U. Colorado Boulder Prof: Violence By Blacks Against Asians A Result Of White Supremacy
“when a Black person attacks an Asian person, the encounter is fueled perhaps by racism, but very specifically by white supremacy”
Jennifer Ho teaches Asian-American studies at the University of Colorado, Boulder. She recently wrote an op-ed blaming all race related violence in the United States on white supremacy.
Progressives seem to think that if they just keep repeating this narrative, people will believe it’s true.
The amazing thing about this column is that Ho offers examples of attacks on Asians by black people, and then blames these incidents on… white supremacy.
She writes at the Conversation, via Yahoo News:
White supremacy is the root of all race-related violence in the US
Amid the disturbing rise in attacks on Asian Americans since March 2020 is a troubling category of these assaults: Black people are also attacking Asian Americans.
White people are the main perpetrators of anti-Asian racism. But in February 2021, a Black person pushed an elderly Asian man to the ground in San Francisco; the man later died from his injuries. In another video, from New York City on March 29, 2021, a Black person pushes and beats an Asian American woman on the sidewalk in front of a doorway while onlookers observe the attack, then close their door on the woman without intervening or providing aid…
The point I’ve made through all of those experiences is that anti-Asian racism has the same source as anti-Black racism: white supremacy. So when a Black person attacks an Asian person, the encounter is fueled perhaps by racism, but very specifically by white supremacy. White supremacy does not require a white person to perpetuate it.

What Sullivan is talking about is the mental gymnastics of the intellectual left to turn everything into a white problem. This is from NPR in January. It’s an interview with NYU prof Cristina Beltran:
Understanding Multiracial Whiteness And Trump Supporters
LULU GARCIA-NAVARRO, HOST:
The chairman of the hate group The Proud Boys identifies as Afro-Cuban. One of the organizers of the pro-Trump extremist group Stop the Steal is Black and Arab. Christina Beltran is a professor of social and cultural analysis at New York University. And she uses the term multiracial whiteness to explain why some groups who are disdained by white supremacists embrace white power movements. And she joins us now to explain. Welcome to the program.
CRISTINA BELTRAN: Great. Thank you so much for having me.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: So what do you mean by multiracial whiteness?
BELTRAN: So there’s been a whole lot of people thinking and theorizing about white supremacy. And all of these scholars share a view that I share, that whiteness is not the same thing as white people and that whiteness is actually better understood as a political project that has emerged historically, and that is dynamic and that is always changing. And so whiteness as an ideology is rooted in America’s history of white supremacy – right? – which has to do with the legacy of slavery or Indigenous dispossession or Jim Crow. And I think it’s important to realize just how long in this country legal discrimination was not simply culturally acceptable but legally authorized. And so we’ve only been practicing a more consistent form of legal equality for a relatively short time since the 1960s. So Americans have often learned how to create their own sense of belonging through violence and through the exclusion of certain groups and populations.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: So what you’re saying, essentially, is that people of other races and ethnicities want to benefit from white privilege by supporting it.
BELTRAN: Right.
Nothing stops the leftist narrative. Not facts, not statistics, not science. Nothing.

When genocidal maniacs like NPR, Jennifer Ho, and Cristina Beltran tell you over and over again that they hate you and want you dead or enslaved – in the holy name of God BELIEVE THEM! It is the only time they ever tell the truth.
And believing them, cull them from the herd.
Wow that’s racist. Blacks have no agency at all according to Jennifer Ho. Does she believe ‘she’ has agency? So…no one has agency except….. who?
When you can’t get or hold on to a man, you become a genocidal maniac.
It’s fueled by IQ. East Asians are even better at white mathematics than whites, on the average.
Yes, it’s a green pathology that normalizes diversity that breeds adversity.
Math has no color …
This “whiteness” narrative is super racist. It is as dangerous as it is stupid.
You cannot fix stupid.
So, how do you fight stupid ?
Seems like stupid is spreading like a pandemic.
We need a vaccine for stupid?
Stupid is winning.
This makes KNOW how worthless a PhD is these days.
White supremacy = the Swiss Army Knife of all the problems of the world.
Good to know.
I hope, too, COVID vaccine will eliminate 5% of the world population because they’re stupid.
In a sane world, the sheer stupidity of this would get Jennifer Ho laughed right out of the society.
