There must be something in the water in Oregon that’s driving people race crazy. Perhaps out of jealousy for all of the attention Oregon State University has been getting for their “white privilege” awareness classes and nine day Martin Luther King Jr. celebration, an Oregon community college has dedicated an entire month to shaming white people.
That’s right, Portland Community College has designated April as “Whiteness History Month,” a month in which they will explore how the “construct of whiteness” ruined the world and created the racism that “thrives” in America today.
The college-wide project is said to be an effort to change campus climate by challenging race narratives through an exploration of the social constructs of “whiteness”. According to them “whiteness and racism is everywhere”. Apparently it’s an ideology based on beliefs, values, behaviors, habits and attitudes that result in the unequal distribution of power and privilege based on skin color.
Their proof for the existence of white privilege is found in 17th century ideology. Once again, modern people are claiming offense for something they weren’t around to be offended by, and they’re blaming white people for an act that they weren’t alive to commit.

This is so crazy and they are plain idiots, guess Obama and Sharptons words have made them go over the line to insanity.
Is it a shame that slavery existed????Yes!!!
I’m not going to apologize for something I personally didn’t do or wouldn’t have done!!!!
MLK Jr. had a dream where a man is judged by the content of his character,not by the color of their skin!!!
All I see now,is people being Ts that they are wrong for being white!!
I was once told,by a ack man,I cant relate!!!?!
So I assume that, I can’t relate means,that I don’t know what it’s like to over looked or turned away because of the color of my skin!?!
I am a white man and I grew up 18 miles East of Los Angeles!!The population was at least 75%hispanic and my oldest brother married a Mexican lady,they have 4 children!!
To make a long story short,I grew up as a minority! I was called ever negative name by most teenagers I went to school with,I think I can imagine/relate,to what I was told by my co worker about not being able to relate!!
However I have never used the n word in over 20 years!!When I did it was in retaliation for the names I was being called!!Was I right to do that,no,nobody has a right to use racial slurs to describe anyone!!!
Our skin has nothing to do with the content of our characters!!thats my take on it anyway!!!
Ever notice they never talk about the people that died freeing their dumbasses?
They should be ashamed of there behavior,disgrave.
