At least it seems that way judging from an infographic they put up in the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture, which already had a section devoted to “Whiteness“.
Here’s the infographic.
Incredible is it not? We often see accusations about “Systemic Racism” in the USA, and perhaps you could take this as an example, where the graduates in Critical Race Theory have apparently imbibed the beliefs of White Supremacists so completely that they now regurgitate them without critical thought, even as they acknowledge that such things have been “internalized” by “People of Color”.
Perhaps they should just hire David Duke and be done with it. After all, how different would this infographic be if he’d written it?
Reblogged this on Utopia, you are standing in it!.
Er, am I missing something, but isn’t this “the American Dream”? Or it least it was until they began diluting it be letting in Roman Catholics like Tom Hunter from the 1850s! 😳😂🇻🇦
Is a fair point that dominant cultures don’t “see” themselves as a cultural construct, and perceive anything that deviates from what is supposedly “natural” as abnormal and often deficient.
Ah! So you spotted the Protestant Work Ethic bit!
Yeah, that grates. Does it get me an Oppressed Vote?
OTOH historian Niall Ferguson argued that it was one of the six Killer Apps that enabled modern Western Civlisation, so who am to argue?
Even if he is just another fuckin’ walloping Scottish git.
I mean “Majority rules (when whites have power)” is pertinent in NZ context in the light of discussion elsewhere today on No Minister about the supposed “need” to abolish the Maori seats. They’ve been there for some 150 years, no one has cared much, and suddenly just when MMP politics means those seats in effect hold the balance of power after every election…and suddenly their supposed inherent “racism” is an issue?!
Good Grief Tommy Boi, how many hours do you spend trawling the Interwebs so you can finds snippets to keep you permanently outraged?
Person. Man. Woman. Camera. Tv.
