Racist incident revealed to be a hoax; University of Chicago shrugs [Darleen Click]

Because the political agenda behind the hoax is something they embrace. A University of Chicago student who claimed his Facebook page was hacked and filled with racist and violent messages against him and another student has now admitted he faked the attack. Intended to shame the school into making drastic changes around race and speech on campus, the hoax appears to have worked. The students behind the ruse, the hoodwinked

#Ferguson — Identifying the media invested in a racist agenda [Darleen Click]

Ta-Nehisi Coates, Reparations and a Reprise: Sins of the father [Darleen Click]

William Jacobson reads Ta-Nehisi Coates’ 15,000 word salad in The Atlantic, “The Case for Reparations” so you don’t have to. It’s looooong, which gives it a perceived weight which just is not there. In fact, there’s not much new there, except for historical anecdotes shedding detail but not light on what we already knew to be the history of slavery, segregation and discrimination […] And that’s ultimately the problem with

My pallid pallor does not smell like privilege [Darleen Click]

Ah the irony of the anti-theist Left who insist that only some people, regardless of behavior, carry the mark of Original Sin by being “white” For four days this week (March 26-29), thousands of white people are getting together in downtown Madison, Wis. to talk about how guilty they feel about the color of their skin. The self-flagellation conclave is called the White Privilege Conference. A sea of 2,500 (mostly)

More Leftist Tolerance: “That space is not for white people. That space is for people of color.”

You just don’t belong, honky OLYMPIA, Wash. — An attempt to fight racism at a community college may have backfired. A group of employees at South Puget Sound Community College sent out an invitation to all 300 staffers. The “Staff, Faculty and Administrators of Color” encouraged employees to reply to the invitation to find out the confidential date and time of what was being called a “happy hour” to “build

Well, there goes the neighborhood! [Darleen Click]

Don’t you just feel for Spike Lee? Spike Lee had some harsh words for whites moving into predominantly black neighborhoods in New York City while speaking at a Black History Month lecture at Pratt Institute on Tuesday. As 1010 WINS’ Carol D’Auria reported Wednesday, the director and Brooklyn native said that white newcomers to neighborhoods like Fort Greene and Bedford-Stuyvesant are doing the wrong things. Lee told the audience that

Obama: “If you don’t like me, it’s because you’re RAAAAACIST.” [Darleen Click]

Really, Narcissist in Chief is finally being transparent on his own feelings. President Barack Obama said that racial tensions may have softened his popularity among white voters within the last two years, according to a story posted on the New Yorker magazine’s website today. “There’s no doubt that there’s some folks who just really dislike me because they don’t like the idea of a black president,” Obama said in the

The inauthentic children of Republicans [Darleen Click]

The attacks on Trig Palin were legion. The Bush twins were gossip and mocking fodder in ways Heiress Clinton never was. Just as women, minorities and gays who identify as Republicans or Conservatives somehow stop being real, so even their children stop being, well, children. On MSNBC’s Melissa Harris-Perry on Sunday, the panel was discussing several topics of the “of the year” variety. In the below clip, panelists are shown

Obama’s Racist Department of Justice finally takes notice of “Knockout game” [Darleen Click]

First Federal “hate crime” charges brought in case where white male is perp and victim is black The Obama administration announced on Tuesday that it will finally be prosecuting one of these “Knockout Game” assaults as a hate crime, not because the black mobs savagely lynching these helpless white victims are unmistakably racially motivated, but because a white person finally perpetrated one against a black man. As reported by the

“The Great Oberlin College Racism Hoax of 2013” [Darleen Click]

William Jacobson has details. A massive racism hoax took place at Oberlin College in February 2013 in which two students made seemingly racist, anti-Semitic and other such posters, graffiti and emails for the purpose of getting a reaction on campus, not because they believed the hostile messages. At least one of the two was an Obama supporter with strong progressive, anti-racist politics. School officials and local police knew the identity
