An academic says we’re at a fork, as the nation’s goose seems cooked.
In October, I covered a Rutgers University professor’s thoughts on Critical Race Theory opposition.
As reported by The Root, “[A]Parents who are nigry and white [had] lashed out at school board meetings over the so-called taboo teaching.”
Brittney Cooper was able to pose a provocative question.
“[Can we]Legislate [racism] away and…march it away…or, do we think white people just always gonna be like this, and our job is to hold back their ability to do the most harm?”
To hear her tell it, CRT is simply “the proper teaching of American history.”
White supremacy was the lady’s mantra:
“[W]Hat [white people]What they did was create a theory of how the world works. And then they literally browbeat, enslaved, chained, shot, killed, drowned, raped…and essentially subjugated a whole planet to make their theory true. … They ain’t mad because Critical Race Theory is untrue. They mad because it’s true.”
Per the professor, “[W]hite people are committed to being villains in the aggregate.”
This is why a smart solution comes in:
“The thing I want to say to you is, ‘We gotta take these m—–f—–s out.’ But, like, we can’t say that, right? I don’t believe in a project of violence…our souls suffer from that.”
It’s been quite a while since, Kyle Rittenhouse is acquitted.
Brittney was on MSNBC Friday and had many more words to share.
As part of our “national reckoning,” she asserted, the verdict was about “which version of whiteness” the United States prefers:
“This is also white America’s reckoning with which version of whiteness is it going to choose. Is it going to choose to be in the legacy of the Confederacy, that is about oppressing people, or is it going to choose the whiteness that is in the legacy of the Union, which is about saying that there are principles greater than the idea that we get to subjugate people?”
And before you get confused over the pigment of parties involved, consider this:
“When folks say, ‘This can’t be about racism because the victims are white,’ no, there have always been white victims of white supremacy.”

As for which whiteness we want, the instructor’s question isn’t wholly untoward.
Looney Tunes recalled a talkative dog many decades ago.
These days, it’s a metaphor for politics in a sense.
Narrative is the final word in a sector; any conclusions are predetermined.
Let’s take, for instance, the climate change.
Since the beginning, every sign that Earth had heated up was considered global warming.
The planet then began to cool.
Expert analysis: This was due to global warming.
According to our understanding, the evidence that the world is becoming colder was just an indication of it being hotter.
In order words, “Woof.”
This is what appears to be the case for our white hot terror.
Amid headlines, one might be hard-pressed to find anything that isn’t “whiteness”:

Coca-Cola recently encouraged its employees to “be less white”:
- Reduce the oppressiveness
- Be less arrogant
- Be less certain
- Be less defensive
- Be less ignorant
- Do more for the humble
- Pay attention
- Believe
- Stop living in apathy
- Be free from white solidarity
Pernicious pale products were also ignored by the Smithsonian
- Rigid Individualism
- The nuclear family
- Objective Thinking
- Believe that hard work is key to your success
- Christianity is the norm
- Respect for authority
- Future planning
- You can delay your gratification
- Action orientation
- Decision-Making
- Being polite
The above definition of whiteness refers to both arrogance as respect, and also a lack in humility while still being polite.
If all things are whiteness then, I believe, everything is whiteness.
Whereas we once thought in terms of the world we want, we’re now told the whole world is whiteness.
For what kind of “whiteness,” then, do we wish?
Here’s the version I choose: a just world in which all are equal, virtue has value, Martin Luther King’s dream has been realized, and “whiteness” means nothing.
Unity is better than division. I value love over hate. Universal brotherhood and sisterhood are more important to me than identity groups.
The non-whiteness of whiteness is what I support. It is my hope that we can put this divisive thought to rest.
Meanwhile, as Brittney explained to MSNBC, those shot by Kyle Rittenhouse were “allies against this white supremacist assault on black life.”
A militant America’s message, as she divined:
“[W]e will kill anybody that gets in our way.”
“[T]oday, what we were told was that white self-defense trumps everybody else’s sense of safety and protection in the street,” she said of the jury’s decision. “Even when white folks are the folks carrying the gun and they are under no threat of all — as Kyle Rittenhouse admitted himself.”
Kenosha was the only place where white people could own guns.
Brittney’s takeaway:
“The law says that white relief is the thing that we should take away from this…and the rest of us get to think about whether it’s safe for us to go out and exercise our right to peacefully protest.”
The verdict, as it turns out, was white supremacy — a white guy was let off the hook.
Had he been found guilty, of course, white victims would’ve been vindicated.
Which color is more dangerous?
In the end, it seems, we must pick whatever best version of “whiteness” the left side of the aisle is offering — ideally, one that has nothing at all to do with whiteness.
So choose wisely — that goes for everyone, even well-known white supremacists:
