In just the latest instance of a taxpayer-funded university singling out white students for privilege-shaming “education sessions,” the University of Wisconsin-Madison hosted a special workshop on Tuesday for the purpose of getting white students to acknowledge and confront their own white privilege.
According to the university website, “The Privilege of Whiteness” workshop was designed for white people to “reflect on and name the ways their privilege impacts their beliefs and behaviors by gaining the skills to identify the historical roots of White privilege and how it manifests today.” Prospective attendees were informed that the workshop was “designed for a White audience,” although “People of color” were still welcome.

How I Got My “White Privilege”
by Albion Wilde
Go to bed on time.
Say your prayers.
Clean your room.
Take care of your belongings.
Address your elders as “Ma’am” and “Sir”.
Do your chores before you play.
Respect your parents and the house rules.
Eat what’s put in front of you.
Sit up/stand up straight.
Do your homework.

Go to Sunday School and church.
Attend confirmation classes and learn your religion.
Obey the Ten Commandments.
Be home on time.
Boys do not hit girls.
Girls do not chase boys.
Avoid a bad crowd.
Do not smoke, drink or swear. If you do, do not let any authority figure catch you.
You're not leaving the house wearing that.
Obey all driving laws and get a job to pay for your insurance.
Graduate from high school.
Get a job or go to college; if you go to college, also get a job.
Save money for the future.
Wait to get married before having sex.
If you don’t wait, you will have to give up the child or give up school and marry that person. So choose carefully.
Being married is teamwork.
Keep your finances simple and clean.
Work hard and respect your spouse and/or your boss, even if he/she is a jerk.
House, feed, clothe and love your child.
Being a parent involves sacrifice.
Discipline your child fairly; do not spoil, do not abuse.
Read to your child.
Pray with your spouse and your child.
Don’t ignore your spouse or your personal grooming because you’re now married or a parent.
Stay married.
Settle fights with your spouse before going to sleep at night.
Use credit only for a mortgage, a car payment, or emergencies.
If life throws you a lemon, make lemonade.
Repair, reuse, make do. Be grateful for what you've got.
Save money for old age.
Don't try to run your grown kids' lives.
Take care of your elders.
Teach your children that privilege must be earned
Let's look to Europe and UK for an example... oh, wait.
The universities and the government are already working together.
C.S. Lewis, The Pilgrim's Progress.
Maybe these idiot LPIB “educators” should “single-out” the minorities to teach them about civilized behavior.
“Yep, I used Affirmative Action to my advantage.”
Which is why many of us won’t hire AA types: They all too often never earn what they claim to have been awarded. You did more damage to race relations than you know.
Not from our standpoint. From a U. S. S. R. standpoint maybe.
I think that needs to change. I’m betting you do too.
Maybe I didn’t word my response well. Or maybe I’m not reading your response correctly.
The liberal democrats/socialists at the universities work quite well with the liberal democrats/socialists in the government.
I’m afraid I don’t do well with being forced to swallow things like that.
I would cut my losses, sue them if the requirement was not defined before I accepted matriculation and find another school. No school is worth losing your self respect by being silenced or made to agree for a grade.
Google “the Frankfurt School” for a huge source of today’s Marxist-socialism and youth indoctrination.
Unfortunately, you’re right. Western Europeans are worse than American liberals.
Poland and Hungary are admirable exceptions.
