University to students: 'All whites are racist'

A mandatory University of Delaware program requires residence hall students to acknowledge that "all whites are racist" and offers them "treatment" for any incorrect attitudes regarding class, gender, religion, culture or sexuality they might hold upon entering the school, according to a civil rights group.

"Somehow, the University of Delaware seems terrifyingly unaware that a state-sponsored institution of higher education in the United States does not have the legal right to engage in a program of systematic thought reform. The First Amendment protects the right to freedom of conscience – the right to keep our innermost thoughts free from governmental intrusion. It also protects the right to be free from compelled speech," said a letter from Samantha Harris, director of legal and public advocacy for The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education to university President Patrick Harker.

The organization cited excerpts from the university's Office of Residence Life Diversity Education Training documents, including the statement:

"A RACIST: A racist is one who is both privileged and socialized on the basis of race by a white supremacist (racist) system. 'The term applies to all white people (i.e., people of European descent) living in the United States, regardless of class, gender, religion, culture or sexuality. By this definition, people of color cannot be racists, because as peoples within the U.S. system, they do not have the power to back up their prejudices, hostilities, or acts of discrimination….'"

What about white African-Americans (e.g. a white born in South Africa, but now an American Citizen)?

This definition defies reality. There is a diversity of power now. Stupid hippies, stuck in the 60’s.

Did you read who the President of Delaware worked for?

In June 1991, President George H. W. Bush named Dr. Harker as a White House Fellow, one of 16 chosen in the country. In this position, he spent 1991-92 as a Special Assistant to the Director of the F.B.I., as well as participating in a variety of off-the-record discussions and trips with national leaders.

We need a list of “Universities to avoid like the plague.”

Maybe I’m just an old guy that graduated college in 1966, but what authority or leverage does a university have over a student that is paying tuition? I would just tell these folks to get screwed and go to my next class. Maybe things have changed over the years but this is absolutely mind boggling!

According to the article calling a person of color is racist.

“people of color cannot be racists, because as peoples within the U.S. system, they do not have the power to back up their prejudices, hostilities, or acts of discrimination….’”,

Orwellian would define calling a person of color racist would be “wrong speak”. LOL

Universities to avoid like the plague.”

JMO but I think that has been our problem for the last 20 years, maybe longer. We have been avoiding these institutions as they brainwash our kids and the society as a whole. Some how, some way, we need to start confronting these institutions before it is too late. Look how far political correctness has gone since it’s inception in Brown University begining in the late 80’s.

We may be wining the WOT but we are losing the war on america.