In our current world, she will soon start charging – and receiving – 6 figures for one-off speeches.
Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of leftists.
I note she teaches a courses in a department offering nothing in the way of useful skills or knowledge. Why do we taxpayers have to pay for this rubbish?
So Asians are white now. Blacks committing violence against Asians would be purely racist and not caused by “white supremacy”.
No, Asians are White when trying to get places in higher education, Blacks are White when they attack Asians, and Whites are allies when they attack Whites.
Logic. How does it work?
Without all the fancy words, her view appears to be that White Supremacy is responsible for making Blacks angry. Therefore, they then go out and commit violent crimes way out of proportion to their percentage of the population. (Perhaps some reparations hath charms to soothe the savage breast.)
This is classic wife-beater / bully logic: “Look what you made me do.”
Diversity [dogma] (i.e. color judgment), not limited to racism, breeds adversity.
That said, diversity of individuals, minority of one. #HateLovesAbortion
Well first off, quit calling them leftists and start correctly calling them liars, marxists, communists and fascists.
Spot on.
To defeat the enemy one must know the enemy and recognize who and what they really are. As opposed to what they try to disguise themselves as.
I thought of this when I saw the article. Professor Ho isn’t helping to solve the problem (too difficult), she’s making sure that it continues by her refusal to blame those responsible for black on Asian violence. If you can’t identify the (actual) problem, you will never solve it.
Leftist need to have their brains examined
Better have a very powerful microscope.
“Progressives seem to think that if they just keep repeating this narrative, people will believe it’s true.”
Seems to have worked …
Irrational insanity on display !
There must be a script out there for far left “experts”. With blanks that say {insert topic here} and the rest is pre-written to say the same thing and blame the same causes. Beyond tiresome.
What about when Asians attack blacks?
White supremacy.
What about homeless people? White supremacy.
What about border problems? White supremacy.
What about the crime rate in Chicago? White supremacy.
What about all the deaths from COVID-19? White supremacy.
What about drug abuse? White supremacy.
What about domestic abuse and gun violence? White supremacy.
What about global warming? White supremacy.
What about all the lost people who die and go to hell? White supremacy.
That’s Jackie Chan supremacy.
“Asians attack blacks”
Probably 99.999…% is self defense.
A liberal can make off the wall comments, just totally make stuff up out of thin air, and it will be accepted as if it were the truth. The media will put a spin on it and nobody will bat an eye. The result is people like this are considered fully qualified to be expert witnesses in the Chauvin trial.
Remember: she and her kind vote.
We need minimum IQ standards for both holding office and to vote. As it stands, we have dull normal people using their fellow morons to sway elections. That is the essence of Dem strategy.
The Dems have been positively responsible for dumbing-down the electorate and they are aware of that responsibility. See the Wikileaks Podesta email in which a Democrat operative bemoans Hillary’s weakness as a candidate despite the decades the party has devoted to creating “an unaware and compliant citizenry” – he wasn’t writing about Trump supporters. This programming has happened, and the Democrat leadership is not only aware, but is responsible for it. https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/3599
And to think I thought I was being a wag for having claimed, weeks ago, the absurdity that white supremacy was so powerful, it caused blacks to commit hate crimes against Asians.
I was joking. This dumb ninny takes it seriously. Lord, help this planet, so populated with fools and idiots.
Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
Ho’s contention that Black violence against Asian is due to ‘White Supremacy’ is no different to the Nazi’s contention that all wrongs are due to ‘the Jewish Problem’. Students of history will remember how the Nazis tried to solve that problem, and Democrats are on track with it. Disarm the population, defame the population, delimit what work, school, trade etc they may do, and eventually ship them off to camps. At 60-75% of the population (depending how White Hispanics are classified), an outright ‘Whites to camps’ policy won’t work, but conservatives are a much smaller share and the Left are schizoid about them. On the one hand White conservatives are dangerous violent evil people, on the other hand they can be offended and ignored with impunity. Since the Left have been manufacturing their own reality for quite some time why would they stop now?
Does mass cremation add to climate change? Would Chinese style re-education be better for the environment?
Posted my comment before reading yours. We are in sync.
She has a PhD in English, which means she has a piece of paper not worthy to be used wiping a criminal’s butt in jail.
I am not impressed, at all, by her circular firing squad philosophy of race. She is obviously self-loathing and amoral about it.
