White Men Are 😡😡 at a Course Taught This Semester at University of Kansas Called “Angry White Men” THE BACKGROUND 💡 From white male Kansas Congressman Ron Estes, to the also white male Executive Editor at right-wing North KC newspaper “The Heartlander”, white men are outraged that a course dedicated to studying “Angry White Men” is being taught at the University of Kansas this semester. “Imagine if a certain word was changed? Outrage would be everywhere." complained a white male KU student Alex Dwyer, seeming to allude to if there was a course titled “Angry Black Men”. DEFENDER'S TAKE 📝 Dwyer’s argument, and many other white men who are outraged, appear to not be aware of the fact that white men are the only demographic who have waged genocide on Indigenous people in the U.S., to have led terrorism campaigns (KKK) and the chattel slavery of Black & African peoples, and most recently, to have led a coup against the United States government. MORE BACKGROUND Outrage about the course goes back to 2019 when it first began being taught, but has been reignited by right-wing news outlet “The Heartlander”. ABOUT THE COURSE 📃 The course description reads, “This course charts the rise of the ‘angry white male’ in America and Britain since the 1950s, exploring the deeper sources of this emotional state while evaluating recent manifestations of male anger.” What do yall think? Are the angry white men who are mad about this course just proving the point of the class? 🤔
