"My book took ten years to write. I conceived it on my first visit to North Korea. I went back five times over a decade. I wrote op-eds and investigative journalism pieces on the subject. I got a Fulbright specifically to be in South Korea where I could do research. I got funding from Guggenheim, the Soros Foundation, and went to Laos, Thailand, and China to interview defectors. I already had a book contract when I went to North Korea for six months, where I went undercover posing as an ESL teacher and evangelical Christian. But when the book came out it was packaged as a memoir. If I were white and male, it would never have been packaged as a memoir. If a white person does it, it’s literary journalism. If a person of color writes, it’s a memoir. The minute they decided to market it as a memoir, other things happened that I didn’t expect. Readers thought it was about returning home. People thought I was a schoolteacher who had sold out my students. Tons of reviews came out, mostly focused on my deception. If I were accepted as a journalist, then the story would be different: I went undercover with a noble purpose, to discover truth."

How white people distort words related to morality to mask or justify their own immorality: Featuring Richard Wright's works as evidence
How white people distort words related to morality to mask or justify their own immorality: Featuring Richard Wright’s works as evidence
Richard Wright is and was proclaimed by many as one of the greatest American writers. He shocked America with his novel Native Son, his autobiography Black Boy, and his posthumous novel Lawd Today! to name a few. Wright wrote about what he knew to be true—that the oppression of black people in America has been institutionalized to serve the desires and needs of white people, and white people…

