Indeed if he would have applied in Chitcago he couldn’t say that he would have thought he was in a Tarzan movie.

For over forty years, there have been minority set-asides, preferential hiring programs and preferential college admissions for black people. Practically every low to midlevel government job from the municipal level on up to the federal appears to me to have been awarded to a black person.

So, what on earth is this idiot prattling on about? Privilege? I’ve received no preferential treatment. What success I’ve had has come despite preference for other candidates on the basis of race and sex, under the law.

What about “ASIAN PRIVILEGE”. When I lived in California, I saw it in action.

When a Korean family emigrated to San Jose, the local Korean Community bought them a donut shop. The family lived in the donut shop, and arose about 4am to start donuts. Kids got up, went to school, came home and did homework while they ran the cost register in the afternoon.

When the donut shop was paid off, the family continued living in the donut shop and saved to purchase a house... cash. When they saved enough, they bought their house, and became official members of the middle class.

How many of those protesting “white privilege” would be willing to do the same?

This malignant idiot should not be allowed within miles of a school (or other people for that matter). What a steaming pant load her writing is. Allowing her to “teach” is child abuse...and logic abuse. I cannot fully express my disdain for idiots such as her. She is a cancer on humanity. Oh, yes...have a nice day.
