Portland Community College [in Oregon] has designated April "Whiteness History Month" (WHM), an "educational project" exploring how the "construct of whiteness" creates racial inequality. "'Whiteness History Month: Context, Consequences, and Change' is a multidisciplinary, district-wide, educational project examining race and racism through an exploration of the construction of whiteness, its origins, and heritage," PCC states on its website. "Scheduled for the month of April 2016, the project seeks to inspire innovative and practical solutions to community issues and social problems that stem from racism."

An Oregon community college's announcement this week that it has designated April as "Whiteness History Month" has sparked controversy online, reigniting discourse on race and racism and raising questions about the best ways to approach such issues. The initiative by Portland Community College (PCC), which has about 90,000 students, is geared toward the study of whiteness, its origins as a social construct, and its impact on society, according to the project's website ... The stiffest opponents of the project dismiss PCC's explanation, calling the endeavor an attack on white people and white culture ... The American Conservative dubbed the project "Hate Whitey Month," and described it as "plainly designed to convince white students to despise themselves and their culture."

According to Portland State University Professor's Rachel Sanders' "White Privilege" course, "whiteness" must be dismantled if racial justice will ever be achieved. The course description states that "whiteness is the lynchpin of structures of racial meaning and racial inequality in the United States" and claims that "to preserve whiteness is to preserve racial injustice." Students taking the course will "endeavor to make whiteness strange." In order to make whiteness strange, the description says students must "interrogate whiteness as an unstable legal, political, social, and cultural construction." ... Portland State University isn't the only university offering classes in whiteness. The University of Alabama-Birmingham, for example, is offering a course titled "Whiteness Studies" this fall, which "seeks to uncover and de-center the fiction of whiteness."

A Virginia school district has banned the use of an educational video about racial inequality after some parents complained that its messaging is racially divisive. The four-minute, animated video - "Structural Discrimination: The Unequal Opportunity Race" - was shown last week to students at an assembly at Glen Allen High School, in Henrico County, as a part of the school's Black History Month program ... In Glen Allen, about 14 miles north of Richmond, some parents complained, calling it a "white guilt video." Henrico County Public Schools officials initially defended the video, saying it was "one component of a thoughtful discussion in which all viewpoints were encouraged." But after the story began to spread nationally, school officials switched gears, labeling the video "racially divisive" two days later.
Of course. The filthy Jews has fully infiltrated the American educational system and now it's being taught that it's wrong to be White. The White American tolerance has allowed this and they're the only ones that can fix this. 838
