these values as well. They immigrated from Asia and India.

I saw a video of Tim Poole, who is half Korean. As you can imagine, he was highly offended.

Essentially, this museum published that whites are responsible and blacks are lazy and irresponsible. Wow! That is racist.

So, if black people have these attributes (and believe me, plenty of them do), is the Smithsonian calling them whitey? Honkey? Passing? Black cracker?

Just how insulting can those people be? Are those qualities listed to direct the black culture away from behaviors like politeness and standard English and a work ethic?

And the ultimate question: Are Antifa and BLM folks the representatives of blackness and black culture?

OK, one more ultimate question: Since they do not have many of those qualities, are Rob Reiner, Jim Carrey, Robert Deniro, Cher, Joy Behar, and a hundred other mouth-offs you can name . . . NOT white?

“””I know a number of non-white Americans that share these values as well. They immigrated from Asia and India.”””


And I would add that the majority of Hispanics share whiteness values.

So for the Smithsonian to argue that blacks should not share whiteness values kind of puts the blacks into a corner all by themselves.

But, I guess if the Smithsonian is run by a bunch of Democrat thugs, they will do anything to keep the blacks on the Democrat Plantation.

All the commercials I see on television show black people with those traits. It’s the white people they depict as having opposite traits, including just generally being stupid buffoons. So I’m confused.

I would have said Hispanic as well, but that is not a race. I suppose it is a culture - but an already western culture.

Who wrote this article? Who commissioned it? Who approved it? Names, please.

I remember a few years ago a story about young black kids afraid to bring home books from school lest they be shamed for being white.

Seriously sad that we are at this point. This is Orwell’s 1984 writ large, surely.

It’s time to arm up, stock up, and stand up.

What a bunch of garbage. Insanity.

I guess blacks are the OPPOSITE of all these things? Cannot manage to work for themselves or hold a schedule?

And note how this is called “whiteness (in the United States)”.

So again, is whiteness from Europe OK?

I was right all along, that Americanism is the enemy to these bastards. Take any given movie dealing with some kind of war, conflict, of the last 40 years, and whatever side is closer to “America” will be spun as bad.

So when someone, who isn’t white is polite to me, am I supposed to be offended by their cultural appropriation, or happy that they’re being nice?

You just acknowledge, "that's mighty white of you......"

It can only be seen in the archived version. They updated their site. Probably realized how they shot their own feet with all this horrible white people traits.
