Northwestern University Offers Divisive and Racially Charged Course Promoting Anti-White Agenda
According to Campus Reform, Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, a liberal suburb of Chicago, is offering a course next semester called “Unsettling Whiteness.”
Yet again, academia is promoting an anti-White agenda and insulting people purely based on their skin color.
“The course appears on a spring course list for the university’s Department of Black Studies. The brief description on the list states that the course will make “the historical, political, and cultural formation of whiteness in Western modernity visible and narratable for commentary and analysis.”
The course seems to imply that Whiteness has not been studied despite the fact that colleges across the country talk about, and criticize White culture
Yet again, just like many courses in The United States institutes of so-called higher education, whiteness is associated with White supremacy.
Who’s the professor teaching this race-baiting? His name is Barnor Hesse, the Department’s Director of Undergraduate Studies and an Associate Professor of Black Studies, Political Science, and Sociology.
Hesse’s bio reads, “Barnor Hesse is a political and critical theorist concerned with decolonial questions of colonial-racial modernity, the western political, and Black politics in the lives, conceptualizations and formations of the Black Diaspora. He is an Associate Professor of Black Studies, Political Science and Sociology. He obtained his PhD in Government (Ideology and Discourse Analysis) from the University of Essex (United Kingdom).”
His research interests include “Black Political Thought,” “Political Theory,” “Black Critical Theory,” “Critical Race Studies,” “Black Affect Studies,” “Decolonial Studies,” and “Black Conceptual Methodologies.”
Hesse’s academic work includes explaining the ‘8 identities of White people.’
“There is a regime of whiteness, and there are action-oriented white identities. People who identify with whiteness are one of these. It’s about time we build an ethnography of whiteness, since white people have been the ones writing about and governing Others.”
White Supremacist: Preserves, names, and values white superiority
White Voyeurism: Would not challenge a white supremacist; desires non-whiteness because it is interesting, pleasurable; seeks to control the consumption and appropriation of non-whiteness; fascination with culture
White Privilege: May critique white supremacy, but maintains a deep investment in questions of fairness/equality under the normalization of whiteness and white rule; sworn goal of ‘diversity’
White Benefit: Sympathetic to a set of issues but only privately. Will not speak/act in solidarity publicly, because they are benefitting through whiteness in public
White Confessional: Some exposure of whiteness takes place, but as a way of being accountable to People of Colour after; seek validation from People of Color
White Critical: Take on board critiques of whiteness and invest in exposing/marking the white regime; refuses to be complicit with the regime; whiteness speaking back to whiteness
White Traitor: Actively refuses complicity; names what is going on; intention is to subvert white authority and tell the truth at whatever cost; need them to dismantle institutions
White Abolitionist: Changes institutions; dismantling whiteness, and not allowing whiteness to reassert itself
Hesse’s career seems to be based on division and race-baiting.
Sadly, there are many like him in academia who seek to divide students and blame them for things they have no control over and far too many American universities have ceased to be places of higher education and instead became centers of propaganda and brainwashing.
