>Cambridge University’s English Literature professors will be forced to replace white authors with black writers, under new proposals put forward by academic staff following student demands to “decolonise” the curriculum.
>For the first time, lecturers and tutors will have to “ensure the presence” of Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) writers on their course, under plans discussed by the English Faculty’s Teaching Forum.
>The move follows an open letter, penned by Lola Olufemi, Cambridge University Student Union’s women’s officer and signed by over 100 students, titled “Decolonising the English Faculty”.
>“For too long, teaching English at Cambridge has encouraged a ‘traditional’ and ‘canonical’ approach that elevates white male authors at the expense of all others,” the letter said.
>“What we can no longer ignore, however, is the fact that the curriculum, taken as a whole, risks perpetuating institutional racism.”

BEST PART:
>Earlier this year, students at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) demanded that figures such as Plato, Descartes and Immanuel Kant should be largely dropped from the curriculum because they are white.
No problem with them dropping Kant his idea of the Categorical Imperative was just pseudopcience.
I don't agree with their motives for this but in terms of a University course I do think it should be more broad than just national relevancies.
Until the end of secondary school I do think it should be nationally-focussed, but University should offer a wider array to give you the broader perspective.
A lot of East Asian and Indian scholars were as astute as the Ancient Greeks. Not that many that I know of from Africa but definitely a lot of them from the Orient.

whats the point of going to a fancy school if they dont teach anything.
Adam James
people go to school to fuck around and to extend their teenage years. it's a fucking waste of money.
Luis Watson
While I do agree, the point with these guys was not that non-Whites are not taught, they want authors to be included solely on the "merit" of their skin color and to exclude White authors, regardless of the value of their work. Plato wasn't just someone, he was basically the father of philosophy, now he is persecuted because he was White, not because he isn't worthy of being taught.
Charles Turner
Like I said I disagree with the motives.
They're just the standard bitter activists, they could bring about the same outcome by learning philosophy and writing their own works to a higher standard, create a new Black intellectual, but they don't. There are plenty of them as it is, they could mass publicise their various works, but they don't.

Brody Ramirez
Wow, you guys are some what just as bad as they are, seriously. You complain about disscrimination by colour/background with wich I agree, but are just as easily dissmissive of mentioned authors as those you claim are wrong doing. To disregard Plato is to disregard basis of western thought, to disregard Descartes is to throw away the ''idea of attempt at'' non-idealogical/non-scholastic/non-dogmatic attempt at philosophy, wich without any research or work onto before dismmising Descartes is as, let's say, sniffing your own farts (s.: South Park). But what the hell is with you guys that even remotely agree on Kant being redundant?? I can understand those who ''didn't get him'', as he sure is difficult read and his works heavily refference each other, therefore demand extencive reading.

Dumb stupid faggot, his critique of pure reason was a response to Humean skepticism that threatened enlightenment philosophy and science. Without him and his triggering a paradigm shift in all of subsequent philosophy we wouldn't have the epistemological view of inquiring into the world-of-appearances in place of unknowability. He solidified metaphysics as a science. Just shut the fuck up already.

We lack the funds. The powers to be WANT a stupid, cheap workforce they can distract with non-issues, there's trillions of dollars to be made with mass immigration, for corporations and the politicians they bought; while all the negative effects and the costs are only on the taxpayer. It's an unholy alliance of globalist megacorporations and the insane self-destructive left. Combined, they represent almost unlimited funds and shill force. All the while we have just the autists and the disgruntled natives who see their countries going to shit. It will be very tough to build up another new societal infrastructure, we should rather concentrate on removing the worst offenders from the structures that are already there. We need to organize and petition and protest shit like this.

No worries, those middle class white kids tourists can take their money, the same money many locals depend on and take it elsewhere, some place far away from impoverished African villages . Pro tip, the African villagers actually want the whites with their money to come and visit, because the villagers like making money . But hey one entitled middle/upper class black bitch says she knows better , so whites with their money should go some place else. Locals in poor countries love tourism , they want to open businesses to house, feed and entertain tourists. It helps improves living standards in such areas . But the middle class black bitch has spoken .
Nicholas Smith
I agree. I basically went through philosophy in this order and it had a red pilling effect. It's like you build up all the logic of Rome and Greece, build up a bit more, then you start reading straight up "ooga booga, if a man rapes a goat the sin-spirit stays with the goat and it is doing justice to kill the goat, but he must not feed it to his family! Take the path of suicidal Asian religions and stop caring about the world. The God of Many Heads, takes no poo to the loo!"
You go from classical art with layered meanings and a focus on elevating yourself to ideals, to "ooga booga, dis was a mask made by old tribe to help them have strong stamina for the spirit journey!"
Some Asian art is good, but they can't into human anatomy for shit.
After studying it all you will have a much better view of why western art and philosophy is so much further ahead and remains that way.

I'm fucking sick of non-whites. They literally think that whites aren't reminded of their "plight" at every fucking moment of every day. Jesus fucking christ It's all so god damn tiring.

I've got no problem with minorities and women and whoever expressing themselves artistically or intellectually. It only pisses me off when the best they can come up with is "black version of white character" or "chick version of male character". It pisses me off even more when they mask their creative bankruptcy as some kind of courageous stand against white people or whatever.
