Is this University racist against white people? (2 Viewers)

[johnjohn]

They definitely could have worded that better than they did, but everyone knows that it's impossible to be racist against whites.

this is the kind of stuff i am talking about. It is why people aren't afraid to be racist against white people, and it is indeed a real problem.

so whats your story,have you been repeatedly discriminated against? (im guessing you`re white)

I am human.

im sure you are. You just seem to be VERY invested in the topic,so again have you been discriminated against? If so how ?

 

[Clifford]

Gotta say- his method and think skin are grating, but if I read his words right, bottom-line, this johnjohn guy wants everybody to be treated the same regardless of skin color. A very nice thought.

Welcome to... the history of the world? I hope you can figure out ways of moving forward in life without being aggressively pissed off, seemingly all the time.

indeed, shouldn't everyone ?

Of course. But history has proven otherwise. So what's your plan? Pointing out methods in place that try to deal with historically systemic racism by putting white people at a perceived disadvantage is incredibly- woefully- short and small-sighted. And I hope it also doesn't involve acting the way the way you've acted in this forum... because eliminating racism is a noble, idealistic cause not befitting the methods you've shown so far (starting threads with clear intent of riling people up and then becoming annoyed, dismissive and feeling hypocritically persecuted when they are).

All I can do is make people aware about it, and it will be awareness that potentially brings changes.

as for the part you typed in the ( ) I disagree with that. I appreciate your attempts at being a forum psychologist and trying to understand my real intentions but I assure you they are all noble and the intention isn't to rile anyone up.

At the same time, if people get riled up when I point out racism I am not going to let that bully me into be quiet and letting racism go on without anyone saying anything.

Forum should be a way for the common folks to discuss issues(be it important issues like racism or lesser issues) peacefully and maturely, which is what I have been trying very hard to do. It is because I am a christian I am able to have so much self-control when faced with abusive responses that are unwarranted, and I hope I can remain strong because I don't want to sink to their level of hate.

People are already aware of racism. So far, you're not telling anybody a thing they don't know.

But you're lacking some self-awareness if you think you're exhibiting the bolded in here... you're really not. I don't claim to know what type of person you are- and I actually believe everybody's good at heart. All I have to go from are your words in this forum, and so far too many of them are mean-spirited, argumentative, dismissive and hypocritically defensive.

multiple people in this thread have said white people don't face racism in the USA, so you are wrong about them knowing.

Also, no one here seems to get its okay to be racist against white people so I am trying to educate on that as well

So you're educating us on the fact that it's ok to be racist against white people? You sure are going about it in a strange way, but at least you clarified the main point you want people to walk away with. Kill Whitey!

I am trying to get people to understand that everyone isn't afraid to be racist against white people.

And we, like our brave brothers and sisters, should take our racism against white devils out of the shadows and proudly declare it to the world? This is actually a much more inspirational message than I originally thought. Preach on bruh.

Another good article: Diversity at HBCUs: How Alcorn State is Leading the Charge

Some excerpts:

Through the work of the Office, Alcorn is leading a new effort of inclusion and diversity among four-year historically black colleges and universities, a novel concept within a culture created to advance education and opportunity in response to Jim Crow and segregated higher education in the south.

Tony Jay Innouvong, a graduate assistant in the Office of Diversity at Alcorn and a member of its Diversity Champions, says the globalized marketplace demands that black colleges embrace diversity, and that the communities served by these institutions have an equitable stake in developing the nation.

In an increasingly diversified world and globalized market economy, diversity increases the competitiveness of a black college, says Innouvong, a first-generation college graduate and the son of Laotian immigrants. Not only that, but it is instrumental in encouraging cultural awareness, sensitivity, and competency. Cultivating diversity at historically black colleges thus potentially births individuals with competitive skills to work in the global economy, which can build the value of the education and experience received at a historically black college.

The unique and enriching experiences that you have at an HBCU cannot be replicated, but increased diversity means that you not only do you see through the eyes of another, but you also give them the opportunity to experience the lessons learned in college through your vantage point, Yusuf said. To be able to build connections with my peers and give them insight to how Im the same as them but of a different cultural background and to be received with open arms shows how diversity at HBCUs can thrive and be successful.

Clearly, the research on HBCUs continues to affirm what we already know HBCUs, in general, deliver a high-quality academic experience through a close-knit family atmosphere in which students can be loved into their greatness, echoes Greenfield. Students at HBCUs report greater engagement in campus life, richer involvement with faculty in research, higher rates of pursuing graduate study, and a host of other meaningful outcomes as a result of best practices in education. Therefore, as greater numbers of students from various backgrounds matriculate at HBCUs and encounter the special qualities here, they can become powerful partners in championing the HBCU story.

Advocates and university representatives publicly call for reduced representation of black students and increased enrollment of non-black students at HBCUs in the name of diversity and they weren't flamed for it. The precise example you requested in your challenge. Feel free to poop on the chess board.

Bump.

The very fact there are black colleges is racist against white people. It seems their racist school has had trouble filling up due to black people going to other universities(this has been stated in articles you have posted) so now black colleges are forced to be less racist, and saying hey, we don't just accept black people here you know.

Clearly that isn't the same

So you didn't read the linked article in the above quote? Budgetary considerations were unmentioned with respect to Alcorn State. This is precisely the example you requested (a university administrator calling for reduced representation of black students among the campus population and not getting flamed for it). In fact, the WWU guy is getting far more negative press than the administrators and university representatives in the example I provided. If you are going to claim otherwise, I have no choice but to conclude that you are intellectually dishonest and there is no need to discuss your so-called challenge further.

