Prof: Not Acknowledging White Privilege Means You Believe in White Supremacy
In other words, not agreeing with progressives makes you a racist. That’s original.

PROF: ‘Those who deny white privilege functionally believe in white supremacy’
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Politically progressive academics love to rant, particularly when it comes to racial issues.
When they hear about alleged acts of racial insensitivity, they are sometimes quick to condemn the white devils and declare their campuses to be toxic cauldrons of racist sentiment.
Sometimes these professors even jump into the fray before they know all the facts, or consider the possibility that the incidents were created by anti-racist activists who needed something to spark a protest. That sort of thing has occurred on numerous campuses around the nation.
One such professor is Joseph Kuilema, who teaches social work at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
In November a scandal broke out at Calvin when several swastikas and the words “white power” were inscribed in the snow on several parked cars. The public has not been privy to the story behind the snow messages.
As DailyCaller.com wrote, “Two students confessed to the deeds, but their names, motivations and punishments haven’t been revealed, leaving open the possibility the stunt was a hoax or a poorly conceived prank rather than an act of hate.”
But that uncertainty didn’t deter Kuilema from declaring Calvin College a bubbling cauldron of racists who are in pathetic denial of their “white privilege.”
“What occurred was not an isolated incident, a freak occurrence in an otherwise loving and inclusive community,” Kuilema wrote in an editorial published by Chimes, the campus newspaper. “While few members of this community openly espouse white supremacy, many members of our community continue to deny white privilege. It must be clearly stated that those who deny white privilege functionally believe in white supremacy, whether they have the courage to write it on a car or not.
