University sponsors campaign to undermine 'white privilege'
http://d-umn.campusreform.org/group/blog/university-sponsors-campaign-to-undermine-white-privilege ^

Posted on 06/21/2012 11:11:49 AM PDT by TigerClaws

The project disseminates its message, that "society was setup for us [whites]" and as such is "unfair," through an aggressive campaign of online videos, billboards, and lectures. The ads feature a number of Caucasians confessing their guilt for the supposed "privilege" that comes along with their fair features.

WATCH BELOW: Group says it is "unfair" to be white

Spot-on example of a failure of LOGIC.

So they look at me and based on my white skin tone, just assume that I’ve had things easy.

And they look at people with dark skin tones and based on that assume they’ve had it tough.

And this message of this group is not to judge others by skin color?

And Duluth had rainfall and flooding of near-Biblical proportions night before last....

Nah.

logic? That’s just a trick invented by white people to oppress people of color.

My favorite variation on your quote, “When you believe in nothing, you’ll fall for anything.”

The Critical Studies kiddies don't read their own pap. You can't make up for White Privilege. It's mysterious, invisible, all-pervasive. Even the attempt to address it is an act of White Privilege. It is as ubiquitous as the aether once was in physics. And as fallacious.

I would really like to see Jesse Jackson, Melissa Harris-Perry, Al Sharpton, or the like asked one simple question: When you consider everything equal?

White privilege certainly existed even in my own lifetime. I’m even willing to hear arguments that it still exists. However, I’m not willing to accept the notion that it exists in perpetuity.

I was thinking about the left’s constant efforts to seperate people into their different categories, and the “Tower of Babal” popped into my head. I know there is no actual tower under construction, but the left is trying to “build” a utopia. As they continue their efforts we are all being divided to a point where we don’t even speak the same any more....

So, in Mexico, China, Saudi Arabia or Zimbabwe, do I get 400 points added to my SAT’s, additional financial aid and scholoarship opportunities and a leg up in grad school admissions, plus when all that’s over, do I get preferential hiring at a job, especically in Government?

Oh, and if I commit a crime against whitey, it’s only coincidence, when if the reverse happens, it’s a hate crime?

STFU.

The 90’s show In Living Color, had a great Jim Carey skit on this topic.
Carey portrayed Farrakan; and white liberals would come to him to be insulted and then confess their guilt.

All sorts of ways of fighting back on this.

For example, give out yellow ‘W’ stickers to wear on shirts, like the yellow Star of David the Nazis made the Jews wear.

Create fictitious organizations like the White Panthers, that call for the overthrow of the university administration because they are racists.

Call for a “white boycott” of university sporting events, and demand the creation of a “white studies” department.

Whites should go elsewhere, and let UMD become an Obama’s kids college.

Why would white parents allow their kids to go there?

Right now we more less speak the same, however the meaning behind those words nare no longer universal. So they have already created there tower along with the ramifications.

If I was a citizen of Minnesota, I would seriously consider filing some form of taxpayer action against the University--which I assume gets some taxpayer support. This form of anti-American self-flagellation is a deliberate attack on the social cohesion of the people. It can be defended neither in reason nor even in any altruistic sentiment.

This sort of University action cries out that what we have addressed as Myths & Myth Makers In American "Higher" Education must be addressed. Those who refuse to challenge the sham academic disciplines that lead to such lunacy, lest they be called some hissy name, have surrendered the battle field to those who mean to destroy our heritage & take away our sovereign independence.

(See, also, World Government & Surrender By Subterfuge; because if you scratch the surface, you will find that those who hate ethnic Americans are generally the most avid supporters of World Government & other fantasies of human interchangeability.) The compulsive need to destroy people's pride in their own heritage--and this applies to almost any people--is clear evidence not of good intentions, but of the intent to undermine existing social structures. It needs to be understood as such.

Demonstrably, those societies and countries that don’t have “white” culture as the basis of governance, ie, are NOT “set up for the white man”,

are MISERABLE FAILURES, CORRUPT, and POOR.
