University of Central Florida launches probe of professor who said 'white Americans are under siege' and black people would not experience systemic racism if they 'behaved liked Asian Americans'

A professor from the University of Central Florida is under investigation after he claimed 'white Americans and white culture were under siege' while making several racist stereotypes about black people in the country. The announcement from UCF came just a day after the associate psychology professor, Charles Negy, took to Twitter to offer his comments surrounding the mythological 'black privilege.' He said in a Wednesday tweet: 'If African Americans as a group, had the same behavioral profile as Asian Americans (on average, performing the best academically, having the highest income, committing the lowest crime, etc.), would we still be proclaiming 'systematic racism' exists?'

The non-Freepers are learning an "honest conversation" concerning race is a lie and a trap. UCF is a public university. As a public university it is subject to the strict scrutiny standards concerning free speech. There is nothing to investigate.

They’re drawing the dividing lines for a civil war.

If he can’t say it in public, more and more people will say it in private.

It’s an opinion, and one I subscribe to. It’s not threatening, its an opinion. Some may not like it, but what’s to “investigate?”

Doesn’t Florida have a Republican Governor and large majorities in both chambers?

Sometimes being truthful can get you in trouble.

And for a point of reference - when I do get into arguments online I’ve ALWAYS used an alias.

These marxists socialists have been around for decades on the internet.

Uh oh. Sounds like he had a little too much to think.

Probably be the first college professor to lose his tenure.

Liberal college professors have wished for Trumps assasination and worse and crickets.

So the professor speaks the truth and he is persecuted and "probed" for his remark. Where is academic freedom? I guess if he said "kill all white people" there wouldn't have been a problem …

Same here. But... my opinion is backed up by personal history. I haven't been jumped and beaten by Asians. I haven't been robbed by Asians. My mother was knocked to the ground and purse-snatched, but it wasn't Asians. My mother had her car stolen from a market parking lot and the thief almost ran her over, and it wasn't an Asian. My wife (before I met her), got jumped and beaten on a bus and it wasn't Asians. All the perps were black people. And they wonder why non-blacks are leery of approaching blacks. That's not racism by non-blacks, it's fear.

He must not have gotten the memo that the truth isn’t to be spoken.

It’s “racist” to suggest that maybe just maybe blacks change their behavior in any way. Matter of fact, it actually looks like most are now encouraging blacks to act worse then they usually do.

I’ve been saying that if the blacks acted white for a few decades most of these racial problems would clear up. Then I realize a significant portion of the whites have been acting black for the past few decades. So strike that recommendation. Both whites and the blacks need to act Asian.

There is nothing more offensive than the truth.

This really shouldn’t surprise anyone .. colleges & unis have been bastions of socialism and Orwellian groupthink for many many years.

My respect goes out to this prof who dared speak truth to the young minds in his class/es.

Charles Negy is a white American who has been under siege his whole life. He should know better than to tell the truth.
