White Racism Class in FL.

A Florida professor teaching a "White Racism" course designed to show "the U.S. has been and remains a white supremacist society” will have his classroom guarded by two police officers as his students meet for the first time Tuesday, the university has revealed.
Can we call the class black racism instead?

I only have one question, why do we need a class in it? I thought the point was to ignore skin color and judge people on actions?

Only whites are encouraged to do that.

Look at the bright side, they done fucked up.
By specifying “white” racism they indirectly acknowledge that there are other, non-white racism(s).
Which ... directly contradicts their ridiculous tenet that only whites can be racist.

It’s almost like the entire boondoggle is run by low info race baiting charlatans, or something.

That's the position almost every postcolonial, post structural, critical theory, etc. etc. "college course" comes from. It also of course dominates the curriculum of every hyphenated studies class. Women's Studies, African-American Studies, Native-American Studies...

I.e. fake academic programs for people who couldn't otherwise cut it in college.

If only you would have had that opportunity you could have really weaponized your privilege in Gaynesville. Jorts, check; wife-beater, check; white privilege; CHECK.

The proper attire consists of cargo shorts and polo shirt. Either that or an Adidas track suit and sunglasses. It depends whether you are a northerner or southerner. You can't really mix it up.
