Wokeists are racists, no doubt about it.
 
The hate mail is an example of what she's talking about.
 
I wish that the workshop on the "harmful effects of whiteness" had been allowed to proceed.

People should be able to talk about how perfectly horrible "white" people are.

Then it would only have been fair to allow a workshop on the "harmful effects of _ _ _ _ _ ness."

The traumatized families of the dozen New York City subway murder victims last year could have testified at such a workshop.

Fair is fair.
 

Whiteness, not white people.

Poverty ridden, heavily segregated ghettos are an example of it.
 
As are all too many 'persons of colour'.

As I have stated many times, blacks are far more racist against writes than whites against blacks. Saw it my whole life growing up. (I was not brought up in a southern racist state, that likely makes a differance)

Even Chris Rock spoke to this in one of his comedy sketches. Your daughter brings a black man home and no one cares. A black man brings a white women home and mom explodes.
 

I agree with this post in principle but two points.

First, subways are crazy safe. Safer than Walmart in Arkansas.

Second, everyone seems to miss the real problem, this is about a class system not skin color.

This link does not refute my post in any way.

It only speaks to the perception of crime and the resources being wasted on it.

My post stands.
 
That isn’t what was revealed by this story and it is telling that you can’t even see it.
You love racism. We get it.

This kind of identity politics is exactly what is wrong with America now. Poor MLK must be turning over in his grave.

Whiteness, not white people.
What a retarded comment. White people is exactly what wokesters mean.
