    Said actor Rosanna Arquette.

    https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/...feels-disgust-over-being-white-and-privileged

    I have the perfect solution, that is, to give all that she has, residuals, investments, properties, expensive clothing, all of it, give it all to Alcorn State University, Dillard University, Jackson State U., Mississippi Valley State U., Morehouse College, Xavier University, Grambling State University, and other prominent black institutions of higher learning. That will assuage her guilt and do great good in the world.

    As continuing penance for all that is so wrong with her, leave herself just enough to live as a poor person in a shotgun shack, and never travel to Hollywood to experience such unfair, horrendous white privilege again.

    Perhaps Arquette could yet turn out okay.

    Someone should tell her never to apologize for being white.

    That won't help. When you got it that bad you have to work through all of the guilt first before you can listen rationally.:roflol:

    The cynic in me wonders if this is her plan to revitalize her flagging acting career since this is the sort of White self-loathing nonsense that the political Left adores. What better way to tell leftist controlled Hollywood that you are willing to do ANYTHING for another job?

    I don't feel shame for my race because:

    1. I am not a racist, and the alternative proposition is racist.
    2. The child is not responsible for the sins of the father.
    3. My ancestors had nothing to do racism in the past anyway, they were farmers in a remote area. They had no slaves. They were just ordinary people. I dont think Yanks realise how anglocentric it is to use US slavery as a stand in for the history of all white people.
    4. My immediate ancestors fought AGAINST the Nazis, including one of them dying for what he believed in.
    5. Most of all... I have done nothing wrong and will not apologise.

    I see nothing wrong with being proud to be white. We, whites, when we get angry, can start world wars, yet at the same time invented almost everything we use in modern civilization.

    I'm thankful, that Jesus put in the heart of ,white man to end the British involvement in the African Slave Trade.

    I'm thankful ths He also used Northern racists in America to free African slaves from southern racists.

    I'm not proud of anything humans have done. I am thankful for what God has done smong us.

    I'm thankful I was born white and privileged. It is a meaningful advantage. I consider myself lucky since I had nothing to do with how I was born.

    If there's a God he helps those who help themselves. We have done truly great things in the past 300 years. I think people focus on the bad too much.

    In many a coroner's office and dissection labs these words appear over the entrance or on the wall:

    Hic locus est ubi mors gaudet succurrere vitae

    Which in my interpretation is: This is the place where death delights in serving the living.

    Everywhere else not so much.

    This is racist!

    Saying that being white is bad is racist.
    She should be ashamed of herself.

    The whole world is nothing but "racism" now. The concept, but not racism per se, is as common on MSM TV as cockroaches, and the Left is intent on striking it deep into the mind of every person, all people, for very ill purposes.

    If she really means it she will off herself and livestream it..but no..this is just a washed up actress trying to ride the liberal madness wave so she can be back in the spotlight again
