White Students Banned from ‘Anti-Racist’ College Meeting because of their Race

White students were discriminated against at Ryerson University because, ironically, they had never been discriminated against.

Two students tried to attend Ryerson’s Racialized Students’ Collective on March 11. However, when Trevor Hewitt and Julia Knope tried to enter, they were told they were “not victims of racialization,” and were thus barred from entering.

The judgement was apparently made based solely on the color of Hewitt’s and Knope’s skin.

“It felt really bad… kind of embarrassing,” Knope told the campus paper. “If their goal in these meetings was to end racialization then it needs to be something everybody is involved in. If some people are causing the problems, they need to know. Grouping yourself off… is not going to accomplish anything.”

The group that held the event, the Racialized Students’ Collective, claims it “oppose(s) all forms of racism and works toward community wellness for students.”

Do not punish the children for the sins of the parents.
Punishing the innocent for the supposed sins of their ancestors does not right a wrong - it is a new injustice.

The subtle and not so subtle war on whites gathers momentum. I wonder if ever there will be a backlash.

Some has said something on these threads and I cannot place it. That spiteful persons of minority status aided by white flunkeys, are trying to turn being white into a secondary status.
