CELEBRATING BLACK HISTORY MONTH (DESPITE ALL THE EVIDENCE)
As part of what Steve Sailer termed PC’s “war on noticing,” black groups at the University of Minnesota—groups who are so hell-bent on racial self-identification that they go by names such as “the African American and African Studies, Black Faculty and Staff Association, Black Graduate and Professional Student Association, Black Men’s Forum, Black Student Union and Huntley House for African American Males”—have petitioned the school to avoid using racial descriptions when posting crime alerts. Ian Taylor, president of the Black Men’s Forum, lamented that “The repeated black, black, black suspect…what that does [is] it really discomforts the mental and physical comfort for students on campus because they feel like suspicions begin to increase.” Crime victims are counseled not to notice their assailants’ skin color so as to avert any future instances of such discomfort.
Although we’re only a month into the year, it’s going to be hard to top this essay by a thin white female yoga student as she breaks down in tears after a yoga class where she noticed a fat black yoga student seemed uncomfortable. We know we’re not supposed to notice things, but we’ve noticed that black people always seem to be uncomfortable around fragile, self-loathing, and effusively apologetic white writers.
Still, it’s a good thing that segregation ended and that blacks are freely permitted to roam public schools and shopping centers. If they make you uncomfortable, you need to check your privilege and learn that your comfort doesn’t matter.
