Professor: Thanksgiving Is A ‘White Supremacist Holiday’
Forget all that turkey, stuffing and pumpkin pie, today should be a day of fasting and atonement for American “sin.” That’s according to Robert Jensen, a journalism professor at the University of Texas at Austin. Jensen, known for his hard-left politics, also calls Thanksgiving a “white-supremacist holiday.”
Jensen’s opinion piece “No Thanks for Thanksgiving,” appeared on the far-left, Soros-connected website Alternet on Thanksgiving eve. In it, he wrote how Native Americans suffered because of the “European invasion of the Americas.” He went on to compare the Founding Fathers to Nazi Germany. “How does a country deal with the fact that some of its most revered historical figures had certain moral values and political views virtually identical to Nazis?

Robert Jensen, the professor at the University of Texas should be ignored for his “lets hate America” opinions. It saddens me to think of the young minds this man is paid to transform....what a waste!
Most conservatives are found in the engineering depts.
This academic dimwit is an intellectual embarrassment. Someone should b-slap him with his worthless dissertation. He should keep his self loathing to himself. What a loser parasite.
Well if that what it is I embrace it. For whatever you call it there it too much history, heritage, culture, family, love & tradition to give much of a shit what you or any of your ilk call it. You and all your anti-white, anti-Western assholes can stuff it.
Buffett, Soros, Reid, Clinton (H.), for a few. They’re supremecists and they’re white.
Do these “journalists” feel better that there’s a BLACK supremecist in the WH?
Very pc to scream racism against whitey while we see the rise of the black klan and affirmative action and set-a-side programs being forced on non favored groups at every level.
Yep, didn't even read past that line.
Just another eyebrow-raising media piece to sell ad space. Don’t get all in a huff about it. The “professor” is an a$$hat, just like many others but his credentials have earned him a mention in the news, designed to get your attention. FOX is no different from any other news outlet. Dirty Laundry sells.
What a clown!
Someone should b-slap him.Someone did ever notice he always walks behind Michelle.

How many conservative alumni still contribute to these universities? Every conservative alumni of this university should STOP giving any money and explain why?
This fellow should lose his job—let him go to Cuba. Lincoln made Thanksgiving a National Holiday—he was no racist. I am so sick of the race card—anyone who uses it is dead to me and insane to boot.
Yep, I often wonder how these people of European descent can live with themselves and be intellectually honest about this. If they truly believe that the white man stole the land and all that, to be intellectually honest, these people need to leave America.
Just no.
I'd simply state that if the author had turkey for Thanksgiving, that he is a cannibal.
The Europeans brought smallpox and alcohol so the “Indigenous” traded back syphilis and tobacco. Sort of a fair trade/s

This man is a racist who is wasting his life.
It must be rather nerve-wracking to live that way morning, noon & night, with every holiday being filled with racist rage (except maybe kwanza). I’m sure he never has any peace.
He should be ignored - unfortunately, he won’t be - and we’ll be hearing the old song and dance about how reparations will make it all better.
We need a new ‘experimental lab’ for freedom. Maybe we do need seccession of a few states living in liberty and freedom. The world needs a light to show it the way.
