The University of Wisconsin-Madison offers a ridiculous course in its African Cultural Studies department called “The Problem of Whiteness.” It’s not hard to imagine that if the course had “Blackness” in the title, there would be rioting in the streets and calls for the heads of everyone responsible. But in this day and age, telling white people they are a problem is considered a good thing.

Just one look at the course description is everything you need to know about how far we’ve fallen as a country in education:

Have you ever wondered what it really means to be white? If you’re like most people, the answer is probably “no.” But here is your chance! … since white supremacy was created by white people, is it not white folks who have the greatest responsibility to eradicate it? Our class begins here. We will come together with our socially ascribed identities of Black, white, mixed and other and, with the problem properly in its place we will ask ourselves and our allies, what are we going to do with it?

Professor Damon Sajnani will lead the charge against whites by exploring how “they consciously and unconsciously perpetuate institutional racism.” He will also explore with his students on “what it means to be #woke” — or socially and intellectually “enlightened.”

Sajnani even asks his class to “consider the journal Race Traitor’s motto, “treason to whiteness is loyalty to humanity.” Again, I dare ask what would happen if “blackness” was substituted: “treason to blackness is loyalty to humanity.”

But look no further than Sajnani’s Twitter activity shortly after five Dallas police officers were massacred during a Black Lives Matter “rally” earlier this year. He wrote, “Is the uprising finally starting? Is this style of protest gonna go viral?” Sajnani had also posted a song called “Officer Down” and said, “Watching CNN, this is the song I am currently enjoying in my head.”

How can taxpayers be okay funding a place that hires somebody with these views? And do they even know this course is being taught?

That the questions at least two state legislators are asking regarding the legitimacy of such a blatantly racist class and are calling for it to be canceled or risk a delay in both state funding and a pending tuition increase.

One of the lawmakers, Greenville Rep. Dave Murphy, said he is “extremely concerned that UW-Madison finds it appropriate to teach a course called, ‘The Problem of Whiteness,’ with the premise that white people are racist.”

“Even more troubling, the course is taught by a self-described ‘international radical’ professor whose views are a slap in the face to the taxpayers who are expected to pay for this garbage,” he added.

Sure, college should be a marketplace of ideas, but this is straightforward racism paraded as intellectualism. Consider me “woke” to these shenanigans.
