Craig24 Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 What do you make of this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Do_w2V0-3D0&feature=player_embedded White guilt at it's finest. Based on the like/dislike ratio, it's very, very, very, poorly received. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicky Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 Is that real or satire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig24 Posted June 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 Is that real or satire? Based on what I'm seeing from the official website ( unfaircampaign.org ) and in this Desert News story about it, no it is not satire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabernac Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 That's insane. It's anti-racism gone so far it's come out at the other end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ppw Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 That's insane. It's anti-racism gone so far it's come out at the other end. This is its logical extreme, but such "anti-racism" to any degree is still racism. Tabernac 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jam Man Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 Back in June when I first saw the video, I felt compelled to voice my displeasure directly to the University of Minnesota: to: [email protected] date: Thu, Jun 21, 2012 at 3:22 PM subject: Unfair Campaign Repugnant video. You make the asumption that hard work, intelligence, self-discipline and determination play no part in anyone's success, white or otherwise. Instead, you proffer the idea that society as a whole is the "distributer" of rewards, and then only distributes these rewards based on nothing but skin color (undoubtedly the enlightened staff and students of your university are the exception). It may be a shock to you, but there are those of us out here who judge a person based on their character and the content of their mind, and who do NOT feel guilty about whatever rewards we've earned for ourselves -- rewards gotten from the attributes I mentioned above, and from nowhere else. You must learn to see each person as an Individual. You, my dear freinds, are less color-blind than you accuse society of being. Open your own eyes before you preach to me about how closed you think mine are. Sincerely (and not without a foul aftertaste from your video).... The next day the Office of the Chancellor blogged about the PSA, and ended up agreeing with the premise, but not the "creative strategy" of it: http://blog.lib.umn.edu/chan/umdnews/2012/06/unfair-campaign-1.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happiness Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 (edited) It's a bunch of pathetic white liberals trying to make themselves look good by showing off how "not racist" they are. The same people would have joined the KKK if they had lived in a time and place where participating in racism generated a favorable social reaction.

volco Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 http://youtu.be/pAljja0vi2M at least this one gives a bit of room for discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
