Making someone feel bad for an inherent quality, which they have no control over, is pointless. Making someone acknowledge their privilege, so they may be aware and so they can speak out against racism or sexism or whatever, has more value to society, in my opinion.
Holy fuck, thank you! In the last ~2 years there has been insurmountable pressure to be ashamed of being white. I feel like these race-baiters want 'white' people to feel bad about being 'white', and place a blanket over all of us stating how we are racist not matter what we do.
I'm deeply saddened to read that someone sees a group of white people come together, for academic reasons (whatever they might be), only to be compared to such a hateful organization as the KKK. Shame on you.
The discussion has obviously been centered on U.S. schools so far, so please don't be pedantic. White people do not face discrimination in the United States.
By saying that white people can't have a white student union, you are denying white people their right to congregate -- which in itself is discriminatory. The Bill of Rights is there for ALL people no matter what race, creed, or what version of a fucking attack helicopter you self-identify as.
This great man would be ashamed at the people who are fighting the war on race -- no matter what front you're struggling on. End ALL racism, love each other, and be equal.
