Where are you on the "whiteness scale?" Are you and your family ready to "abolish yourselves?

 Submitted by: J Cryots

I think you would be hard-pressed to find another time in history where a nation has become as racist as this one has become in recent years   . Telling 65-70% of the nation's people tat they must go away and stop being who they are, based on unchangeable birth characteristics is, in a word, NUTS. Imagine if we told "people of color" that they need to abolish their identity based on their skin color or hair texture. Who wouldn't say that was a racist stance?   Yet, here we are, with more and more institutions, including the government, pushing overt racism against white citizens. Why do white people tolerate this nonsense?  White citizens have the numbers, the firearms, the money, the law, the skills, and the first principles to push back -- but largely, we don't.  The media has made white people impotent in their own defense.....terrified of being called a racist,  while the media itself is pushing its brand of racism, 24/7.  That is absurd and white people need to stop being cowards and stand up to the real racism being pushed and propagated against them.  It is time we reject racism for any group of Americans, including white people. No exceptions based on skin color, hair texture, or any other physical characteristic which nobody can control. 
 
 

Pure Racism: New York City Principal Sends Home White Identities List to Parents to Convert Them to the “White Traitors” Stage of Whiteness

Critical race theory watchdog Christopher F. Rufo reported on Monday that the principal of a New York school sent a list of white identities to white parents so that they could try to convert themselves from white supremacists to white abolitionists.
The East Side Community School teacher even included a white supremacism spectrum for parents to self-identify.
According to East Side Community School the goal is to become a white abolitionist. But these steps are subjective, not clearly defined and ALWAYS up for evaluation by your peers.

The principal of East Side Community School in New York sent white parents this “tool for action,” which tells them they must become “white traitors” and then advocate for full “white abolition.”

Apparently this list of the eight “white identities” has been passed around on Facebook for a couple of years.
Its author is Professor Barnor Hesse.
Hesse is an Associate Professor of African American Studies, Political Science, and Sociology
His research interests include post-structuralism and political theory, black political thought, modernity and coloniality, blackness and affect, race and governmentality, conceptual methodologies, postcolonial studies. His book, Un/settled Multiculturalisms: Diasporas, Entanglements, Transruptions, reconsiders the meanings of multiculturalism in the West. In introducing a new conceptual language, the volume stresses the importance of distinguishing between the multicultural as a signifier of the unsettled meanings of cultural differences, and multiculturalism as the signified of attempts to “fix” their meaning in national imaginaries. The book also casts the debates about multiculturalism in the contexts of globalization, post-colonialism, and what Barnor Hesse calls “multicultural transruptions”–which he sees as resurgent, irrepressible multicultural issues.
