Howard University Prof wants whites to emulate John Brown

Well-known
A far-left Howard University professor called for White allies of the leftist political cause to mirror a pre-Civil War-era vigilante mass murderer, who was eventually hanged for his crimes.

Stacey Patton is a professor of journalism at the Washington, D.C., private school. In a recent blog post titled "John Brown Didn’t Ask Enslaved People How to Be A Good White Ally," she discouraged White liberals from asking her how to be a better "ally" to minorities, and encouraged them instead to emulate Brown.

Brown was a militant slave abolitionist during the pre-Civil War "Bleeding Kansas" period. In 1856, he orchestrated the Pottawatomie massacre. He and fellow abolitionists dragged five Kansas settlers, at least three of whom were pro-slavery sympathizers, out of their homes and executed them.

"Brown didn’t need a syllabus, a think piece, or a guidebook on allyship. He didn’t need affirmation from Black folks that he was one of the good ones," Patton wrote. "He saw the horror for what it was and decided that ending this racist
(profanity) mattered more than being understood."
I keep hearing about racism and ill treatment of minorities, but I never see examples, just accusations. The fact that Prof. Patton is in the position she is in, is proof that blacks and other minorities have the same opportunities as everyone.

Violence will only ruin your cause! Violence only shows that you are incapable of discussing things in a civilized manner and any perceived discrimination is more likely based on behavior than race. And that is the elephant in the room. So many today believe they can behave in a violent or rude manner and still command the same respect as others who act responsibly.
