University of Pennsylvania student James Fisher took to the Ivy League schools student newspaper to complain that a professors refusal to acknowledge white privilege was a traumatic experience for him. Fisher claims that fall 2016 semester was his worst semester at the University of Pennsylvania because a white professor refused to acknowledge his privilege.
"Last semester was honestly the worst semester Ive had at Penn so far. And all because of one thing: the white professors Ive had at Penn. It appears that the term privilege does not apply to them. Nor do they care to learn what it is."
After one of his professors refused to acknowledge his privilege, Fisher claims that he was unable to attend that class for a month, saying he did not want to step foot into another white space until I made sure that my mental health was restored.
Fisher detailed his experience in the classroom, claiming that the professor, a white man from the suburbs, cultivated a classroom environment that caused him trauma.
"Unfortunately, he proved my suspicions to be true. There were countless times that his lack of acknowledgment of his privilege led to some of the trauma that I experienced in class. He would show images of slaves on plantations and even allow students to say ignorant comments in class."
Fisher claims that he confronted the professor after class, telling him that lack of awareness of personal privilege had caused him racial trauma.
"I remember having an intense conversation after class. I basically told him that what he was doing was traumatic to me, and as someone who has experienced a lot of racial trauma in his life, I would not allow him to continue.

James Fisher is a fool with mental health problems, who does not belong in an Ivy League university until his problems are fixed!!!!
“White privilege” is a bogus meme cooked up by Marxist racialists! There can be no learning in a school controlled by those who spout this Marxist doctrine!!!!
And there can also be no learning or growth in any kind of “safe space”!!!!
PHOOEY!!!! PHOOEY again!!!!
It is fascism in the name of feelings.
Not only are my feelings right, but it is a violation of my rights to ever contradict my feelings or do anything I feel is bad. Disagree with me, and thats an assault on my pure self and I have the right to hurt you for hurting my feelings.
telling him that lack of awareness of personal privilege had caused him racial trauma
I will gladly PAY for a One Way ticket for this Crybaby to go Back TO AFRICA to LIVE permanently so he doesn’t have to worry about white privilege again.
If he refuses, well then I hope he knows how to fill out an Application for Welfare because the chance of him ever getting a Job are NON EXISTENT!
U Penn is ivy league?
Hopefully, this snowflake is on some government list somewhere that prohibits him from purchasing a firearm. The boy ain’t right in the head.
What do these snowflakes do when they get out of school and get a job ... if they ever get a job? Are they going to tell their boss what to say?
I bet these little jerks bully their parents at home too.
At some point someone has to stand up to them and say NO.
in fact, I have been traumatized by this student!
I’m still waiting for my “white privilege.”
I’ve been discriminated against because I’m white.
I wonder what the class topic was? Historic Civil War times in the South?
race card + victim card + self pity = libtard obsession
Caused him to miss a month of classes. Hmmm .
They become teachers, college professors or go to work in other government jobs.
Many seem to sense a gravitational pull towards jobs in auto licensing offices.
You also see quite a few in jobs holding up shovels on unionized road construction projects.
You don't "allow" squat `flake.
No power play for you!
NEXT!

Poor thing, his diaper needs changing.
He's not traumatized, he's lazy and needs to check his black privilege. Likely slept in and didn't want to go to class and is now wanting to get the prof into trouble for giving him an F instead of an A.
I cannot wait until these snowflakes (those who will actually work for a living) get jobs, and experience the real world.
it’s worse than we think

So, since were oppressed, right, were not able to perform at our best"

Being lazy and not getting your butt out of bed in time to get to class for a month is him intentionally not performing his best.
“...and as someone who has experienced a lot of racial trauma in his life, I would not allow him to continue.”
That statement made me chuckle out loud. What a maroon. Typical attitude of the self-entitled college crowd. I imagined the professor rolling his eyes and then walking away, shaking his head in amusement and chuckling.
