Gibney felt put on the spot, but told the students not to take matters personally.Just IMAGINE if we flipped the ethnicities here. Imagine a white professor popping off repeatedly about cultural "blackness" and responding to (black) objectors that hey, I'm not talking about ALL blacks or YOU black people PERSONALLY, so, shut up.
We are not talking about all white people, or you white people in general, she told them. We are talking about whiteness as a system of oppression.
“We are not talking about all black people, or you black people in general...we are talking about blackness as a system of rape and murder”.
Imagine how that would fly...
