What is the Right Way to be White? - 2 of 3

A project I did for my school's Undergraduate Research Opportunities Project (UROP). It concerns the lack of a cohesive white identity in this country and the problematic nature of whiteness. How does one be white without being racist? How does one "be" white at all? It consists of interviews with professors

I don't know how Europeans in America put up with the constant brainwashing.

what privileges i didn't receive any , white people cant experience racism that's so untrue i have been beaten as a child because i was a white i think minority have the privileges because you can get a scholarship simply for being black or other minority's what about poor whites there nothing for them at all ,  im a racist simply because i'm proud of my heritage and race ?

The race of the sun?

Hm.

[antoine tremblay]

White is the addition of all color. The race of the sun.

I respect all race, but god.. i would not change my race or my culture for all the gold in the world.

Defensive? about accusing me of working for the CIA without any evidence? Absolutely! You made the offensive attack didn't you? Deception is indirect violence. I have seen "white" people who had "non-white" wives, mistreat "non-white" people on the basis of color, before. How does having a "black" wife prove that you are not a Racist? How does your having a "black" wife make you NOT be an agent provocator? When did I blame my shortcomings on "white" people? SHOW ME THE EVIDENCE!

the problem though is that these idiots are creeping out into the world.

[blastingcaps]

ohhh a little defensive are we. Tell my black wife i am a racist, nit wit. I just made a comment that i find YOU deceptive and typical of an agent provocator. Everybody know about cointelpro. Big deal, you know how to use a search engine. I was hip to that dig before the internet was in use.

Anyway, its telling you have become so defensive. I am not suprised, your either a cop or just another confused black man trying to pin his own shortcomings on whitey. "counter" racism? haha! thats racist!

[SynQ]

A check from the CIA? So this is the tactic that the Racists(White Supremacists)are using against me, now? Some old kind of COINTELPRO type stuff you are attempting to put on me? Anyone who studies the tactics of COINTELPRO, can see right thru your deception, blastingcaps. You are displaying the characteristics of what I found out is called an AGENT PROVOCATOR, you spread lies and deceit through the movement. Remember, the tools of the Racists are DECEPTION and VIOLENCE.

[blastingcaps]

Thats not even what he said you fucking idiot.

[blastingcaps]

still pumpin that reaction huh? I am tryin to figure out when you check from the CIA is gunna stop and you will to.

hahaha