Why someone as inherently intellectually incompetent as she is would be given a class harder than study hall monitor defies explanation.
She can shoot her mouth off as much as she wants—it only makes her look even dumber than she already is.
“piece of paper not worthy to be used wiping a criminal’s butt in jail.”
Liberal art degrees, where someone really ends up with a well rounded education, still have some merit. The problem is that such has been undermined by general dumbing down of those degrees, and that is probably a consequence of Affirmative dumbing down.
Take a look at Baltimore and Detroit. See how cities flourish when the scourge of “White Supremacy” is eliminated?
Here’s a valuable experiment: replace the words “White Supremacy” everywhere in her quotes with “Body Thetans.” Then you’ll have a hint of exactly what the scam is here.
The general rule is non-whites are not responsible for their violent actions because of white supremacy.
It’s all whitey’s fault. Everything wrong with America and the world is whitey’s fault.
Rewind to 1930’s Nazi Germany. Take 1930s Nazi anti-Jewish propaganda and replace Jew with white. See the similarity?
American Democrat neo-Marxists are using the Nazi playbook to seize power and create a one-party system of extraconstitutional government. It’s deliberate. They know exactly what they are doing.
Another chap refers to them as CommuNazis. Makes sense. I’m still a fan of Woko Haram and Wokerati but perhaps a distinction needs to be made between government, business elite, and the liberal jihadists?
Just can’t get behind “Woko Haram.” My brain just starts playing “Whiter Shade of Pale.” Though there’s certainly some irony there.
Someone should ask her if white privilege and white supremacy allowed her to ascend to her lofty, overpaid position, and if she wouldn’t mind giving it up for someone who does not benefit from white supremacy?
Libberish – the language of the Left. A three-year-old wailing about the monsters under his bed makes more sense. BTW, is Dr. Ho related to Kamala?
What a dope. All those years of school made her dumber.
LOL it looks like the MLB backed the wrong horse when they chose Colorado. Well, at least we know that MLB embraces this position or else they’d have packed up and moved by now.
It’s good for us that baseball has left no doubt as to what their political position is and who and who will not be welcomed to watch their sportsball game.
It’s probably only going to get worse for Major League Wokeball if the people they choose to do business with continue to put out editorials like this.
I suppose the fundraisers wonder why I become surly when they call me for donations to my alma mater in Boulder.
The idiot professor is expressing a racist ethos. Basically, this idiot professor and the idiot who was interviewed on NPR radio contend that black Americans are incapable of comporting themselves in accordance with societal norms of behavior, and, in accordance with our laws. The two twits are asserting that black Americans are devoid of personal agency, volition, personal responsibility, etc. That’s a brazenly racist and paternalistic attitude.
She justifies her hatred of whites by reducing black people to dullards and whites as racist…conveniently leaving her race as superior. This women needs mental therapy.
Somehow these logical contortions make me think of Ptolemaic astronomers trying to fit observed data into their worldview rather than admit that the simpler heliocentric Copernican worldview provides a superior explanation for that observed data.
Surely if we just add a few more epicycles-within-the-epicycles-within-the-retrograde-cycles everyone will see that our theory is (and always has been) correct?
All we have to do here is redefine what “whiteness” means, and what “Asian” means, and what “black” means (and perhaps what “violence” means) and then anyone can see that our theories are invincible!
(“Faced with the choice between changing one’s mind and proving that there is no need to do so, almost everybody gets busy on the proof.” — attributed to John Kenneth Galbraith.)
I guess we just can’t win.
More evidence that Democrats are cultists and fantasists. They are losing their minds..going Pelosi.
Common core and all the progressive “new-think” public school gobbledegook has created a suspension of disbelief so strong that kids will swallow this sort of pretzel logic whole without question. Especially if its served up by someone with more than 2 letters after their name.
The anti-asian sentiment in the urban black community goes way back. Remember the Rodney King trial LA riots ? Blacks resented the hell out of asians coming in, working hard and prospering and it was time for some reparations, street style. The advancement of asians was a stinging reminder that they’d sold out for the promise of free-stuff and preferential treatment leading to idleness in perpetuity
As they say on Wikipedia, {{cn}}. I have personally seen a few incidents of anti-Asian bigotry, and am aware of many more, and I have never seen or heard of even one example that was not by a black person.
