Nick Cannons comments about whites being genetically inferior and closer to animals than blacks would have been front-page news if they had been uttered by a white person about blacks.
Does a remark have to be uttered by a white person for it to be considered racist?
During a June 30 episode of his popular podcast Cannons Class, Nick Cannon interviewed Richard Griffin, who was known as Professor Griff while with rap group Public Enemy. After making antisemitic comments to the press, Griffin was dismissed from the band in 1989. He joined Cannon to discuss his ouster.
During their discussion, both men made antisemitic remarks. Youre speaking facts, Cannon said. Theres no reason to be scared of anything when youre speaking the truth. He referred to Griffin as a legend and considered it a shame that Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan had been silenced on Facebook.
Griffin declared that the six main media outlets in the United States were controlled by Jewish people. Cannon equated their power to that of the Rothschilds, the wealthy Jewish banking family who are often the target of antisemitic conspiracy theories.
Cannon declared that blacks are the true Hebrews. Its never hate speech, you cant be antisemitic when we are the Semitic people. When we are the same people who they want to be. Thats our birthright. We are the true Hebrews.
A ViacomCBS spokeswoman issued the following statement to announce Cannons termination:
We have spoken with Nick Cannon about an episode of his podcast Cannons Class on YouTube, which promoted hateful speech and spread anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. While we support ongoing education and dialogue in the fight against bigotry, we are deeply troubled that Nick has failed to acknowledge or apologize for perpetuating anti-Semitism, and we are terminating our relationship with him.
Fox News has announced that Cannon will continue as host of the networks competition series, The Masked Singer. Fox issued a statement which said: When we were made aware of Nick Cannon’s interview with Richard Griffin on YouTube, we immediately began a dialogue with Nick. He is clear and remorseful that his words were wrong and lacked both understanding and context, and inadvertently promoted hate. This was important for us to observe. Nick has sincerely apologized, and quickly taken steps to educate himself and make amends.
Certainly, we can all understand ViacomCBS decision. But why does their statement exclude any mention of Cannons equally egregious remarks about the genetic inferiority of whites?
In the clip below, Cannon discusses the power of melanated people. White people fear black people because of the lack that they have of it [melanin], he says. He believes melanin gives blacks their soul and compassion. Cannon tells Griffin:
The people that dont have it and Im going to say this carefully are a little less and, and, and cause Im bringing it all the way around to Minister Farrakhan, to where they may not have the compassion or the, when they were sent to the mountains of Caucasus, when they didnt have the power of the sun, the sun then started to deteriorate them, so then theyre acting out of fear, theyre acting out of low self-esteem, theyre acting out of a deficiency. So, therefore, the only way they can act is evil They have to rob, steal, rape, kill, fight in order to survive.
So, then these people who didnt have what we had when I say we, I am speaking of the melanated people they had to be savages. They had to be barbaric. Theyre in these Nordic mountains, theyre in this rough terrential [sic] environment.
And so, theyre acting as animals. So, theyre the ones that are actually closer to animals. Theyre the ones that are actually the true savages. And then they built up such this, this I want to say warrior but they built up such this, this conquering barbaric mentality.
Yikes… Nick Cannon has gone full black supremacist.
This is 100% certified racist. 🤦🏿♂️ https://t.co/rGgVATPvNk

Cannons comments are so blatantly racist that even rap star Zuby calls him out as the black supremacist that he surely is. Zuby wrote, Yikes… Nick Cannon has gone full black supremacist. This is 100% certified racist.
Later, Zuby tweeted a GIF of a powerful black man with the caption, Me learning that my melanin doesn’t just protect me from sunburn, but also grants me psychic powers, heightened compassion, and a neural connection to all other melanated beings…
We all get why Cannons antisemitic remarks were unacceptable, but why has he been given a pass for his truly extraordinary statements about whites? Because, as identity politics leftists everywhere will tell you, racism against white people is impossible.
In the nearly two months since former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin pressed his knee into George Floyds neck for nearly nine minutes, Black Lives Matter has promoted the narrative that white people are evil, and all is fair in the war against the white man. Cannons just plain stupid comments about whites being genetically inferior and closer to animals than blacks would have been front-page news if they had been uttered by a white person about blacks.
Similarly, racist comments made by non-white people have been routinely ignored by the mainstream media. The case of Sarah Jeong, a young journalist hired by The New York Times editorial board two years ago, comes to mind. The paper of record offered the following response to the internet frenzy that ensued when Jeongs Twitter history was made public.

In February, a black University of Virginia student stood up at the newly opened campus diversity center to announce that she was uncomfortable because there were too many white people around her. She told the white students, Frankly, there’s the whole university for a lot of y’all to be at, and there’s very few spaces for us, so keep that in mind.
Journalist Andy Ngo shares a clip of this young womans PSA in the tweet below.

