Noel Ignatiev, a professor at Massachusetts College of Art, has for years advocated the total elimination of Caucasians.
During his final lecture before retirement last Monday, he told his white male students "you don’t deserve to live. You are a cancer, you’re a disease."
NOEL IGNATIEV: If you are a white male, you don’t deserve to live. You are a cancer, you’re a disease, white males have never contributed anything positive to the world! They only murder, exploit and oppress non-whites! At least a white woman can have sex with a black man and make a brown baby but what can a white male do? He’s good for nothing. Slavery, genocides against aboriginal peoples and massive land confiscation, the inquisition, the holocaust, white males are all to blame! You maintain your white male privilege only by oppressing, discriminating against and enslaving others!
That transcript was published at a website called Diversity Chronicle which agrees with Ignatiev:
The good Professor’s sound and reasonable words resonate with every enlightened and progressive mind. They are indisputable and no one can debate them. They should not be controversial in the slightest, yet remarkably a few far-right extremists object to the Prof. Ignatiev’s advice. The Professor however, reported receiving “a standing ovation” from his “largely white and middle class students.”

As a white male, I have been traumatized by these remarks.
Can anyone recommend a good attorney.
That professor and his college are going to pay through the nose.
You have a corrupt mind, Ignatiev. It must suck to be you.
He’s got some serious Hitler envy going on.
>> This is just normal leftist thinking.
Leftist indeed.

Rant: I’m Tired of ‘White Guy Photography’ Projects
Nick Vossbrink · Nov 06, 2013
This is distinct from photography by white guys. What I’m having problems with is the approach which entails traveling, or moving, someplace with the intent of documenting and photographing so as to “explain” or “capture” it for others. And the amount of privilege required to start such a project and make those kinds of claims is generally limited to (but not exclusively the domain of) white guys.
As much as this is a time-honored approach, I’m done with it.
I grew up looking forward to each new issue of National Geographic. The photography was great and it was a fantastic way to learn about the world. At the same time, even as a kid, I was aware of the colonial viewpoint in how it depicted different cultures, bodies, etc...
As a child of the 80s, I got to watch its viewpoint shift from the exotic abroad to focus more on the US. In some ways this must have been an interesting editorial shift as it applied the colonial view to ourselves. However, since a lot of those features were on American cities, I can’t help but think that the result has been to view our cities, especially the poor, majority-minority ones as being dangerous or exotic.
But this was all in the 1980s. To see the same approach taken toward non-white or non-mainstream cultures now feels old and stale. And with almost everyone having the tools to document and represent themselves now, it starts treading into self-serving, patronizing, white-guilt behavior too.
The colonial view doesn’t work for me anymore. At its best, I find it boring. At its worst, I find it racist. In almost all cases I’m tired of it.
I’m tired of the outsider view which treats cities as urban jungles full of diversity which have to be tamed. I’m tired of the idea that you can just drive through a culture snapping photos and claim to be presenting it to the rest of us. I’m tired of the idea that non-white or native people are exotic objects. I’m tired of the lack of context which results in the photos providing little to no information about the actual culture being depicted.
I’m tired of the way that, even today, so many westerners gush about this kind of photography.
I’m tired of the way that so many people still aspire to create this kind of photography.
We’ve already reached the point where most everything has been photographed. If our goal is to increase the sophistication with which we photograph, a large part of this has to include how we approach and view other cultures.
Which means that this rant in many ways is the other side of the blinders coin. So many of us only see—without realizing it—the white-male perspective that we’ve come to believe that that perspective is what photography is. We need to do better, whether it’s showing how other cultures are representing themselves or explaining why we’re bored of certain points of view.

...I’m also starting to receive some interesting comments on that post. Much more interesting than the comments on the only other post which has ever taken off. Yes. I know. Never read the comments. But I have no choice on my own blog. In any case, I’m, so far, finding myself interested in responding to them. Not in an “I’m right, you’re wrong” way but just because what was intended to be some naval-gazing into why I found myself bored by certain projects has been picked up and turned into:
Me being an anti-white racist.
Me criticizing HONY.
Me bitching and moaning and whining.
Me bitching and moaning and whining without offering any solutions to address the problem.
Me being consumed with white guilt.
Me being a shitty photographer trying to tear down good photographers.
I’m somehow the judge of what is acceptable photography for a white guy to practice.
The above from someone who bought into the “white privilege” and “colonialism is bad” memes.
Hey, Professor, I am right behind you.
You commit suicide, then I will. And I mean real suicide. You know they type, hang yourself, OD on speed; jump in front of a train, please no guns because that is wrong.
Jump professor jump
He probably never had a bris.
According to Vincent Bugliosi, Charles Manson was seeking a race war (after which, he’d rise on top). Of course, Vincent need to make a conspiracy case since Charles Manson was not present at either murder.
Interesting how American communists are so obsessed with race. I don’t think that was the case with Soviet communism.
Good lord,he was an S.D.S. member.
That says it all.

One might simply replace "white male" with "Jew" and have something straight out of Der Sturmer.

I’m always amazed at people who have the least CAPABILITY of inflicting violence that are the biggest ADVOCATES of its most extreme application, on the conditions that: 1) someone else does the beating; and, 2) they are all mouth. Look at this pasty-faced, overweight, half-tailed loudmouth and he’s a perfect example. Reminds me of the “revolutionary” in Peru a few years ago - he pushed violence, murdering peasants and families until President Fujimori armed them, they started fighting back, kicking tail and taking names. When they captured the “leader”, he turned out to be a short, fat, indolent, pasty-white and uncoordinated little fool who ended up getting a lot of innocent people, as well as his stupid followers killed. He looked a lot like this arse.
Do it for the.....children!

I’ve been “told” that it is wrong to associate SDS with Communists, the Days of Rage planned riots, and the Weather Underground. I’ve never been told WHY it is wrong to ignore the ties.
Except that useful idiot Red Dupes marched WITH SDS unaware of the group.
There was an earlier thread on this. I thought it was found to be coming from a satire site????????
