‘Whiteness Group’ at Liberal Arts College Bars Whites from Asking Blacks Questions
Breitbart ^ | 3 Feb 2018 | THOMAS D. WILLIAMS, PH.D.

A student group formed to address “white privilege” at Ohio’s Kenyon College bars white members from asking questions of a person of color as part of a process to combat racism.

“Racism is a white people problem,” said the group’s student founder, Juniper Cruz—a self-described “Queer Afro-Latinx Muslim”—at the first meeting, which drew about 50 students.

The Whiteness Group, run through the school’s multicultural center, “works to educate students on whiteness, what it means to be white, and ways to deconstruct whiteness to work towards anti-racist actions,” Cruz said in an interview with The Thrill.

“The discussions explore what it means to be a white person while benefiting from societal privilege, as well as what it means to be a white ally to marginalized groups,” according to campus news reports from the Gambier, Ohio, college.

The group’s second meeting was attended by Rachel Kessler, an Episcopalian priest and chaplain of Kenyon College, who afterward wrote in an email to the school newspaper, “As white people, we can become paralyzed by our sense of shame for our racial privilege or by our fear of accidentally saying something problematic. Neither of those impulses are actually productive for combating racism and white supremacy.”

Having worked around Latinos and blacks....I can safely say that a fair amount of racism exist between those two groups at each other. Toss in racism existing with blacks over Asian groups as well.

Founded as a Christian seminary for the formation of Episcopal clergy, Kenyon College opened its doors to women in 1969 and now takes great pride in its diversity, as well as its commitment to “green initiatives.”

I bet they BDS, too!

I wish I was young enough to be in college again. I would take the above to mean that white people shouldn't ever talk to people of color. Therefore, the only way to implement the "white privilege" protocal is to boycott people of color by refusing to have any interaction of any kind with them.

Racism problem solved.

The new racism, and apparently, most white libtard progressive SJWs have no clue that they will and do ultimately fall under that label of ‘white’.....

I suppose it would be sexist, racist and religious bigotry to mention that the poster child for Muslims these days throws gay people off the top of buildings, wouldn’t it?

Oh, my, I must be letting my privilege get the better of me.

“Racism is a white people problem,” Says the racist.

Racism isn't a color thing, it's a human thing! Humans are hard wired to mistrust those different from themselves, it's a survival trait.

Anyone that tries pretend that only one color/race is racist is a fool or liar. Some of the most overt racists I have ever dealt with came from Mexico and they treated fellow Mexicans, Los Indios like dirt, then those very same people would tell me how Gringos were racist.

What does a queer, afro-latinx being know about being white?

I reject the premise of this organism's queer-splaining.

Sick to death of these ‘entitled’ SJW types who CONTINUALLY blame their own racial animus on white people.
Individually, not one single person controls the genetically determined color of their skin. To ascribe to skin color an immediate collection of actions, biases and beliefs is simply ignorant.
This type of crap is the direct result of progressives’ control of public education for the past 75 years.

The only way it will be undone is by freeing the school system from the rot that has become ingrained in the structure and the people who control it.

Only the modern libtard imbecile can manage to compress this much complete nonsense, hypocrisy and contradictory effluvium into so few sentences. These people belong in a day care for special needs kids, not a university. Any fool that takes them even remotely seriously deserves to be flogged.

American colleges and universities are cesspools of evil and profound mental illness. This is going to have to be firmly dealt with.
