The Pathology of White Privilege

This is VERY Thought Provoking.

Challenging Media reports "From the DVD:The Pathology of PrivilegeRacism, White Denial & the Costs of InequalityFor years, acclaimed author and speaker Tim Wise has been electrifying audiences on the college lecture circuit with his deeply personal take on whiteness and white privilege. In this spellbinding lecture, the author of White Like Me: Reflections on Race from a Privileged Son offers a unique, inside-out view of race and racism in America. Expertly overcoming the defensiveness that often surrounds these issues, Wise provides a non-confrontational explanation of white privilege and the damage it does not only to people of color, but to white people as well. This is an invaluable classroom resource: an ideal introduction to the social construction of racial identities, and a critical new tool for exploring the often invoked - but seldom explained - concept of white privilege.

  • Western Civilization will forever prevail over lesser cultures. 400 years from now, people will be listening to Mozart and not Lil' Wayne. Western culture (white civilization) has produced massive results, progress and advancements for all peoples. Africans have never progressed beyond mud huts without borrowing from western technology. There is a very strong reason that these people have been oppressed by smarter and better civilizations than our own.

  • sooooooo trueeee!!! man white people just don't understand haha

  • Man this guy is hitting the nail right on the head....and the worst part about the whole thing is how easily we deny it all....like it frees us from it automatically.

  • @ramindsr ....but white people...hell no. They are sorry as hell. They think they are too good to really do some work. They think they are intitled to give orders they wouldnt follow. They just put off the attractive image they have but they are sorry as shit on the inside.

  • @NubianRockerChick The worst part about it is there are decent white people out there who would be disgusted if they knew how it really was....I recently stopped being a racist completely about five years ago. I am a cook and a server for a living and the best people I have ever worked with are black or latino....I have never realyl worked with asians but the blacks and mexicans I worked with worked hard and we all helped eachother out...and great great character.

  • @ibthere4ibs *slow, gradually increasing applause*

  • @DivinelyMochaDipped - I have a better source than google. 90% of my friends and inlaws are first generation and immigrant Chinese. You can read what ever propaganda you want. I know the truth because I live with them.

  • LMFAO @ the Elvis comparison

  • @anywayokay

    google "asian immigration and the model minority myth" much research will shed light on your preconceived notions. even "good" stereotypes are bad
