White students undergo weekly ‘deconstructing whiteness’ program at Northwestern

The downward spiral continues....

White college students are undergoing a weekly “deconstructing whiteness” program at Northwestern University.
The “6-part workshop series for undergraduate students who self-identify as white” launched in January and runs through March, according to the university’s website. Students enrolled chose to do so – it is voluntary.
A spokesman for the prestigious private university located outside Chicago declined to give The College Fix details on the program, such as how many students enrolled and how it’s been received so far.
“It’s part of Northwestern’s Social Justice Education effort to create learning opportunities for our students,” Bob Rowley, a spokesman for the campus, told The College Fix in an email, providing a link to the social justice webpage and adding: “Beyond that, we don’t have anything more for you on it.”

I just don't understand the guilt and self-hate. Being white is pretty fricking awesome.

Seems to me the social scientists who come up with this crap are racist. There are no common values or experiences that come with "whiteness."

frick. I know how I'm going to make money now.
Me: "Now, let's talk about why we're here."
Student: "Hey, I'm Jimmy...and I'm white. "
All: "Hello, Jimmy."
Student: "I've been struggling with being white for about 22 years now....and....I "
Me: "It's okay, Jimmy. You're here now. You have recognized that you being white has caused so many different people so much pain. Now that you're here, the healing can begin."

I'm all about leaving things like this up to individuals who want to learn, but should we really let white students off the hook just because they didn't volunteer?
It seems like we could do a lot more to fight against racism if all white students had to volunteer for the course.

No, it needs to be voluntary. We need to know who does not recognize their white privilege. That way we can start the cleansing.

Yea, until you can't get a job because someone less qualified will help with "diversity".
Sorry, I'll check my privelige.

If LSU had done this, I would have gone to Bama.
Ok, maybe not. But still you get my point.

No sympathy for them. I hope they don't reproduce.
Good riddance.
