Northwestern University Offers Divisive and Racially Charged Course Promoting Anti-White Agenda

According to Campus Reform, Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, a liberal suburb of Chicago,  is offering a course next semester called “Unsettling Whiteness.”

Yet again, academia is promoting an anti-White agenda and insulting people purely based on their skin color.

“The course appears on a spring course list for the university’s Department of Black Studies. The brief description on the list states that the course will make “the historical, political, and cultural formation of whiteness in Western modernity visible and narratable for commentary and analysis.”

The course seems to imply that Whiteness has not been studied despite the fact that colleges across the country talk about, and criticize White culture

Yet again, just like many courses in The United States institutes of so-called higher education, whiteness is associated with White supremacy.

Who’s the professor teaching this race-baiting? His name is Barnor Hesse, the Department’s Director of Undergraduate Studies and an Associate Professor of Black Studies, Political Science, and Sociology.

Hesse’s bio reads, “Barnor Hesse is a political and critical theorist concerned with decolonial questions of colonial-racial modernity, the western political, and Black politics in the lives, conceptualizations and formations of the Black Diaspora. He is an Associate Professor of Black Studies, Political Science and Sociology. He obtained his PhD in Government (Ideology and Discourse Analysis) from the University of Essex (United Kingdom).”

ESPN Doubles Down on Making CFP About Race

On Thursday night, Notre Dame eked out a 27-24 win over Penn State in the Orange Bowl, setting the Fighting Irish up to attempt to claim their first national title since 1988. The team was led by its head coach, Marcus Freeman, who has become quite a superstar in the college football world lately. He’s a class act and comes across as a pretty decent human in general, something even his opponents recognize (heck, he’s the reason my Georgia Bulldogs aren’t in the playoffs), and he’s obviously a great coach. The entire nation has celebrated Freeman for both of these accomplishments. 

Well, the entire nation except ESPN. All the sports network seems to see is his race. 

Ever since it was determined that Freeman or Penn State head coach James Franklin would be one of the two coaches in the championship game, ESPN has been beside itself, breathlessly reporting about this idea of “making history.” For the first time, a black man would coach a team in the College Football Playoff National Championship. 

Fair enough. As I reported last month, it is historically significant, but it shouldn’t overshadow the accomplishments this man has achieved as an individual. But ESPN just won’t give it up. As soon as Notre Dame got the win last night, the network’s sideline reporter Molly McGrath interviewed Freeman and led with this question: “…you are the first black head coach to go to a national championship game in college football… how much does this mean to you?”  

Freeman, who has already addressed this topic and seemed to think it was important but not as important as the sports media wants to make it, took some time to respond before saying, “I’ve said this before — I don’t ever want to take attention away from the team. It is an honor, and I hope all coaches, minorities, black, Asian, white — it doesn’t matter — great people continue to get opportunities to lead young men like this. But this ain’t about me. This is about us. And we’re gonna celebrate what we’ve done because it’s something special.”

Twilight Of The Race Hustle

Were you thinking of Daniel Penny this weekend? A year and a half ago, the US marine veteran, age 26, subdued one Jordan Neely, 30, a homeless schizophrenic with a record of 42 arrests who was menacing riders on a New York City subway car. Neely was, at the time, a fugitive on an arrest warrant for felony assault on a sixty-seven-year-old woman. Penny applied a choke hold after Neely declared he was of a mind to kill somebody on the train. Neely was still alive when the cops came, but they declined to give him CPR because he was filthy and an apparent drug-user, and they feared getting AIDS or hepatitis from giving him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. . . so Neely died there in the subway.

Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg indicted Penny for manslaughter in the second degree and secondarily for criminally negligent homicide. His trial has been going on all month. On Friday, the jury reported its inability to reach a verdict on the manslaughter charge. Instead of declaring a mistrial, Judge Maxwell T. Wiley dismissed the primary charge and directed the jury to continue deliberations this week on the secondary negligent homicide charge, a procedurally dubious action.

Everybody knows that the trial is an absurd injustice, but that has been the temper of our society for many years now in the age of the Woke Jacobins. Unlike the original Jacobins of 1794 in Paris, who were ultra-extreme idealists, our Woke Jacobins are extreme cynics, imagining only the worst about the project of civilization. Hence, their alt-project to de-civilize the rest of us.

Race-Obsessed Rep. Jasmine Crockett Is Furious Texas Elected White Congressmen Using ‘Black and Brown and Asian Bodies’

When it comes to incorrigible racists, one can only pray that someday they discover the error of their ways.

