The Symptoms of the Dreaded Whiteness
Warning. Some may find very stupid content offensive.
Objectivity, a strong work ethic, individualism, respect for the written word, perfectionism, and promptness: would any society discourage such virtues? Would every parent encourage the development of these traits in their children? Do such characteristics facilitate success or, at least, survival In this hostile world?
Your first response would be wrong.
These characteristics are among the “white norms” that diversity and social-justice theory seek to deconstruct. These are appearing as targets to attack in schools and workshops as these malignant qualities are being run to ground.
The National Museum of African American History & Culture wants to make you aware of certain signs of whiteness: Individualism, hard work, objectivity, the nuclear family, progress, respect for authority, delayed gratification, and more.