Stopwhitepeople2k16 and why it’s not that big of a deal
Okay so at this point I guess the SUNY Binghamton’s totally optional RA Program that’s designed by students and is not an actual class has gone viral. There’s a lot to unpack here: First, calling a program that’s supposed to promote racial harmony “Stop White People” reeks of a bad idea and the concept of allowing undergrads to design anything also reeks of a bad idea. But if you want actual commentary on that side of the subject, I suggest you go to “Stop Making Liberals Look Bad” to get their take on it.
On this blog, we’ll address the creepy and very goofy way that some people in the Conservative blogosphere react to stuff like this. Here are actual Facebook posts on the subject:
“ Have you seen the stop white people class at Binghamton University? ? Who do we sue for raciisiom or prosecute for intentionally threatening a group of people? This should not go unnoticed, it's a left -wing attack on white people! Now imagine if it was stop black people class! This has gone to far, get ready my fellow race, we are under attack!”
“ BINHAMTON UNIVERSITY: INSTITUTION TO OFFER " STOP WHITE PEOPLE COURSE" 80% OF ALL AMERICAN DEATHS ARE EVIL WHITE GUILT FOLKS? ONE MILLION EVIL WHITE GUILT FOLKS ARE FALLING VICTIM TO BLACK AND MINORITY PRIORITY CRIMES HOURLY, DAILY, WEEKLY, MONTHLY, YEARLY, ANNUALLY FOR OVER 52 CIVIL RIGHTS BUT NOT FOR WHITES YEARS NOW? WE DO EVERYTHING THE OPPOSITE WAY OF NORMAL LEGAL, MORAL TRADITIONAL ARYAN AMERICAN PEOPLES MORAL LAW AND ORDER WAY OF LIFE TODAY....THE QUESTION IS WHO THE HELL DOES WE MEAN ANYWAY? YES THERE IS A NORMAL RIGHT WAY AND THEN THERE IS A UNNORMAL WRONG WAY - IT JUST DON'T WORK TRYING TO PLAY IT BOTH WAYS ....Amen.”
“ as this has now proven to be acceptable, I will be lobbying for a class here in Williamsport to "stop black people" since we see so many criminals listed as from Philly.
gee, sounds a lot worse when I say it, doesn't it?”
“ A lot of us "uneducated people" have no regard for what you "educated" folk call a higher education. It's not difficult for me to understand how something like this got into the schedule at a SUNY school; state sponsored racism is right up this governors alley. The fact that it is in the curriculum at Binghamton SUNY, again no surprise. What is alarming to me is that there are supposedly "educated people" who believe in this sort of crap. I'm guessing these are folk who have never held a shovel or sledge hammer and never would since it is below them. Here's a little news flash for you little pumpkins; the only thing below you is whale shit. Society has somehow placed a precedent on what the thoughts of academia are. Those days are beginning to come to an end. We are starting to see what the end game is and we do not like it. Take your manufactured indignation, your PC bullshit, and your so called sophistication and go hide in your safe place. The rest of us will just keep plodding along ignorant of the Utopia you have promised for years and never delivered.”
Seems like a huge reaction for something which, frankly, like twenty people are going to attend and is not an actual course taught by a professor. There seems to be a on going thing in Conservative circles about Reverse Racism, which does not exist. Reverse Racism is a made up concept.
Racism, where people of all skin colors can allow hatred into their hearts and feel anger at another race, that is very real. Black people can be racist, Asians can be racist, everybody can be racist and it’s not something you can fight with anger. If the situation was reversed would people be angry about that? Yeah, maybe there’s a point to that and I’m willing to accept the idea that in the never ending liberal dark forest of social justice, there are more than a few people who hit that mark of “I really do hate white people”.
But are you seriously going to tell me that the correct reaction to this news is some insane levels of rage at the idea of a course, not an official course, taught by not an official instructor is worthy of calling people as low as “whale shit”? Like this is the reaction of the kind of person who just found out their kid got molested and you’re using it to protest the equivalence of a 2 hour seminar with a bad title? Come on. I’m particularly mystified by the idea of the uneducated guy who has “no regard” for higher education. You’re telling me you don’t want your kids to be doctors or lawyers or heads of major corporations? You see no value at all in the idea of post graduate education and it’s benefits? This, right here, is the thing that tears up a seven hundred year old march to scientific supported enlightenment in your eyes?
Look, take a deep breath, step away from the computer and think: maybe American civilization isn’t about to end just because somebody has a goofy opinion about race that’s being expressed through a hashtag. Is it just barely possible that the best way to defeat “Reverse Racism” (which is not a thing, stop making it a thing) is to NOT let it bother you?
There’s another side of this too: the concept of getting pushed into anger.
In professional wrestling, which I frigging love by the way, they have this thing called a “Work” where something really bad happens to the “Babyface” or hero and then the “Marks” (people who believe wrestling is real) get “worked up” or angry and start booing. The wrestlers want you to boo because that means you’ve been fooled. You’ve been “Worked”
I have a sneaking suspicion that’s what this is, that this is a group of students (and that’s who created the program) gave this thing a provocative title to get people mad. I suspect that someone in authority allowed them to name this class in this manner so people could attend the class all worked up and then get shown some sort of lesson or something and in the end...y’all got worked. You became marks for a work. Now you’re booing and I suspect that’s what they want. They want Conservative outage and thus make you look like fools. That’s...kind of brilliant actually but also kind of sad. Sad that we have become so predictable as a culture that people can shout into an echo chamber and get anger and rage so quickly. You are angry and thus they got what they wanted. Tomorrow Milos Yiannopoulos or Steven Crowder will pull a stunt and the outrage will continue, this time on the other side and the cycle will begin anew. Isn’t that the really objectionable part about this whole thing? Not that this class exists because stuff like this always exists, it’s that you’re so angry about it. You’re so enraged that you’re shouting in all caps about the glory of the white race or some nonsense. Basically this is what SJWs want from Conservatives and this is literally what you’re giving them.
So here’s a question: how does being angry about this make you feel better?

Maybe I have a soft skin, idk. But everyday I am reminded that white people can say whatever they want. Since day one in the Marines, every white person who I have encountered has constantly acted like they have never seen an Asian person in their lives. They constantly remind me they love Chinese food, like that's supposed to justify for their racist comments that Ive been hearing every single day since I was born. Today, I was reminded that today is the anniversary of the Hiroshima atomic bombing. How did I know that? They said it to me like it's my birthday. "Hey man! Happy Hiroshima day!" At first it was okay whatever. Then they just kept going on. I sat on my phone because I was getting a little irritated. Then everyone said, "hey whatchu watching? Highlights of the Hiroshima bombing?" Everyday that I'm in, everyone seems to throw an Asian joke at me like I'm supposed to just sit there and laugh with them laughing at me for being Asian. I've tried to reason with it, but I just can't even anymore with white people's ignorance.
