White college students are undergoing a weekly "deconstructing whiteness" program at Northwestern University.
The "6-part workshop series for undergraduate students who self-identify as white" launched in January and runs through March, according to the university's website. Students enrolled chose to do so - it is voluntary.
A spokesman for the prestigious private university located outside Chicago declined to give The College Fix details on the program, such as how many students enrolled and how it’s been received so far.
"It's part of Northwestern's Social Justice Education effort to create learning opportunities for our students," Bob Rowley, a spokesman for the campus, told The College Fix in an email, providing a link to the social justice webpage and adding: "Beyond that, we don't have anything more for you on it."
According to a report in the campus newspaper, the workshops focus on "terminology used in conversations of race, the history and meaning of whiteness, white guilt and the difference between intellectualizing and feeling racism."
"There's a lot of space on this campus for conversations to happen around issues of privilege and specifically around issues of white privilege," Michele Enos, assistant director of the university's Social Justice Education office, told The Daily Northwestern.
A poster advertising the workshop series (shown above) posed rhetorical questions such as" "What is my role in doing anti-racist work?" or "why do I have to feel guilty about being white?" and "how can I talk about race as a white person?"

Diversity, I guess. That’s all the rage nowadays.
Have your parents take their money somewhere else. If the rest of the world can’t keep up not your problem. Asians of all types seem to do just fine in America.
1. There is no legal definition of “White” as applied to humans.
Therefore this in unenforceable.
It is completely unacceptable to decide whether someone is White by looking at the face, the nose, the hair.
No definition, no law. Go to hell.
I sense a loophole.
The self hating white students who enrolled deserve what they get.
It won’t help. They will still be privileged because of their race. They might feel badly about it but it doesn’t change anything.
What a pant load.
Another college/university crippled by Political Correctness. I hope the alumni stops donating until someone is put in charge to stop this utter silliness.
Are they presenting to the Affrimative Action admissions students who took the place of deserving students who had to go elsewhere due to racial quotas?
Iran
Kenya
North Korea
Venezuela
You know, Islamic/Marxist paradise.
So whites have affirmative action, racial quota’s, and special college funds, as well as all white schools!
Oh they don’t, seems to me they are the racist ones against whites, especially white, straight, normal , males, and are giving blacks their special privilege.
This should be countered by a “workshop” called “White And Proud.”
Conservatives need a good tracking system to identify the people who design, implement and “teach” in these programs. Northwestern is a private university and if it so chooses can implement this nonsense. However if these people cross into the public sector and try to coerce students they must be promptly sued for civil rights violations and violation of constitutional free speech rights. Good strategy to keep them and their supporters on the defensive.
“White” = Judeo-Christian foundations of the country.
When we can, we put down Mongolian since Mr. Mercat has slightly slanted eyes and very straight hair.
How about reconstructing race. Everyone’s now a redneck, except the “bums.”

REDNECK and “proud”

“Rednecks come in many colors: yellow, red, tan, white and black. But to a one they all stand proud and tall — they’re the strength of this country’s back.”
Yep... and they choose to be blind to race and this absolutely kills racism-mongers.
