CALLING SOMEONE WHITE IS HATE SPEECH

 CALLING SOMEONE WHITE IS HATE SPEECH

Like most Americans I am flummoxed about who are these “white” people? Most citizens of the United States have arrived from countries all over the world. Most of these people do not identify as white but Spanish, Chinese, Swedish, or something else.  In 1861 the population in America was 31.4 million. Comparatively speaking there were fewer white and black Americans that experienced the Civil War as compared to our present population of 350 million. Immigrants from all over the world flooded Ellis Island to experience the freedom of life in the USA. 

 

Most of these immigrants worked themselves up the socio-economic ladder. Some arrived even before our colonies were formed. Many immigrants from northern Europe came through the process of indentured servitude who had to pay for being sponsored for their trip here. The Irish influx of the 1850s was greeted with ”No Micks Wanted” in store fronts. The over 6 million Italian immigrants, from the 1880s to 1910, were screened and many were rejected due to physical defects, illness and some being considered black. There was no government assistance or housing. Many Italians and other immigrants lived in two room flats with as many as 16 other compatriots. The immigrants continued to arrive from Africa, Asia, Europe, the Virgin Islands and throughout the globe. Most of them arrived with no social or economic power. 

 

Almost all of the immigrants who entered the US knew that they were not elites. Recent immigrants viewed themselves as people from their country of origin. Jamaican-Americans, Polish-Americans and so on were not considered “white”. Some had their ethnic or religious background attached to American such as Jewish-American or Arab-American. 

 

Are all of these elites, white or are there elites from other races? How many years does a family have to be in the United States before they are put in this elite class status? Are all the people who check the box for “white” on the census form automatically privileged? 

 

Government schools are using a semi-circular chart with eight identity choices: 1 white supremacist 2 white voyeurism 3 white privilege 4 white benefit 5 white confessional 6 white critical 7 white traitor 8 white abolitionist. The students are required to choose one of these obnoxious white identities to demonstrate their “supremacy.” Furthermore, the author of this classification chart, Barnor Hesse, stated, “It’s time we built an ethnography of whiteness since white people are the ones writing about and governing Others.” Most whites identify as Americans not white.

 

In government schools, grandchildren or great grandchildren of white families who came from Europe are being taught that they are white and should feel guilty for what their ancestors did to blacks and other minorities. These “white children” are often from families who suffered from discrimination and poverty themselves but are supposed to be the culprits of exploiting the current identified downtrodden people. Most of them had no family members here before or during the Civil War. Are these citizens perpetrators of discrimination or victims of social class repression? 

 

Slavery was a horrible practice, not only in colonial times but all over the globe. The USA ended slavery a short time after Jamaica freed the slaves in 1833. Many European immigrants themselves were exploited during the Industrial Revolution of the 1800 and 1900s. The ancestors of these abused immigrants often have no knowledge of the hardships they suffered. This summer these innocent youngsters witnessed the tearing down of businesses in their urban centers by many university students, Antifa anarchists and Black Lives Matter groups as payback for all the abuses they received at the hands of these white privileged people. Their ancestors had little power to do this.

 

In our public schools youngsters of hard-working parents who sacrificed to earn what they have accomplished are being indoctrinated that they are guilty of white supremacy because they are white. Citizens of the United States have the right to know the specifics of what is “white supremacy.” If there is no reasonable explanation of what it means to be white, then we should stop crucifying our children for nothing they or their ancestors have done.

It is not possible to be proud of being white because if you try to be proud of being white you are guilty of white supremacy. This appears to be a strategy that divides and weaken our nation to accept the inherent evil of socialist-communist ideology so let us expose it for what it is. We should no longer allow the false negatives to appear on the news and social media without questioning its accuracy and validity. 

 

US citizens have to stand up to combat the ridiculous labels and fabrications told as truth as it is destroying the moral fiber that unites us all in the greatest free nation of the world. Teaching all whites are guilty of white supremacy in our corporate world through affirmative action training and in our government school classrooms is nothing more than hate speech against whites. It must end.
