"I, an ethnic minority woman, cannot be racist or sexist towards white men"

Racism and institutionalized racism are not the same thing. It doesn't take much brainpower to understand the difference.

And I would then ask her this: according to your logic, would you say it's true that women can't be discriminated against in schools? Because women are the ones largely in power at our schools. No more articles about girls being discriminated against in our schools I guess.

She is clearly white. Anyone walking by her on the street is seeing a white woman. This is a great example of how this new brand of social justice really cling to being a victim, and hold that as something to be valued. If you are a big enough victim you, you can not offend anyone with your actions for some reason.

What is ironic about this video is that she has an actually minority woman holding her microphone through the entire speech, who doesn't seem too happy at the end walking away. It's weird stuff.

Step 1: Be racist and sexist.

Step 2: Claim to be a victim of racism and sexism when people criticize you.

Step 3: ????

Step 4: Profit.

For something that isn't about her, she talks about herself a lot.

"Your silence is violence"

Uh no. Inaction isn't violence.

And then she claims any time a woman is mistreated it's due to their gender.

The entire world is a safe space for white men? Maybe to a privileged eurocentric person whose never stepped into the real world and confuses academia for it.

This...this is perpetual victimhood. This isn't empowerment. This is children grasping the dark for purpose and being trained to think feelings are reality.

Minority men cannot commit rape since rape is privilege + power. And don't expect me to ever step it or give a shit when they're not committing rape.

The more these bitches open their air holes, the less of a shit I give.

Unscientific or pseudo-scientific majors keep attracting these kind of people to universities, the kind of people that do not belong in a university. As long as these people get a very large bias towards getting grants universities will favour non-scientific courses more and more over courses that actually help society and it's people.

Crazy Arab woman tries to one-up her female counterparts to shake off stigma of Arab culture and to fit in?

NOPE.

Remind me not to take her as a 4th wife, ok folks?

what always bothers me with social justice is there seems to be mainly two types of people, 1) people who understand why social justice is necessary and the cost and burden of the principles and 2) moronic idiots who simply wish to be an activist because they think its "cool" and makes them a social hero.

if you are 1) you understand that inequality and oppression is entirely context driven and that there is no univeral rule, and the reason racism or sexism is so abhorent is that its fundamentally unfair to predujice an individual simply by virtue of the group he belongs where that group is outside his control and is unjustified.

i.e its not sexist or discriminatory to have testicular cancer checks for only men and not transgender women who became men.

it is sexist to penalise a man because of the action or behaviours or status of other men which he holds no influence or link with.

e.g if every teacher in the world was a women every teaching job should still be equally considered to be a man or a woman, since to the individual applying for the job its unfair that she loses consideration because other women who she holds no link or influence to are in teaching positions.

I'm white, Northern Irish Catholic, and she wants to lecture ME about obsession?

The Guildford 4, the Birmingham 6, Bloody Sunday etc. all of that's just passed her by has it?

And luck at the outpouring of public and political support for Damilola Taylor's family, and Stephen Lawrence's - you think this shows a country that where the vast majority of people are appalled by racism and injustice?

Depending on how you choose to define "Racism" and "Sexism", that may be so. However this is a purely semantic argument. No matter how immune one may be to a specific definition of racism or sexism, that doesn't mean they're incapable of being WRONG!

I, as a left-handed person, cannot discriminate against right-handed people.
