Is It Okay to Be White?

Time Text
Hello, I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance.
As usual, the year is ending on a note of insanity, especially on college campuses.
I've collected a few crazy incidents from just the last couple of months, and I detect a pattern.
And the pattern is this: white people are increasingly pushing the view that whiteness is essentially a defect.
And naturally, non-whites are taking them at their word.
Just this month, the University of Michigan put on a two-day professional development conference to help white employees deal with their whiteness.
They put on sessions to help them explore the, quote, discomfort of being white and to help them, quote, explore this discomfort and devise ways to work through it.
They spent two days trying to solve the problem of being white.
At Cal State University at San Marcos in November, Driyama Moon, head of the communications department, put on a whiteness forum also to deal with the problem of whiteness.
As one of her students explained, as Driyama stood by smiling, whiteness thrives on the hate of everyone.
But the idea that whiteness is a congenital defect came into especially sharp focus after activists started putting up flyers that said, it's okay to be white.
Because, you see, it's not okay.
At the University of Alberta in Canada, one student called the flyers stupid and horrifying.
The president of the university, David Turpin, said that, quote, Messaging or displays that target or marginalize any individuals or groups will not be tolerated.
Saying it's okay to be white will not be tolerated.
President Turpin said that the campus police were on the hunt for the perps.
Same thing at Concordia College in Minnesota.
When flyers went up, a black student named Moshe Mekoni was heartbroken.
I just realized how much hate is going on, he said.
College President William Craft promised to hold an open forum for students to discuss whether it's okay to be white.
At Harvard Law School, Dean of Students Marcia Sells said the signs were a, quote, provocation and intended to divide us from one another.
So... Now that we know that being white is a provocation, what do we do about it?
You see, ironically, we are at the same time defective and privileged.
And one of our biggest defects is our inability to cast off this unearned, undeserved privilege.
Well, Stephanie McKillop, a teaching assistant at the University of Pennsylvania, has a solution.
In November, she sent out a tweet.
In which she explained, I will always call on my black women students first.
Other POC, people of color, get second-tier priority.
WW, white women, come next.
And if I have to, white men.
She looks pretty pleased with herself.
Apparently, this white people to the back of the bus approach has been around for a long time.
It's called progressive stacking.
I wonder if progressive stacking applies to grades, too.
And this month, Professor Kyle Rudick at University of Northern Iowa suggested that whites might be able to overcome their whiteness if they just stopped being polite.
He says his research has found that civility, being polite and pleasant to people, perpetuates white supremacy.
He discovered that white people carefully avoid talking about race or anything sensitive with non-whites because they're afraid they could be called racists.
Well, Professor Kyle Rudick says that's a, quote, race evasive strategy.
If whites avoid talking about race with non-whites, they are, quote, erasing their racial identity.
And obviously, that's a bad thing.
He also found that white people go out of their way to be especially nice and polite to non-whites, but that's bad, too.
Kyle Rudick says that's a way of, quote, upholding white privilege and white racial power.
So white people have a choice.
They can walk on eggshells and be especially nice to non-whites, but that erases their racial identities and upholds white racial power.
Or... They can talk about race to non-whites and run the risk of being accused of microaggressions or worse.
Does it seem like whites can't win?
Well, what do you expect?
It's not okay to be white.
Here's Kyle Rudick himself.
Clearly a guy who's got things figured out.
So the message is clear.
There's something fundamentally wrong with being white.
And guess who's getting the message?
Well, one is Rudy Martinez.
A Hispanic senior at Texas State University.
On November 28th, he wrote an op-ed in the college paper called, Your DNA is an Abomination.
You, of course, means white people.
He looked forward to the day when, quote, Whiteness will be over.
He went on to write, White death will mean liberation for all.
Until then, remember this.
I hate you because you shouldn't exist.
A few days later, the paper's editor-in-chief, another Hispanic named Denise Cervantes, noted that the paper got, quote, widespread criticism.
She apologized, adding, we acknowledge that the column could have been clearer in its message.
Clearer? How could it have been any clearer?
Rudy Martinez wants to rid the world of defective white people.
At Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington, The school newspaper started a new opinion section just this month.
It's called For People of Color by People of Color.
Only non-whites can write for it.
And it will be, quote, where we can be us without being overshadowed by the dark cloud that is living under white supremacy and having to see things from a white perspective.
This will be a safe space.
No white people allowed.
At UC Santa Cruz, the college Republicans tried to hold a meeting in the library.
This guy, Haik Adamian, sent out the word on Twitter, Well, the forces of righteousness got this message,
they gathered, and they shut down the meeting.
When the Republicans upheld white privilege by being civil and proposing a discussion, they were met with shouts of, Dialogue is violence.
You just can't talk to white people.
The same month, at UC Berkeley, Hispanic students simply refused to take the exam in their class on labor issues in America and Mexico.
Here they are, telling Professor Harley Shakin that he isn't qualified to teach about Mexico because he's white.
They finally left, and the exam went ahead, but not before one of them shouted at the students who stayed behind, You can take your fucking test, but people are dying out there.
Well, these are Berkeley students, by the way.
They're supposed to be the smartest kids in California.
And finally, this happened back in 2015, but here's Gerilyn Luther, the Yale student, giving advice to the man who runs her dormitory.
No, I don't agree with that.
Then why the fuck did you accept the position?
Because I have a different vision.
You should step down.
If that is what you think about being a fanatic, you should step down.
By the way, she lives in Fairfield, Connecticut, which is 88% white, and she lives in a house worth $760,000.
But it's okay to swear at a well-meaning white man because he's white.
You know, even liberal whites seem surprised by this stuff.
But they shouldn't be.
They seem to think...
That if they keep talking about how horrible white people are, blacks and Hispanics will love them.
Of course, when they talk that way, what you get is this.
And it's going to get worse before it gets better.
But in the meantime, a lot of white students are getting a very eye-opening dose of race realism.
In my next video, I'll talk about the thinking, if you can really call it that, behind this craziness.