Until then, since nearly all American racists have always voted Democrat, Republicans should encourage their wayward opponents to keep talking.

In a clip posted to the social media platform X, Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas, one of the most unrepentant racists to sit in Congress since the century-long era of segregation, bitterly complained about two new white Republican congressmen winning elections on the backs of “black and brown and Asian bodies.”

According to The Hill, Crockett’s comments came Thursday during a House Oversight Committee hearing on the Census Bureau.

During an exchange with bureau director Robert Santos, Crockett complained that Texas’s 2020 census-related demographics did not produce proper racial outcomes.

“We know that specifically, Texas added four million people,” Crockett said of the state’s 2020 census results. “Of those four million people, do you want to take a guess at how many were Anglos?”

She emphasized the word “guess” in a way that interrogators generally do when the answer to their question displeases them.

Meanwhile, Santos incorrectly guessed that “Anglos” — apparently Crockett’s blanket term for light-skinned people everywhere — made up more than half of Texas’s four million new people.

But Crockett countered that the vast majority of new Texans actually qualified as non-white: 95 percent of them, she said.

By the congresswoman’s racist logic, that should mean more dark-skinned colleagues for her. But it did not, so that must prove something sinister.

“So they took those black and brown and Asian bodies, and guess what? Do you think that we got a new black, brown or Asian seat? Somehow, the way that they do their Republican math in the state of Texas, that amounted to two new white seats,” she said.

Imagine a mind so repellent that it generates phrases such as “white seats.”

Biden Appointed Justice: Banning Child Sex Changes Is Like Banning Interracial Marriage 

Biden’s Supreme Court Justice pick, Ketanji Brown Jackson, the one who can’t describe what a woman is, has argued that banning sex changes on children is akin to banning interracial marriages.

The Supreme Court is currently addressing a case concerning the constitutionality of a Tennessee law banning puberty blockers and hormone therapy for ‘transgender’ identifying children that was enacted last year.

Jackson confronted Tennessee Solicitor General Matt Rice, who was defending the law, by citing an old case regarding the state of Virginia banning interracial marriage. She then argued that somehow this can be compared to gender reassignment surgery on kids. 

“The question was whether this was discriminatory because it applied to both races,” Jackson said.

“But as I read the statute here, I mean the case here, it states that Virginia is one of the states that punishes marriages on the basis of race,” she continued.

Left-Leaning Mayor Accused of Hate Crime Hoax, DOJ Declines to Act

Independent Colorado Springs Mayor Yemi Mobolade has been accused of staging a hate crime in order to sway the outcome of the election.

An FBI official told The Daily Wire that Mobolade was referred for prosecution over alleged false statements involving the hoax. Despite his alleged role in the hoax, the Department of Justice declined to pursue the case, citing that he is the city’s first black mayor.

Acting U.S. Attorney for the District of Colorado Matt Kirsch announced that three of the mayor’s supporters were charged in the hate crime hoax.

Newly released court documents obtained by KRDO show that Mobolade, a left-leaning African immigrant, had continuous contact with Derrick Patrick Bernard, one of the suspects, prior to the incident, the day of and after the incident.

Dem Rep Goes On Crazed Rant Against “The White Man” In Congress

Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett burst into a loud rant during a House Oversight Committee markup session Wednesday in regards to the Dismantle DEI Act and similar legislation, asserting that “there has been no oppression for the white man in this country.”

Crockett screeched “You can then misuse words like oppression. There has been no oppression for the white man in this country. You tell me which white man was dragged out of their homes. You tell me which white man got dragged all the way across an ocean and told that you are gonna go and work, we are gonna steal your wives, we are gonna rape your wives. That didn’t happen. That is oppression!”

“We didn’t ask to be here,” Crockett continued to yell, adding “We aren’t the same migrants that y’all constantly come up against. We didn’t run away from home. We were stolen.”

She further proclaimed, “So yeah, we are going to sit here and be offended when you are gonna sit here and act like, and don’t let it escape you that it is white men on this side of the aisle telling us, people of color on this side of the aisle, that y’all are the ones being oppressed, that y’all are the ones being harmed.”

REVEALED: Woke Seattle school board chief who shut down gifted and talented sites because they had too many white and Asian students was accused of RACISM by colleagues during anti-racism training scheme

The woke Seattle school board chief who shuttered its gifted and talented programs because they had too many white and Asian students was previously accused of racism by a colleague, documents from the probe show. 

Along with another board member, in 2021 Chandra Hampson was found to have violated the policy against harassing, intimidating and bullying over their treatment of two black employees who were working on an anti-racism plan. 

