MSNBC host Touré earned himself a deserved Twitter drubbing this week when he attributed the success of a Holocaust survivor to “the power of whiteness.” It’s academic that someone from higher education would agree with Touré’s assessment, and Donald Earl Collins of the University of Maryland University College stepped up to fill the role, lauding Touré’s “great response.”
@Toure @hope_and_chains That was a great response, and it highlights how White ethnics, including Jews, became White after WWII. #Whiteness

Again, we’re talking about the “white privilege” of Holocaust survivors — and “the power of whiteness” was a “great response.”

This tweet by decollins shows how leftists keep minorities down… Self reliance = whiteness

When minorities get off the plantation they have to discredit them somehow.

@U_Quack_Addict Something tells me you do an excellent job of blaming others for your own failures. That makes you a typical American!

And a typical white person, as President Obama would say.
