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.

Okay, I have to point out that NONE of these listed items is only available to "white" people. Asian people practice the same self-discipline and are very successful. If Blacks practiced these principles, and there are those who do, they would also be successful.
So, this is not "signs of "whiteness". This is "signs of success"; and, they are available to anyone.
Future historians are going to wonder how we as a culture deserved to survive through this.
The key to stability in life no matter what your race is four or five simple things that young people need to do to set their course.
1. At the very least, finish High School.
2. Do not have children out of wedlock.
3. Do not marry until you’re around 25 and have some financial stability.
4. Stay away from drugs and alcohol.
5. Do not become entangled with the criminal justice system.
And that’s really about it... there is an amount of responsibility that needs to be adhered to if one wants to make it to a point in life where one can raise a family successfully.
Voice over of “liberal” intellectuals disusing “white privilege” and white racism while a video compilation of dozens of examples of graphic black on white violence shows black race hatred of whites and the hollowness of their words.
I though the same thing.
One thing this is doing is telling us how totally racist most black people are.

It is also feeding the racial stereotype of blacks in general. What does the racist say about black people? Well they can read it in that pamphlet. It is very sick
If Europeans never settled here indigenous people would still be crawling on their bellies stalking Buffalo with bows and arrows
And the most significant loss from no European settlement, no horses, which gave the Plains Indiana a revolution in mobility and thus in their lives.
Was this document located next to a stack explaining black culture contrast?

I would like to see that myself. I went to the website, but there is a lot there, mostly about how racist whites are and how oppressed blacks are. Unfortunately, I don’t have time to dedicate to looking for a document that might not even exist. But it would be really interesting to see.
Every black family should be assigned a life coach by Social Services to guide them away from bad decisions and toward success.
Surprised this hasn’t been translated into Ebonics and Jive.
Instead they are still using the White Man’s Language.
Yuck, Pop Tarts gross me out.
You have to eat a big bowl of Sugar Smacks or Frosted Flakes.

It’s basically a validation of why blacks are in the state they are.
I guess because slavery? Have I got this right?
Blacks who follow these rules are almost guaranteed success. Study hard, stay in school, take education seriously, stay away from drugs and crime, get a job and work hard. Don’t have kids out of wedlock.
Whiteness?
Those are signs of happiness and success.

Can very well be changed to say the following:

The list of the opposites of all those things is interesting.
Many places do with the label Safe Space.
