Exhibitions of
Anti-White feelings on campuses today are coming too quickly to keep track of.
I’ve only covered a fraction of them in my blog, but one of the more recent
displays of racism, explicitly anti-white racism, stuns with all the
implications.
“Now I am become white, the destroyer of
worlds.”
When I
think of all the white people I have ever encountered…there is perhaps only a
dozen I would consider “decent.”
The whole essay is
like the above, just a toxic swirl of ignorance, hatred, and confusion. There
have been all sorts of protests about this essay, all quite justified…maybe
this country is finally waking up to the fact that the level of hatred against
white people is simply ridiculous. Some guy writing a stupid essay is no big
deal, really, as there are lots and lots of stupid people in the world who
think stupid things, and they are certainly entitled to their opinions, no
matter how stupid.
So I’m not going
to jump on the bandwagon and take easy shots at the essay, because that’s not
the issue—it doesn’t matter how much we scream and protest, there will be
people like this. Let me address the real troubling issues here:
First, this was
published in the student paper at a university. These papers are nominally run
by students, but also have administrative
commissars overseeing them, ensuring that wrong-think is never published. In
order for this hate-filled essay to get published in the paper, it had to have
been reviewed by the editorial staff, as well as the administrative commissar.
They read this essay of hate, an essay offensive to their readers (this is a
Texas school, lots of white people there) and saw no reason not to publish it.
The staff and administrators
at this school approve of this level of hatred for white people. This is
perhaps the most important take-away from the publication of this essay: lots
of people now hate white people, and they are at least in control of the
student paper on this campus. It’s reasonable to wonder how many other places
they also control.
On the face of it,
we need to be very concerned that this sort of hate is now mainstream enough to
make a university paper. The next issue is a bit more subtle, and you need to
look at things from the author’s perspective:
Martinez
says he grew up in Miami and for the first two decades of his life he never had
any interaction with white people.
To the best of my
understanding, whites are the majority race in this country, but now it’s quite
possible for a person to literally grow up in this country, to spend 20 years
here, and have no interaction with white
people.
The mainstream
media doesn’t discuss “no go” zones, so allow me to risk patronizing my readers
with a short description. No go zones are places where the “usual” citizens
cannot go, for fear of their life, where even local law enforcement fears to
tread. I’m not talking about strongly ethnic neighborhoods like Little China or
such, but actual places where the immigrants have basically declared their own
sovereignty. It’s easy to look in horror at European countries which now have
dozens of such zones where the Europeans do not dare go, but obviously we have
places in this country now which are so insulated from American culture, a
predominantly white culture, that you can raise your children without any
concern they might actually interact with a white person.
Many countries
have strict immigration policies that forbid the changing of demographics. I’m
not just talking about famously xenophobic countries like Japan (and I’m not
criticizing them in any way), even Mexico has it hard-written into their laws
that they cannot change the demographics of their country.
We really should
start asking some questions about whether it’s a good idea to continue these
sorts of immigration policies. The fact that we now have a sufficiently large
immigrant population that they can raise their children here without risk of
“exposing” them to our native culture is troubling.
The fact that
these children can be raised with such a visceral hatred of white people, of
the people who let these children be raised in this country, is terrifying.
Maybe our immigration policies are fine (maybe, I have my doubts), but we
absolutely need to ask ourselves how these kids are growing up to hate, hate,
hate white people so much.
This leads to the
third issue raised by this essay.
Martinez stands behind his article. “Let’s
leave the racist attacks out of this. I don’t think my piece is racist at all.
I don’t think colored people can be racist,…
--this level of hypocrisy doesn’t happen in a
vacuum. He was trained to think like
this. Where? Maybe in an education system where anyone who says such things
about “brown” people will be punished severely, while saying such things about
white people is generally rewarded in our education system?
These kids learn
to hate in our school system, which clearly spends far too much time teaching
these kids to hate, teaching an ideology filled with hypocrisy instead of
educating. By extension, we also need to look at our higher education system,
which clearly is both filled with people trained to hate whites, and sees no
problem with spreading and furthering this message of hate.
So while many
sites covering this essay are taking the easy route and just pointing at how
sad and embarrassing it is for that Texas university to publish such an atrocious essay, we really
need to understand the implications here. We now live in a system which allows
such a pestilent form of racism to be casually inflicted upon the public.