Johnjohn's message is consistent and clear: its ok to be racist against white people, and we should follow the examples of others who aren't afraid to let their hatred of the white race shine through.

Such crap. It might be true in theory if we really had entitlement and "reverse racism". But the fact is that so many minorities start off in such terrible conditions that any help we give them makes very little difference. It is not an even playing field and never has been. And what's really damaging is when people like you pretend it is, and then try to stop the small amount of improvement that we as a country have tried to establish.

Cultivating diversity at historically black colleges thus potentially births individuals with competitive skills to work in the global economy, which can build the value of the education and experience received at a historically black college.

The unique and enriching experiences that you have at an HBCU cannot be replicated, but increased diversity means that you not only do you see through the eyes of another, but you also give them the opportunity to experience the lessons learned in college through your vantage point, Yusuf said. To be able to build connections with my peers and give them insight to how Im the same as them but of a different cultural background and to be received with open arms shows how diversity at HBCUs can thrive and be successful.

Clearly, the research on HBCUs continues to affirm what we already know HBCUs, in general, deliver a high-quality academic experience through a close-knit family atmosphere in which students can be loved into their greatness, echoes Greenfield. Students at HBCUs report greater engagement in campus life, richer involvement with faculty in research, higher rates of pursuing graduate study, and a host of other meaningful outcomes as a result of best practices in education. Therefore, as greater numbers of students from various backgrounds matriculate at HBCUs and encounter the special qualities here, they can become powerful partners in championing the HBCU story.

Advocates and university representatives publicly call for reduced representation of black students and increased enrollment of non-black students at HBCUs in the name of diversity and they weren't flamed for it. The precise example you requested in your challenge. Feel free to poop on the chess board.

Bump.

The very fact there are black colleges is racist against white people. It seems their racist school has had trouble filling up due to black people going to other universities(this has been stated in articles you have posted) so now black colleges are forced to be less racist, and saying hey, we don't just accept black people here you know.

Clearly that isn't the same

Another good article: Diversity at HBCUs: How Alcorn State is Leading the Charge

Some excerpts:

Through the work of the Office, Alcorn is leading a new effort of inclusion and diversity among four-year historically black colleges and universities, a novel concept within a culture created to advance education and opportunity in response to Jim Crow and segregated higher education in the south.

Tony Jay Innouvong, a graduate assistant in the Office of Diversity at Alcorn and a member of its Diversity Champions, says the globalized marketplace demands that black colleges embrace diversity, and that the communities served by these institutions have an equitable stake in developing the nation.

This reverse racism garbage is a real crutch on America's youth, imo, and if you think of reasons why America's next decade might be worse than its last, this has got to be on that list.

Entitlement almost always stands in the way of innovation and progress.

Such crap. It might be true in theory if we really had entitlement and "reverse racism". But the fact is that so many minorities start off in such terrible conditions that any help we give them makes very little difference. It is not an even playing field and never has been. And what's really damaging is when people like you pretend it is, and then try to stop the small amount of improvement that we as a country have tried to establish.

timtim thinks minorities are in need of help.

Minorities are just as capable of helping themselves as white people are, to suggest otherwise is racist. Please stop being condescending towards anyone not white, timtim

I chased the mean bullies away so you don't have to worry anymore. Go back to the special ed room, nobody will pick on you I promise.

Oh look, this liberal that pretends to care about the needs of everyone is mocking people with special needs. How ironic

1. I'm not a liberal.

2. I'm not mocking them; I'm mocking you.

You are mocking me by saying I have special needs, so if you think saying someone has special needs is insulting to them then you must think very negatively about people with special needs.

If you want to insult/mock a person then perhaps you should work on doing that without having to insult an entire group of people, thanks.

[Henry Ford]

Assuming that the purpose of college is to prepare one for the real world and expose one to differing perspectives and opinions:

Any kind of homogeneity in a student body is a bit of a failure. I don't think he's wrong - if black applicants aren't applying to his University, then there's some kind of issue there. It's not that there are no black candidates whose grades will get them in. It isn't Harvard - they accept 80% of their applicants. They accept people with a 3.0 and 1500 on the SATs - out of 2400.

The failure is in their inability to attract a multicultural student body.

 

[Clifford]

Hey johnjohn, why are you not being a man and admitting you lost your challenge? If you are going to congratulate Tim for admitting he was wrong, why won't you do the same?

 

[Chaka]

I think we are all winners Cliff.

Who wants a gold star?

 

[kentric]

No worries whites that age will be the minority then so you shouldn't be so white twenty years from now.

Do you think whites will be forced to only live in certain neighborhoods?

People are being forced to live in certain neighborhoods? What country you live in?

So johnjohn still not admitting to getting pwn3d?

 

[CBusAlex]

Johnjohn, does a historically _____ college attempting to admit more non-_____ students make them more racist or less racist? (Hint: if your answer changes depending on which race you fill in the blank with, then you're the racist.)

 

[Chaka]

JJ never established racism in the OP (because there was none in Shepard's comments) so everything that comes from his false premise is fruit from a poisoned vine. JJ's argument is predicated on him trying to create the perception of racism where there was none. Unfortunately for most in this thread it allowed him to create a virtually unassailable position do defend his false premise and make grandiose statements.

So just have fun with this thread and try not to take anything he says too seriously, when you do it makes him feel more important.
