RE: Students offered extra credit to determine their level of ‘white privilege’
No, you don't get to say No to History and Obvious Reality, No you don't get to Deny what is Elemental and bring doubt onto it without contention, but have your source, it's representative of your views after all, the irony is so saddening, you refuse to discuss the important and the obvious such as the lack of black culture, and the gross misrepresentation of it, the cultural crime that has been going on for generations, while it's equated to a Joke by the author of the article, ridiculed, specifically saying that culture means glue and paper/school supplies in the context of curriculum provided to attest to your people's place in the world.

It begins with History and echoes today.
Why did you link stuff about police when I asked for sources about good credit history and such being negated?
I gave sources for Good Credit History and such being negated in the very first comment where I linked Black Wall street commentary on yahoo answers. I repeatedly stated that my sources are Reality, as in people simply won't even give you a chance SIMPLY because of your skin color, and you cannot accept this because you want to verify it or validate it for yourself somehow and I don't know how you would do such a thing.
Go down to "Experiments" in the wikipedia Article about Employment Discrimination (here) and take note:
Then go through the rest of the article, and again like I advised Inform yourself about the nature of the subject because you cannot explain away racism, you cannot justify racism, and you cannot avoid the many examples of racism while attempting to negate one obvious facet of Systemic Discrimination, why else would I link stuff about Racism than to Drive Home the point that Racism is alive and well, it's never gone away and it's evident in numerous ways, from the treatment by cops, judges, employees, creditors, all the way to the shop owner.
Those wage studies are interesting. I might look into it more since I like researching things like this. Im pretty sure the gender gap is debunked but the race claims may hold more ground. Have you compared what guys like Ben Shapiro have said on these matters?
Interesting is a vague and empty word, it neither rebuts or affirms anything, it's vacuous language at it's best, as if some peak in your interest should matter on the topic of this discussion, or that I care what you find Interesting or it should peak my interest that you're interested.
Again why are you telling me this, as above, this is simply unsolicited information about your character as if that was ever the topic and the last person I'd listen to about your character would be the biased Idiot themselves.
Your certainty speaks volumes about your character, as does telling me what you think about something you're pretty sure about in contrast to something you more or less already made up your mind about and sought to Debunk (claiming that it's Confirmation Bias Guaranteed) but only ceded enough to remark as "may hold more ground". Your actions speak enough about your character: Demand Source while Dismissing the numerous salient points provided to sustain the statement you tried to cast doubt on and insinuate racism is bunk along with that I must be an idiot not to think as you, not once but twice.
Compared with who, you didn't finish your thought, and compared what for? What wisdom is there do glean from this comparison?
Had you tried to speak directly about what you know instead of Insinuating that you have a lick of a grasp on the subject with the above question, and this "implying" is your method thus far, and you continue to Insinuate the world with your rude demands and repeated loaded questions and Guarantees in lieu of simply delivering what you guarantee or speaking plainly and not slandering my character with "are you an Idiot" and "you must be an Idiot" indirect formulaic complex question fallacies seeking to justify racism.
The amount of hypocritical babble here is amazing. You say you don't care and have no interest debating idiots and yet you sit there typing page after page. Linking random wiki articles proves nothing. You have done no research all you did was quickly google a few sources and link them claiming they are the end all be all of the argument. Glad to hear you have such a firm grasp on the true meaning of interesting though.
You know what I meant by the ben shaprio question. You have either listened to his points on white privilege or you haven't. When I write the article I'll send it to you. Until then you can write me a few more paragraphs on the meaning of interesting.
On the topic of brown do you really find it so hard to believe that brown may have actually tried to attack that officer?
http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2016/06/27/key-takeaways-race-and-inequality/
These are just opinions.
I'll get back to you on the others.
And what is wrong with the fact that the studies are based on people's opinions? Is that not indicative of anything? Is there no value in those studies on the issue of Racism?
Why are you asking about ONE INDIVIDUAL and attempting to STEREOTYPE an entire group of people, because what other reason is there for such trite insinuation baited trap, clearly it's ONE INDIVIDUAL so what the fuck are you trying to say by asking me that question????
and continue asking me loaded questions like that again if you're curious to my answer, or dare say you never sought to insinuate no such thing because my loaded question somehow didn't exemplify what a moron you are by positing a video in the frame of" are you an IDIOT? can you not see this brown attacking this officer, you Idiot who thinks Racism didn't go away with MLK, you Reverse Racist you!"
Do you really believe that Systemic Racism doesn't exist, in edicts and mandates and unwritten acts, do you believe that a History of racism and the Present State of Black Culture and the lack of Representation of Black Culture in a perspective of Role in Civilization are not factors of Racism?
Do you seriously think that those opinions don't indicate anything about racism, and actually something severely important, you deny racism really exists and have no rebuttal to the misrepresentation of black culture and the atrocious Peonage that many black people have suffered for 100 years after the end of "Slavery" while being segregate, lynched and denied Civil Rights while being Subjugated to Racist Laws and there is no chance for you to resolve the How and Why do you think Racism went away, or isn't in the workplace, because firstly it's undeniable, fact of life, everyday the sun rises in the east, every day black people are Discriminated against by White People. This was history, this has changed from Legal Discrimination to Private Discrimination, this is Reality, this is My Source, but keep asking where's your source or dismissing things offhand without anything more than a one word explanation as if that could suffice for anything less than So what if it's just opinion, it's vastly important on the subject of race that we examine the opinions of people of how much racism has decreased and how much racism we still have, but so what, it's opinion.. Yeah. ok.. It was nice chatting with you until it was clear you take me to be an idiot.
lol I didnt notice these other replies till now. If you want to start breaking out the insults and ad hominems Im 100% game. Bro you are obviously way too emotionally attached to this topic calm down. I guarantee every study you cited had some sort of conformation bias or something. Do you really think its just a coincidence that Africa is one of the most fertile environments on the planet and yet Africans never advanced past the stone age without the help of Europeans?
I'll tell you what. When Im done with a few articles that Im working on I will do one on this topic and through the might of actual non bias facts I will destroy you. My other reply was meant to come off as non facetious for the sake of keeping the conversation civil but if its a battle you want that is what you will get. And yes I take you to be an idiot.
You are trolling me arent you? Either way I will write that article for the luls.