In response, Spencer Brown, a spokesman for the Young America’s Foundation, rightly pointed out that treating people differently based on the color of their skin is wrong. Brown asked how it could be called a diversity center when members of their community push for segregation based on skin color. The entirety of the UVA campus is open to everyone.
Another example of this same phenomenon occurred last month when an estimated 60,000 protestors gathered in Seattles Judkins Park to participate in a Black Lives Matter Silent March to receive their marching orders. The organizers reminded everyone to respect the line-up they had determined in advance. This can be viewed on the groups website.
March Order:
We ask that all march participants respect the following order of procession. We want to ensure this is a Black led march, but we encourage everyone to march with their family and loved ones.
Black Lives Matter Seattle-King County
Black youth
Black community
People of Color
Elected and appointed officials, political candidates
White allies
Bikes
It doesnt take a rocket scientist to see that the March Order is segregated by race: Blacks first, followed by people of color Asian-Americans and Hispanics and finally their white allies. Well, at least whites came before bikes.
The separation of participants by race is, well, racist. It seems to me that the organizations objective is not equality, but superiority.
Cannons remarks to Griffin, Jeongs offensive tweets about white men, the UVA students request that her white peers leave the Diversity Center, and the marching order for the Black Lives Matter Silent March all meet the definition of racism. Sadly, these four examples merely scratch the surface. Yet corporate media remains silent. If any of these scenarios were reversed, they would cause a white person to be fired, canceled, or even attacked.
Not only is racism against white people not impossible, it sits at the very core of Americas current cultural revolution. And we need to have a national conversation about it.
This is the same conglomerate that owns Mary Trump’s publisher.
Higher IQs are apparently now considered genetic inferiorities.
Let's have a pity party for East Asians and Ashkenazi Jews.
It’s called left wing logic.
melanated people ????? What’s a melanated person?
Whites were driven into the nordic mountains?
Racist?
No, he’s INSANE.
I’ve not read a more absurd, rambling statement in a long time.
The left and their unintended consequences. Popular culture has elevated blacks to an unearned level of importance. What that means is if I own a business, and I’m not forced to hire a black person, there is no way I would consider it. In today’s America, if a small business hires a black person, they are taking an enormous risk.
That’s right.
The IQ hurdle is one they can’t touch with a 10 foot pole.
When talking about “inferiorities”, lets start with the ones who average 70 and below.
“Why ViacomCBS Ignored Nick Cannons Remarks About White Peoples Genetic Inferiority”
That’s an easy one.
Does Viacom have anything to fear from whites? Are they worried that a bunch of angry whites are going to vandalize or loot their headquarters? Are whites going to organize and boycott CBS?

They know we’re saps.
We just need to start this dance and get it over with once and for all. Call it the Boogaloo, 2nd Civil War, 3rd Civil War, whatever the f*ck you want, lets just get it done. I’m growing so tired of all of it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=24&v=fTqy50Zh0n0&feature=emb_title ..... Grandmaster Jay says that he and all his supporters are expert sharpshooters, not sure but I don’t think he’s wearing those Jump & Air Assault wings on the proper side of his blouse. When I got my blood wings, the Parachutist Badge was stuck in my left chest, not my right.
Anywho...here he describes his agenda..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47LcSgDzVKs ..... I wonder if he ever thought of taking his folks across the Atlantic and taking over someplace there. You have, basically, an entire continent with vast reserves of natural resource, precious metals and gems, why not go there?
Here’s a good test. Let’s separate all those “superior” groups and let them create/build/improve on their own.
Oh, no cultural appropriation of such inferior things such as relativity, quantum mechanics, EE, mechanical engineering, chemistry, etc.
Waiting.
Waiting.
Bring it, buttwipes, bring it.
Sadly, these men talking of genetics have taken the slowly evolving issue of equality and race relations in the USA, simply turned it on its head, and returned it to the place it was 100 years ago.
I guess racial genetics now are back on the table.
I’ll say one thing, as ridiculous as all of these people are, this whole thing is giving them the opportunity to expose themselves for who they really are. Sadly, all their white, liberal friends are chuckling, saying to themselves....he’s not talking about me. I like black people. Meanwhile he actually wants to stab all of them in the neck.
Right now I’m melanating some steak tips in red wine and herbs.
They really have set things back 100 years. Just different groups higher or lower on the heiarchy but the same mentality.
Leave it to FAUX News to keep the bigot on.
Crazy + stupid = Nick Cannon.
Nick Cannon Apologizes for Wearing a Turban:
I Feel Ashamed and I look Stupid’
As I understand it, a white guy did say that about blacks. And, he's celebrated as one of history's greatest scientists. Or, experts, if you will. And, his conclusions are taught from sea to shining sea in our government run school system.
Anybody care to name him?
