Re: Great news! Students wear white pins to remind them of white privile
This patronising, condescending gesture BS annoys me.
If privileged white people want to acknowledge and do something about their inherent privilege a damn pin isn't going to make things better. What will improve matters is for them to move into black neighbourhoods when they finally get a new home, or ensure that they make their existing neighbourhoods as open and accessible to black people as possible. Sending their kids to mixed schools, so preferably public rather than private schools, and non-exclusive colleges, and ensuring opening access to professional positions at work, will do a lot more for black people than a frickin badge.
But like a typical rich white lib, these people want to ease their guilt and feel like heroes, whilst living in exclusively white communities, sending their kids to exclusively white schools and colleges, working in exclusively white professions, and mixing with exclusively white social groups.

Incidentally, what colour are you? If white, you have made a point of moving into the hood, right?
Actually, Haarlem is very popular with liberal yuppies these days, I hear..
Sending their kids to mixed schools,
cool gestureget your hapless kids fkd up 3 times a day to show your cred as a high-ranking SJW..I would strongly commend this to SJWs with offspring, actually..for the sheer comedic dividend
sending their kids to exclusively white schools and colleges,
probably half of them will be Indians and Slants now, actually..

I kind of get the impression that you are a "Mad Men " fan, or that you have maybe been binging on 'My Three sons" boxsets..
Re: Great news! Students wear white pins to remind them of white privile
I live in the UK, but I have always attended mixed comprehensive schools and colleges, and lived in mixed neighbourhoods. My neighbours have been a mix of white, black, and Indian/Pakistan. Unfortunately, my professional is dominated by white upper-middle-class types, rather than people from ethnic minority and working-class backgrounds. That said, I've had various black and other ethnic minority bosses.

Re: Great news! Students wear white pins to remind them of white privile
I never said my profession was all white. And bear in mind that some of my past jobs were in positions outside my current profession. But the UK legal sector is predominantly white and upper-class, particularly in higher positions.
As for the second point, can you advise me why I've supposedly contradicted myself?

what would you say the % mix is ?
Re: Great news! Students wear white pins to remind them of white privile
I don't have the figures offhand. They exist but I'm too lazy to do a search on my tablet at the moment. But from personal experience I'd say that most top legal professions (i.e. barristers, judges, and corporate solicitors) are 90% upper-middle-class white. The other 10% is made up of people from working-class and/or ethnic minority backgrounds.

Sending their kids to mixed schools,
It would never see the light of day, but I was thinking of making an independent movie called "White Privilege." I'd send two WASPY kids, a boy and a girl, to a primarily black High School, in a poor area, and film what happens to them over a semester with a fish eye camera.
You predicted the outcome above.

Re: Great news! Students wear white pins to remind them of white privile
Great reality show..
I want to see what happens next, as in how SJWs parents process it and respond to it, when kids seem to keep coming home all torn up and bleeding.
I saw it happen on an ebay message board years back, actually..some particularly stupid left-wing bitch, "terroxyboy" I think was her nick, had begun noticing that her kids were getting stomped at school so regularly you could begin setting your watch to it.
She was bewildered and came to the boards to complain and seek advice and counselling.
She named the school or it's location at least. Rather quite a black/brown hood.
Lots of Polynesian and Middle-eastern.
Neither is good, in that context.Both in combination are just mind-boggling.
When it was gently suggested that she was a silly Moo for sending her kids to a black school -some even asked playfully if she was trying to get rid of her kids maybe she launched into a nasty abusive tirade about nasty racists on the board.
Well..SHE is the one moaning her kids are getting torn up, lol..And she has NO idea why, and completely rejects the connection, lol..

Re: Great news! Students wear white pins to remind them of white privile
I went to a predominately black public high school, in the early to mid 2000s. I never faced any sort of anti-white racism when I was there, and I am fairly waspy, in that I never pretended to be interested in rap, or anything else that was popular in black culture.
I really don't think it would have the outcome you predict.

Do you think that would still be the case in the current political climate?
It would be a feel good story if nothing happened to them and they made friends.
It would destroy the preconceived notions of many, including my own.

yeah, I was thinking that I'd just like more information re this particular black school.
Re: Great news! Students wear white pins to remind them of white privile
I'm not sure, but it was a different story at the predominately white college(s) I went to. The black college students segregated themselves, had scowls on their faces all the time, and had an especially big chip on their shoulders. In high school, they were the clear majority (easily over 90%), and I was not mistreated, nor did I witness any mistreatment.
Re: Great news! Students wear white pins to remind them of white privile
yeah, this:
is not the same as your characterisation of your own surroundings,"mixed neighborhood" when I challenged you on it.
What will improve matters is for them to move into black neighbourhoods when they finally get a new home,

Re: Great news! Students wear white pins to remind them of white privile
it is pretty hilarious, isn't it?
and when I put it to him to lead the way on itgreat, where do you live, you go live in the fkn hood
he describes his surrounds as a 'mixed neighborhood"which is virtually meaningless in today's environment..
then plays dumb when I suggest that that he ducked.
Then he suggests that white collar workplaces are too white, that whites seem over-represented at the office.
He lives in what I still assume to be, a white majority country.
But, considering all of this, we should all wear bits of jigsaw puzzle and go live in SC LA, or something.
No wonder Brexit, and no wonder Trump and probably next Le Pen or Wilders, seriously..

Yeah, I don't buy this you're either for or against argument. Basically it says not taking actions to stop Y, are actions in favor of supporting X. The problem here is, then any issue works that way. I mean, what have you done to stop illegal sex trafficking? Nothing, oh then clearly you are for illegal sex trafficking
It's *beep*. Here in america, I don't have to do *beep*. Telling me I do, is antithetical to the entire point of a free society

Most women of color are progressive like the dear Devon Aoki in my avatar and they are by far better-looking than white women. White men, like her equally good-looking husband, think so as well.

Great news! Students wear white pins to remind them of white privilege
The campaign was launched over the weekend by the Elizabethtown College Democrats, who say it aims to make students at the small and private liberal arts college in Pennsylvania more introspective about issues of race, especially in their predominantly white region of Lancaster County.
Discussions about race are often perceived as being only open to people of color, but I think it is just as important for white people to partake in conversations about race, Aileen Ida, president of the College Democrats, told The College Fix via email.
Ida said white people are continually allowing for a societal system of oppression to occur unless they work against it. The white puzzle piece pin represents racial struggles of all sorts.
No matter how accepting someone is, that doesnt stop them from being part of a system based on centuries of inequality, she said, adding the campaign transcends politics.
