“A Complete Load Of ABJECT Nonsense” Julia Hartley-Brewer BLASTS BBC ‘White Privilege’ “Propaganda”

BBC Newsround has been criticised for teaching the concept of “white privilege” to children.
The news service is facing complaints over an article on its website titled “White privilege: What is it and how can it be used to help others?”
TalkTV’s Julia Hartley-Brewer blasts the BBC over the “propaganda”.
“Critical race theory has no basis in fact at all, it’s a complete loads of abject nonsense - it is one of the most racist theories going about!”
A BBC spokesperson said: “This article was first published in June 2020 and has not been changed.”

There is no such thing as ‘positive’ discrimination. Discrimination is taking a decision to treat folk differently. That disgraceful guy needs to read and absorb THOMAS SOWELL’S dialogue. He is an academic with a large following and does not discriminate. He gives the facts which are all backed up by history - going back many hundreds of years. He blows a hole in the selected pieces of information that folk with a ‘victim’ ( my words - not his I have to say) persona have to say. I so appreciate what he has to say. Bottom line is everyone is the same regardless of colour. As always I really like what Julia has to say but also her guest is also speaking sense and truth. The more we highlight bad things about any other race, it makes everyone a ‘race’ and not a person. This is true - we are humans long before we are anything else. And there is good and bad everywhere We need to get on with the job of improving humanity across the board and not fixating on who deserves this that or the other. The women are spot on - don’t make anything into a race argument when there is none - and certainly don’t talk claptrap to try to help your mis guided case
