An English professor at Columbia University urges liberals to stop unfairly labeling any white person who disagrees with an opinion held by people of color a “white supremacist” in a piece for Time magazine.
“A leftist contingent is now charging any white person who seriously questions a position associated with people of color as a white supremacist,” John McWhorter, previously a linguistics professor, writes in Time. “The idea is that if you go against a certain orthodoxy, then it isn’t only that you disagree, but that you also wish white people were still in charge, that you want people of color to sit down and shut up.”
Pointing to a string of people labeled as white supremacists ranging from David Duke to Mother Teresa, McWhorter says the term has gone from an accurate description of people who think the white race should rule everyone else to a weapon used indiscriminately and with way too broad a brush.
