Professor Stephine Li of the University of Rochester published an article called “The White Elephant in Romney’s Room,” in which she attacks the Republican candidate on account of the “unearned privileges of his upbringing and race.”
Campus Reform reports:
Li went on to sharply criticize Mitt and Ann Romney’s refusal to link their success to their white skin color.
“The Romneys’ shortsightedness on this issue demonstrates their ignorance of one of the central ideas in the field of critical race studies, the unearned privileges accorded to whiteness,” she wrote.
“Romney truly is the whitest man to run for president because he doesn’t realize how his whiteness has influenced his life,” she continued. [H]e is “naïve at best.”
Li is author of the book Something Akin to Freedom: The Choice of Bondage in Narratives by African American Women.
Yet again, a member of the academic left is asking Americans to judge a man by the color of his skin rather than the content of his character.
