Speaking Of Education

Professor D. L. Stewart is the chair of the higher education department in the Morgridge College of Education at the University of Denver. In other words, he’s in charge of training the future generation of teachers and professors. 

That’s a truly disturbing thought given that one of his latest published works is entitled “Dead Honky,” taken from a 1975 Saturday Night Live skit. In his essay, Dr. Stewart calls for the “death of whiteness,” whatever that means.

Stewart suggests that “whiteness is itself a violence” because “in its emptiness, white refers to no ethnic group and defines itself only in reference to what it is not -- it is not Black, disabled, poor, trans, non-Christian.”

This is sheer lunacy!  And it is also raw racism.

University of Denver leaders should be demanding Stewart’s resignation. Alumni members should be withholding their support. Elected officials in Colorado should be threatening to cut funding to the university. 

America has a racism problem and it is growing more severe every day.  But it isn’t the white supremacy of the haters in the KKK. The racism that is gaining strength in America and has powerful allies is anti-white racism.

People in positions of power, like Professor Stewart, can say anything they want about white Americans and get away with it.  Instead of being resisted by our government leaders, our academic institutions and by Hollywood celebrities, this racism is being aided and abetted by them all.

Let me say this again: Judging a whole group of people on the basis of their skin color is legally forbidden and it is morally a sin. But the idea that the only people who commit that sin are Caucasians is a lie.
