Berea College defended event saying it encouraged open dialogue 'on difficult topics'
A Kentucky college is scheduled to host an event critical of Donald Trump and associating the former president and "white citizenship" with terrorism.
A flyer obtained by Young America's Foundation (YAF) describes the event as a way to "resituate Trumpism and white citizenship as forms of white terrorism enacted against the majority of people living within the borders of the U.S. and beyond."
Titled "White citizenship as terrorism: Make America Great Again, Again," the event is set to take place on March 17 via Zoom, according to a page on Berea College's website. The Women's and Non-Gender Non-Conforming Center is sponsoring the session with the Law, Ethics, and Society at the college.
YAF said it obtained the flyer through its Campus Bias Tip Line. It features images of protesters carrying tiki torches at the racially charged Charlottesville, Virginia, protests at the beginning of Trump's presidency.
The flyer also takes a critical approach to the "Make America Great Again" slogan. "Despite calls for multiculturalism and color-blindness, segments of white America mourn their so-called loss of privilege, consistently begging to return to the nostalgic past in which their esteemed value as white citizens went unquestioned," it reads.
"Trump's 'Make America Great Again' appears to follow suit by offering a seemingly benign promise to return America to a previously 'great' past. But the offer to 'Make America Great Again, Again,' requires we refocus on how the last four years of daily tweets and administrative actions redefine whiteness. If terrorism is defined as the use of violence and threats to create a state of fear towards particular communities and identities, then this is what 'Trumpism' is at its core."

How much money does the Chinese Communist Party give them ?

You’re giving them too much credit for wanting to work. They’ll be happy doing nothing and subsisting on government largesse.
The left keeps pushing whites into an ever-diminishing corner. If they think we’re terrifying now, they’re going to poop a brick if/when we start acting on our anger.
“You have no right to keep your country”
Berea College sees one of its missions as promoting Appalachian culture, art, and history. At the same time they attack White people. Does not compute. Who do they think lives in Appalachia?
By Zoom? Show up at the chickens***re doorstep and have a face to face meeting.
The schools are promoting racial equity, whatever that means in the current lexicon (or future narrative for that matter.)
It boils down to white skin bad, black skin good.
Interesting muddle of Animal Farm physiology.
This only works if everyone plays the same game, you know.
Should rename it Beria College.
Why don’t they just put up a sign
WHITE PEOPLE NEED NOT APPLY
So uh, what are they doing in Kentucky?
Occupying Shawnee land? Cherokee? Yuchi?
They may end up making "white supremacists" out of normal whites before they are done.
When you consider everything these people are saying, it really is about the hatred of capitalism and liberty. It is being disguised as "white terrorism or extremism".
Last time I looked, this nation has a majority white population.
“consistently begging to return to the nostalgic past in which their esteemed value as white citizens went unquestioned”
You mean like in China where you have to have Han genetics to be considered “Chinese” or Nigeria where you have to be born to “either of whose parents or any of whose grandparents belongs or belonged to a community indigenous to Nigeria” or any one of hundreds of nations that only consider Jus Sanguinis in determining citizenship, as has been done for thousands of years?
And as for “color blindness”, does that mean we can finally throw out affirmative action and go with qualifications, or is that “acting white”?
Maybe white alumni should withhold support for Kentucky’s basketball team.
“Despite calls for multiculturalism and color-blindness, segments of white America mourn their so-called loss of privilege, consistently begging to return to the nostalgic past in which their esteemed value as white citizens went unquestioned,”
So what you’re saying is that unlike minorities, Whites simply want to live among their own.
“WHITE PEOPLE NEED NOT APPLY”
Add to that, that I’m a long-haired freaky people...I ain’t got a chance.
Okay - let all whites and Trump supporters leave. See what’s left that can support the college.
