"Like White On Rice": Liberals Offer "Whiteness Studies" as a Solution to Racism

,,, I'm feeling inclusion coming on.

[Patangeles]

I don't know anything about whiteness studies, but it sounds like an effort toward inclusiveness. Conservatives have been asking for equal time for years, and rightly so.

However, it may not be what it's cacked up to be. At the very least, students will have white clubs, white events, etc, instead of the present non-inclusionary status they experience.

[lilylangtree]

They want whites to consider themselves a race? Why don't the other "races" quit considering themselves "races" and look upon themselves as just people? Would that make them boring and no fun.

Not sure if you want to see this post or not. But in honor of your well written finest piece today, ping!

C'mon, white people — you know the privileges he's talking about: ...And all those free, short-sleeve, button-down shirts. Ah, the good life!

Apparently Wal-Mart and Burlington Coat Factory never got the memo from Professor Howard Lose-ant. This white boy paid retail.

I guess I should pick up the phone and complain to somebody in Provo. [/sarcasm ]

C'mon, white people — you know the privileges he's talking about: The reserved parking at Starbucks, the discounts on Wonder bread and mayonnaise, free long-distance on all calls to Utah. And all those free, short-sleeve, button-down shirts. Ah, the good life!

I guess I'm not white enough .. cause I don't get any of those things

I don't know how someone can just sign on and have one of our posts removed. AND, I will assume you were only successful in having my post because I used the politically incorrect version of bullcrap in it.

I am putting my post BACK up now:

White opressors??? I'm third generation sharecropper! I'm Italian. My Momma Nome was a slave in Capri! As well as my great Aunts and Uncles!

I'm by definition white; yet, from a slave family!

This Whiteness crap is total bullpucky! I can scream slave crap too. If I ever thought about doing it though, the ghost of my Momma Nome would be down here in 2 seconds hitting me on the head screaming, "whatsa matter with you! I did all this so you could have a hand out??!!"
