University Of Kansas Offers ‘Angry White Male’ Course
Don't know what's worse. Some parent sacrificing to pay for their child to attend this course or some student going into debt to attend this course.
Quote:The University of Kansas is offering a course on angry white men and the role of “dominant and subordinate masculinities” as they connect to “rights-based movements of women, people of color, homosexuals and trans individuals.”
“Angry White Male Studies” (HUM 365), which is being offered during the fall 2019 semester, will explore “the deeper sources of this emotional state while evaluating recent manifestations of male anger” in Europe and America from 1950 to present, according to the course description.
“exploring the deeper sources of this emotional state while evaluating recent manifestations of male anger”
The course is cross-listed under both the Humanities department and the Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies department at KU and is an option to satisfy a Humanities course requirement.

Well they need a white male to teach it, right?
They probably don't have any straight white males in that department.

No. A black lesbian is best suited to tell a white man why he's angry.

You are correct. My apologies.

Reminds me of this little exchange

Tell me more about your struggle. I send thoughts and prayers (from Allah).
I’m not saying I have struggles by any means. If anything, I volunteer my time and money because I know and understand things have been easier for me. I’m not naive to that. I’m also not naive to the fact that politicians and people of influence keep talking about “white male” as if it’s an epidemic. You’re being disingenuous if you deny that as causing division.
Haven’t seen politicians or people of influence talking about white males. I have seen them talking about sexism, racism, rape culture, misogyny, basically being a dick to others, unchecked immaturity and old boys club mentality.

You have to consider with whom the exchange occurred. You won't get much in the way of serious commentary from him/her. He/she would rather dazzle us with zingers and one liners. He/she is pretty good at the whole passive aggressive thing as evidenced above.
"Haven’t seen politicians or people of influence talking about white males."
But, in the very next line he/she mentions rape culture, misogyny, being a dick to others, unchecked maturity and old boys club mentality as if those were traits and characteristics commonly assigned to persons who are not angry or white. Every one of those phrases is code for angry, white and man as any of the words we are accused of using as code such as thug and animal.

It's always fun to substitute a word and see how racist these courses are, e.g. a course on "Angry Black Males" or "Angry Muslim Males." The left's heads would explode.
