American Colleges are Pushing the Idea of White Privilege Based on Data They Know is Wrong

A recent story that has received almost no media attention, shows that Liberal propaganda is alive and well on U.S college campuses. Even worse is that the peddlers of propaganda (in this case an associate professor of the practice of leadership, spirituality, and intercultural studies), are relying on the student’s lack of education and critical thinking skills to push and cement their agenda.
Dr. Christena Cleveland of the Duke Divinity School, was giving a talk at the Indiana Wesleyan University Chapel. The point of her talk was that Jesus (yes, that Jesus), has a particular form of privilege, and that
“If you’re in this room and you identify as white, then you do benefit from that,”
“We live in a society where white people are accommodated while non-white people are alienated.”
To hit home her point, she quoted from a study that was carried out on Boston and Chicago companies. The companies were given almost identical resumes with only one major difference. The difference being that some had “white-sounding” names like Greg and Emily, and some had “African-American sounding” names like Jamal and Lakisha. The study showed that the employers chose the “white-sounding” names more often.
