A gang that launched a savage knife attack at a French village’s winter ball, killing a teenage boy, told guests, ‘we are here to stab white people‘ before the rampage, according to a report.
The 16-year-old high school student, identified only as Thomas, was stabbed at the weekend when a group of outsiders descended on a festive crowd of around 400 people gathered in Crepol, in the southwestern Drome region, for a dance party in the village hall.
He died on his way to hospital, while at least 17 others were injured, two of them seriously.
An off-campus housing co-op for University of California, Berkeley students bans white people from entering common spaces to “avoid white violence” — sparking criticism that the policy inflames racial tensions.
The five-story, 30-room “Person of Color Theme House” near the school requires students to declare their race when signing in and to announce when they’re bringing white guests in to the building, according to house rules leaked on Reddit.com.
“Many POC moved here to be able to avoid white violence and presence, so respect their decision of avoidance if you bring white guests,” the rules declare. “White guests are not allowed in common spaces.”
In an email dated Jan 19, 2021, Squadron Leader Andrew Harwin, who worked in the Officer and Aircrew Selection Centre, sent an email to his colleagues, where he wrote: “I noted that the boards have recently been predominantly white male heavy.
“If we don’t have enough BAME (Black, Asian, Minority Ethnicity) and female to board then we need to make the decision to pause boarding and seek more BAME and female from the RAF.
“I don’t really need to see loads of useless white male pilots, let’s get as focused as possible, I am more than happy to reduce boarding if needed to have a balanced BAME/female/male board.”
In September 2020, some of the country’s biggest companies adjusted their hiring practices to employ people based on their skin color, in this case favoring Blacks. What this means is that their race was explicitly considered in the hiring process, thus putting Whites, Asians, and others at a disadvantage.
Although Title VII the 1964 Civil Rights Act “protects individuals against employment discrimination on the basis of race and color,” some of the largest companies in America openly factor race in their hiring decisions, privileging Blacks and discarding Whites.
Their justification is, essentially, revenge. They portray Whites as uniquely evil, apply insulting generalizations to White people as a whole, and ignore any history of slavery, violence, discrimination, mistreatment, ethnocentrism, or warfare perpetrated by any other race. They are not interested in a society in which you are an individual. They are interested in a society of fragmented, clashing identity groups, in which a racial caste system determines your opportunities in life.
CdeBaca faces a June 6 runoff to represent District 9. Her challenger, Darrel Watson, said he also supports racial reparations in the form of private business investment in underserved communities.
“Capitalism was built on stolen land, stolen labors, and stolen resources,” said CdeBaca, who identifies as a Democratic Socialist.
CdeBaca said a business improvement districts, or BID, could be used to enact a race-based tax on white-owned businesses.
“You could be collecting those extra taxes from white-led business all over the city and redistributing them to Black and Brown-owned businesses,” CdeBaca said.
Note that the NBC 9 News author writes Black and Brown in uppercase, whereas White is written in lowercase. This is part of the reason the term “equality” has been replaced with “equity.” They are not interested in equality; they want to belittle Whites — in this case quite literally.
ALBANY – The Albany Public Library is under fire from an out-of-state nonprofit after posting a job internship only for Black candidates.
The Touhey Equity Foundation Fellowship has been offered for the past two summers. It pays for two interns who must be “recent Black graduates of library school programs.”
But this year, the library received a cease and desist letter from the Equal Protection Project of the Legal Insurrection Foundation.
The foundation, a nonprofit based in Rhode Island, has filed complaints and threatened litigation in many cases, most recently objecting to “racially preferential” practices at colleges and universities.
Note the artwork hanging in the window of the public library. Disregarding the infantile corporate reductionist vector aesthetic, the Black woman on the right has natural hair, wears a bright orange top, and holds the world in her hands. The lighter, possibly Hispanic woman on the left is wearing a bright top and a stylish scarf, has a neat utilitarian haircut, and is holding the “recycle” symbol. Of course, the White person at center is a mess: unknown gender, depressing black clothing, a bizarre disordered haircut, and is holding the LGBT rainbow heart in xir hands.
You might argue I’m reading too much into the illustration, but one of these racially-coded characters is clearly not like the others.
Police were informed by the school’s principal that “a group of Black students had gathered several white students on a specific spot of the playground and forced them to state ‘Black Lives Matter’ against their will,” the police report states.
Students who tried to avoid the situation were “chased down and escorted, dragged, or carried to the playground,” the report alleges. The group of students also allegedly filmed the students who were forced to make the statement.
Carling’s decision came at the behest of Shelly Guy, the director of ASL for “The Lion King,” and called for Carling to get rid of all non-black interpreters, according to another email obtained by The Post and cited in the suit.
“The majority of the characters in the Lion King are black actors and the content takes place in Africa,” Guy wrote Carling on April 1.
“Keith Wann, though an amazing ASL performer, is not a black person and therefore should not be representing Lion King,” she declared.

In the pantheon of American history, conservative old white people have pretty much always been the bad guys, the keepers of the hegemonic and reactionary flame, the folks unwilling to share the category of American with others on equal terms.
Fine, keep it up. It doesn’t matter.
Because you’re on the endangered list.
And unlike, say, the bald eagle or some exotic species of muskrat, you are not worth saving.
In forty years or so, maybe fewer, there won’t be any more white people around who actually remember that Leave it to Beaver, Father Knows Best, Opie-Taylor-Down-at-the-Fishing Hole cornpone bullshit that you hold so near and dear to your heart.
There won’t be any more white folks around who think the 1950s were the good old days, because there won’t be any more white folks around who actually remember them, and so therefore, we’ll be able to teach about them accurately and honestly, without hurting your precious feelings, or those of the so-called “greatest generation” — a bunch whose white contingent was top-heavy with ethical miscreants who helped save the world from fascism only to return home and oppose the ending of it here, by doing nothing to lift a finger on behalf of the civil rights struggle.
It’s OK. Because in about forty years, half the country will be black or brown. And there is nothing you can do about it.
