Unconscious Racism in Academia
00:02:57

|
| And there's another giant, Mark Lamont Hill. | |
| Racism is something that is unconscious. | |
| Unconscious. | |
| Just remember the next time, how come haters of blacks don't know it, but haters of Jews knew it? | |
| It's an interesting, different form of hatred, isn't it? | |
| God, if only Jews had to deal with unconscious anti-Semites, six million of them would be alive. | |
| You have to understand, if you get an advanced degree in anything, it means nothing. | |
| It means you studied hard. | |
| You don't understand how many fools, how many morons get advanced degrees. | |
| It doesn't say a thing about your ability to think clearly, your decency, your character. | |
| I was brought to California by a wonderful human being who was 50 years older than me. | |
| Dr. Shlomo Bardeen. | |
| He was the founder of the Brandeis Institute. | |
| It was actually, it became the Brandeis Bardeen Institute. | |
| And Justice Brandeis was one of the founders. | |
| Anyway, I was brought to California at the age of 25 to be the director by a 75-year-old man. | |
| He died the week that he publicly appointed me a successor. | |
| It was very dramatic. | |
| I didn't even know he was ill. | |
| But anyway, he used to say, he had a somewhat thick Russian accent. | |
| He used to say, you know, it is very possible to be a PhD and an SOB. This is something this man said a generation ago. | |
| But somehow, PhDs venerate PhDs. | |
| Most non-PhDs have a clear understanding that it tells me nothing about you other than you studied hard. | |
| That's all. | |
| And this woman is an example of it. | |
| So next time you hear unconscious racism, ask the person, were the anti-Semites in Europe? | |
| During the Holocaust, were they unconscious anti-Semites? | |
| Go ahead, please. - And it is actually in everyone, And everyone uses these words systemic. | |

Why Racism's Discourse Fails

|
|
| They're like, you know, I know that racism is systemic. | |
| And yet, individually, when you call them out, they'll be like, well, it's not me. | |
| You can't say that. | |
| That's right. | |
| That's exactly right. | |
| Yes. | |
| It's not me. | |
| You can't say that. | |
| That's correct. | |
| You're a hate-filled human being. | |
| You're a liar and a hater. | |
| That's all you are. | |
| The fact that you are on black television is a disgrace to black television. | |
| Go on, please. | |
| And so there's a disconnect between use of the word systemic and saying that racism is everywhere, but the moment you point it out individually, there's sort of people disown... | |
| Well, it isn't everywhere. | |
| That's part of the lie, too, Killinani. | |
| Mark Lamont Hill? | |
| It's not everywhere. | |
| I got a great proof of that. | |
| It's my column this week. | |
| Why have millions of African blacks and Caribbean blacks decided to move to America, and 10 million more, if not 20 million or 30 million, want to move here? | |
| Ask that to your liberal or left. | |
| That's a question to ask both. | |
| If America is systemically racist, Are black Africans who come here in the millions idiots? | |
| No Jews moved to Germany. | |
| Again, the example with the Jews is really, really telling. | |
| Jews didn't move to Germany in the 30s because Germany was systemically anti-Semitic. | |
| For that matter, blacks didn't move to Germany either. | |
| But what about that? | |
| Do you think every black who comes to this country is an idiot? | |
| You have to. | |
| You can't have it both ways. | |
| Why would one move to a place where they will be hated? | |
