Professor: ‘Whiteness’ Is ‘Terror,’ Confederate Flag Represents ‘Capitalism’

I’ve granted been out of college for some time, but I sometimes think professors play a game with each other where they say ridiculous things just to see how many people will agree, and if they can even get away with it.  There is no way anyone rationally thinks this…

This week, Robinson proclaimed that white people — “white folks” — believe that being polite provides immunity from her biting analysis of power structures based on race.

The University of Memphis professor has also said she believes marriage that should be “widely accessible to a range of relationship types” and that black people — “black folks” — obtain fewer economic benefits from marriage because they have less money. (She doesn’t appear to discuss the economic effects of marriages involving rich black people or poor white people.)

You can read more of these totally rational and well measured comments here[2]. Our best and brightest indeed!