The anonymous complainants accused Hampson of launching ‘an orchestrated campaign of bullying, escalating intimidation, gaslighting and retaliation’ against them, according to the investigation report. 

Although investigators did not find ‘clear evidence’ that Hampson and her board colleague Zachary DeWolf discriminated against the staffers because of their race, it did conclude that they ‘used their positions and authority to their detriment’.  

Three years later, Hampson is embroiled in a new race scandal at the school over the closure of its controversial gifted and talented programs. 

The district began phasing out its Highly Capable Cohort schools and classrooms for advanced students in the 2021-22 school year because they found it had too many racial inequities. 

School bosses said black and Hispanic students were underrepresented at the schools.

According to Seattle Public School data, of the highly capable students in the 2022-23 school year, 52 percent were white, 16 percent were Asian and 3.4 percent were black.

During a January 22, 2020, school board meeting, parents of black students in the Highly Capable Cohort asked the board to consider finding ways to incorporate students of color into the gifted program rather than shut it down.

Then school board vice president Chandra Hampson slammed those parents saying, ‘this is a pretty masterful job at tokenizing a really small community of color within the existing cohort.’

FBI Investigating After Black People Receive Racist and Offensive Text Messages About ‘Picking Cotton’

The FBI on Thursday announced it is investigating after black people received “racist and offensive” text messages.

“The FBI is aware of the offensive and racist text messages sent to individuals around the country and is in contact with the Justice Department and other federal authorities on the matter,” the FBI said in a statement on Thursday.

“As always, we encourage members of the public to report threats of physical violence to local law enforcement authorities,” the FBI said.

According to reports, black people in Texas, South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia and other states received text messages telling them they had “been selected for cotton picking.”

CBS News reported:

Officials and universities in several U.S. states condemned racist text messages that were sent to Black residents on Wednesday. The messages, which had almost identical language, told the recipient they had been “selected for cotton picking.”

The texts were received by people in states including Alabama, Texas, Georgia, Florida, Maryland, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Ohio, CBS News found. NAACP President Derrick Johnson condemned the messages and said they represent an “alarming increase in vile and abhorrent rhetoric.”

The texts were sent from numbers with area codes in at least 25 different states, CBS News found. By Thursday, several numbers were disconnected, while others went to voicemail that identified them as TextNow users, a provider that allows people to create phone numbers for free.

Washington Sued for ‘Racially Conscious’ Homeownership Program

The Foundation Against Intolerance and Racism (FAIR) submitted a complaint on Tuesday against the Washington State Housing Finance Commission (WSHFC) for its Covenant Homeownership Program, which explicitly bars certain applicants from eligibility on the basis of race. The commission cites the 2024 Covenant Homeownership Program Study as empirically justifying its “race-conscious” special purpose credit program, but it’s unlikely to pass strict scrutiny.

The Washington State Legislature passed the Covenant Homeownership Act in May 2023 to remedy “past and ongoing discrimination and its impacts on access to credit and homeownership for black, indigenous, and people of color.” Past discrimination includes 50,000 clauses in home deeds and homeowners associations that were used “between the 1920’s and 1960’s throughout Washington state to restrict housing based on race, religion, and ethnicity,” according to the commission. The Covenant Homeownership’s special purpose credit program offers certain first-time homebuyers a zero-interest rate loan for downpayment and closing cost assistance to address discrimination and reduce the racial disparity in homeownership.

The program raises its revenue by collecting a $100 document recording assessment for real estate transactions, which the commission projected will “generate between $75 million and $100 million each year.” The program is restricted to those Washingtonians whose ancestors (or themselves) were subjected to state-based racial discrimination in housing contracts before the federal Fair Housing Act of 1968.

Further qualifications for the program include earning the area’s median income or less, being a first-time homebuyer, and either being or having an ancestor who was Hispanic, Native American, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, other Pacific Islander, Korean, or Asian Indian and lived in the state before April 1968. Limiting access to the program’s special purpose credit program in this way “facially discriminates on the basis of race,” according to the complaint.

WSHFC acknowledges the program’s racial requirements, describing it as going “beyond ‘colorblind’ or ‘race-neutral’ assistance” to allow Washington “to directly remedy the harm caused by its discriminatory policies.” Although the commission insists the program “does not represent a formal reparations effort,” the United Nations, whose definition the commission cites, disagrees. One of the U.N.’s four reparations measures is “compensation…provided for any economically assessable damage, loss of earnings, loss of property, loss of economic opportunities, [or] moral damages.”
