‘Dear White People’ messages pop on on campus to tell them how racist they are

‘Dear White People’ messages pop on on campus to tell them how racist they are March 28, 2017

“Dear White People” messages appeared all over campus at North Carolina State University last week to inform white people that they alone are the racist ones.

Based on the 2014 movie of the same name, the “dear white people” messages are incredibly racist and hateful, as expected:

“Dear White People… Black people can’t be racist. Prejudice [sic], yes, but not racist. Racism describes a system of disadvantage based on race. Black people can’t be racist since we don’t stand to benefit from such a system.”

“Dear White People… There is no such thing as ‘colorblind.’ You are perpetuation racism and white supremacy.”

“Dear White People… Your silence equals compliance.”

“Dear White People… I am here to burst your post-racial bubble. Yes Oprah may have her own network, but Ann Coulter is still writing best sellers, Black kids are still getting shot for wearing hoodies, and even here the few vestiges of Black culture are under attack by conservative groups.”

“Dear White People… Are you tired of your hum drum, Wonderbread existence of accidental racism and wishing you could sip on Henny out yo crunk cup without a Bitch giving you the side-eye? Course you are.”

NCSU’s Union Activities Board put up the posters for “Diversity Education Week,” according to The Blaze. How’s this for diversity:

“Dear White People… in a stunning reversal using the term ‘African American’ is borderline racist now. It turns out if you’re too worried about political correctness… to say ‘black,’ odds are… you secretly just want to call us n****** anyway… and truth be told, I’d rather you just be honest about it.”

The only sign that was removed was one that asked, “Have you read the 13th Amendment?” Someone scribbled in pencil underneath something about reading the Second Amendment. Campus police considered that an indirect threat and removed it.

Dear New Fascists, you don’t get a free pass to spread hate just because you feel justified in your anger. You’re the problem.
