NYU Librarian Has ‘Fatigue’ from Presence of White People
“dealing with the micro- and macro-aggressions that inevitably occur”
Isn’t it amazing how comfortable some progressives are in making their racial biases known?

NYU librarian laments ‘fatigue’ from ‘presence of white people’
A New York University librarian recently bemoaned the “racial fatigue” she experiences “in the presence of white people” following an academic conference.
April Hathcock, a Scholarly Communications Librarian at NYU, recently attended the annual American Library Association [ALA] conference in Chicago, a trade conference for people in the library profession.
Right after the conference, Hathcock took to her personal blog to describe her “Post-ALA Race Fatigue,” lamenting that she was suffering from “serious race fatigue” after spending five days amongst her colleagues [emphasis in original].
“Race fatigue is a real physical, mental, and emotional condition that people of color experience after spending a considerable amount of time dealing with the micro- and macro-aggressions that inevitably occur when in the presence of white people,” Hathcock wrote. “The more white people, the longer the time period, the more intense the race fatigue.”
While Hathcock noted that she is normally exhausted after such conferences for reasons unrelated to racial issues, she said that this time she “hit her limit” after spending five days “being tone-policed and condescended to and ‘splained to.”

“Race fatigue is a real physical, mental, and emotional condition.”
I’m gonna stop you right there…
This is insanity.
If POC culture had created these things, she could live in that culture. But if she wants to work in the area, then she has to work with the culture that created it.
Life is sooooooooooooooo tough.
Someone get that jackwagon a tissue.
Totally has nothing to do with her own issues, I’m sure.
“mental condition” Check.
I think we are all getting fatigued.
am i supposed to care about this?
because, frankly, you couldn’t pay me to GAS about her “fatigue”…
maybe if she wasn’t a fing idiot, people wouldn’t have to ‘splain things to her dumb a55
PS: she sounds racist as well…
imagine the outcry if a white person were to poast the exact opposite, that being around non-whites for days on end was fatiguing.
yeah, they’d be out of that nice government j*b in a heartbeat, not to mention being doxed too.
This would be headlines all over America if a white person said this. Go to Libya, you’ll feel better and so will I.
“racial fatigue”…and many of us are getting tired of hearing you whine about it. the vast majority of minorities go about their daily business with no issues. But s few need to make these comments to get their name in the media. Otherwise, they would be an unknown no one ever heard of before.
The source of her perceived microaggressions is her own incompetency, she has a affirmative degree and is simply not up to dealing with better qualified people in the profession.
We need to put a stop to handing out degrees based on attendance.
But I’m a victim, damn it! I’ve been forced to ‘work’ with you people all day and I’d much rather be home watching TV with a large sugary drink in my hand. Bah!
I experienced Race fatigue back in 1967 when in 7th grade. Everyday blacks forced me to move out of their way while walking down the halls and called me racist names like honkey. A couple of times a week I had them attempt to rob or assault me. Then when MLK was murdered I had 30 or so black kids attack me because some kid told his friends that I said I was happy the MLK was dead. This was a lie. The black kids took on the KKK as their role models.
The worst crimes are committed by those who see themselves as victims and use that to justify evil. The Southern Whites saw themselves as victims of Northern aggression and used that to justify Jim Crow, the KKK and the oppression of blacks. The Germans saw themselves as victims of France and England after WW1 and used it to justify exterminating Jews and starting WW2. Many Blacks in this country are using the past mistreatment of blacks as justification for evil and the Progressive Fascists in pursuit of their votes are spurring them on.
This part of the modified Peter Principle, the modification being affirmative action cloaked as “diversity and inclusion.’ Promote an imbecile to their level of incompetence for no good reason telling them how special they are the whole time, and when they feel the pressure that comes with people expecting them to be competent and perform their job well, they automatically come to the conclusion that they are victims of [fill in the blank].
That just means she has a poor customer service attitude in the workplace.
She should immediately file for social security disability payments due to her mental condition, as should anyone else who experiences the PTSD that comes with interpersonal relationships with others not your own race or ethnicity.
the democrat party wanted segregation.
They have simply got their slaves to do the dirty work for them and called regression progress.
