An Ohio State University workshop warned white students about their privilege and told them that only whites can be racist.
A Tuesday seminar offered handy "Tips & Tools for White People," the College Fix reports.
The university's website announced the event with the promise that students would be shown how to "develop a personal plan of action to interrupt racism," but, because only white students had any need to develop such a plan, only white students were encouraged to attend.
Of the 20 students at the workshop, 19 were white. One African-American student attended as an observer while a College Fix reporter recorded the proceedings.
The workshop attempted to demonstrate that race, power and prejudice are the "ingredients" that produce racism. This is why white people alone can be racist, explained Angie Wellman, because they wield power in society while non-whites do not. {No, obsession with race is the key ingredient that produces racism ... which is why leftists are the most racist people on the planet.}
The black student in attendance asked Wellmann, who is the associate director of the Student Life Multicultural Center at Ohio State, whether that meant that white people had a monopoly on racist attitudes. Wellman said, of course it did. {So, you deem white people to be "racist" simply because of the color of their skin, which is a clear, unabashedly racist statement. Therefore, YOU are a racist, Angie. And, besides being a racist, you also appear to be quite confused about what you are, exactly ...}
~ Angie Wellman
Hmmm ... should that be "Angie," or "Andy"?
From your LinkedIn summary: "I currently contribute my talents to The Ohio State University Student Life Multicultural Center via my role of Associate Director after having served as an Intercultural Specialist in the center for six years. My transformational work with LGBTQ and other minoritized students, staff, faculty and alumni was recognized with The Ohio State University Distinguished Staff Award in Spring 2016.
I have had a dynamic career involved in social justice movements since my undergraduate career at Kent State University where I held leadership positions in the campus Student Services Center and served as a catalyst to providing diversity and inclusion trainings to residence hall staff."
The workshop also directed the students to talk about the first-time experiences with concepts like race, racism, white supremacy and white privilege. The white students seemed quite comfortable embracing the idea of white privilege.
"Whiteness grants you power and access to things," one student confessed, according to the College Fix. "As a white woman, I can walk into any space and know that my white privilege will grant me power and access to things that someone else is not going to experience." {Oh really? Well, lil' Miss White OSU, why don't you take your supposed "white privilege" down to the Hood and see what kind of "experience" you get, eh?} 
The workshop moderators moved the students along other reflective paths, asking them about their feelings on such things as reverse racism, power and oppression, while inquiring if they could identify how white culture can be observed in society. Being punctual was one example of how white culture has become so pervasive in America. {"Being punctual" is responsible for "white privilege," eh? But ... but ... but ... that's NOT a racial quality ... that's a behavioral quality. So, you're sayin' that ... if black people choose to behave in a more punctual manner, they will attain the benefits of "white privilege," too?!}
One student suggested that when blacks get together for a demonstration, "it's a riot," while white people are just having "a protest." {No ... when BLM and white Antifa thugs demonstrate and then start breaking windows, burning cars, assaulting people, and threatening police officers, that is when it is called a riot. Again, you are confusing behavioral qualities with racial qualities.}
To conclude the introspective group conversation, the workshop leader provided the students with a helpful list of 26 examples of white privilege, that included such things as seeing white people report the news on television. {But, wait just a minute, Angie ... Andy ... or whatever your gender-confused name is ... what about the fact that when we tune into a professional football or basketball game that 80% or more of the people on the field or court are black ... is that black privilege?}
