The National Museum of African American History & Culture wants to make you aware of certain signs of whiteness: Individualism, hard work, objectivity, the nuclear family, progress, respect for authority, delayed gratification, more.

Welcome to the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History & Culture. https://nmaahc.si.edu/

Whiteness Since white people in America hold most of the political, institutional, and economic power, they receive advantages that nonwhite groups do not. Whiteness and white racialized identity refer to the way that white people, their customs, culture, and beliefs operate as the standard by which all other groups of are compared.
One thing this is doing is telling us how totally racist most black people are.
YAWN , What ?
IF black culture is against progress that may explain a lot about the continent.
I’m already aware that those are White and Asian traits.
Do they think I’m stupid and blind?
One thing this is doing is telling us how totally racist most black people are.
I dont see how its telling us that. Its telling us about whoever the people are who put this material out.
By the way, Ive seen the author of White Fragility on TV and she doesnt look to me like shes a black person. Also, a lot of the BLM protesters Ive seen are white
So the Smithsonian is confirming what many non-blacks have believed about blacks for hundreds, if not thousands of years.
I.....I.....I have to admit it.
I have whiteness.
Every morning, I wake up and the first thing I think of is, What can I do today to hurt Americans of African Descent?
Ummmm.....
Actually.....
The first thing I think of is Pop Tarts.
Im already aware that those are White and Asian traits.
Theyre also the traits of tens of millions of blacks. This material is anti-black racism, imo. Ever heard of Clarence Thomas or Thomas Sowell? Or for that matter Juan Williams or Clarence Page? You think any of them dont practice these habits?
How soon before Smithsonian pouts yup signs “No Whites Allowed”?
I see their criteria of “white” culture more as “American” culture. We are a multicultural society. Successful individuals of any race pretty much check off the boxes in that list.
they’re college kids who have been taught “critical black theory” paid for with federal tax dollars.
” Individualism, hard work, objectivity, the nuclear family, progress, respect for authority, delayed gratification,”
They’re asserting that people of color are deficient in these areas. Can they be more disgustingly racist?
These are racist anti-black stereotypes. Congress should investigate how/if theyre being funded by tax dollars
When you are told you cannot be a racist because youve magic melanin it should be no surprise to anyone that you end up being very racist.
Rather than racism be something you do or dont do it has become a feature of the color of your skin thanks to the Lefts idiotic bigoted ideology.
You got that right.
What can I do today to hurt Americans of African Descent?
The authors of this material seem to want to demean and hurt blacks by persuading them that success habits and attitudes arent for them. As if people like Colin Powell and Barack Obama got where they are without practicing those habits. (Yes, even Obama, as much as I disagree with his policies, practiced self discipline in his life to get ahead; he also has a nuclear family, which this Smithsonian propaganda clams isnt for blacks)
