University of Pennsylvania law professor Amy Wax known for her history of racist remarks said Black and Asian people are resentful toward Western peoples outsized achievements on a recent segment of Tucker Carlsons Fox Nation show.
Referring to Indian Americans, Wax said April 8 on Tucker Carlson Today: They climb the ladder, they get the best education, we give them every opportunity, and they turn around and lead the charge on were racist, were an awful country. On some level, their country is a s--thole.
Wax, who attended Columbia Law School and has taught at Penn since 2001, previously drew national attention when she said the U.S. would be better off with fewer Asians.
The executive director of the South Asian civic organization Indian American Impact, Neil Makhija, a lecturer at Penn Law, said Waxs overtly racist talking points have led him to doubt his colleagues capacity to teach students of all races.

(38,720 posts)Well, that is certainly unfortunate.
Here's the thing about those minorities "we" caucasians "gave" education to, who now dare to point out the structural racism in our culture: they're right.

(11,767 posts)and when they "try" like Wax, or people like Charles Murray or pseudo intellectual hacks like Stefan Molyneux, they have to fudge the numbers, misinterpret them, or straight up lie.
Facts do not actually fit a Conservative world view.

She screams her prejudice with every word, and is completely unaware of what she's doing.
