Episode notes
The Rise of Anti-White Racism
- Anti-white racism arose from the expansion of the civil rights regime and a shift in focus from protecting everyone's rights to protecting some groups more than others.
- This shift accelerated with the administrative state's involvement and court cases broadening the Civil Rights Act's interpretation, alongside societal events like the Trayvon Martin case influencing public attitudes towards whites.
Prevalence of Anti-White Racism
- Anti-white racism is prevalent in various institutions, with academia being one of the most severe examples.
- Jeremy Carl's book examines 11 different areas, including academia, the military, healthcare, and entertainment, all showing growing anti-white sentiment.
Oppressor vs. Oppressed
- The neo-Marxist worldview of oppressor and oppressed, where whites are always the oppressor, partly fuels anti-white racism.
- However, this isn't the only factor. Power dynamics and resource control also play a significant role.
