HEATHER MAC DONALD (GUEST): Well, the proponents of white privilege theory have a whole lot of explaining to do, Jesse. By my count that's seven non-white groups that are ahead of whites in household income. They can't all be faking it as pretend whites. America has to stop apologizing for phantom racism, this is not a racist country. Here is what explains those success rates: very low rates of illegitimacy, high rates of bourgeois values. The kids in those households that are doing so well, here's what they're doing: they are studying, they are paying attention to their teacher, they are working hard.
Here's what they are not doing: gang banging, getting involved in drugs, dropping out of school. People of color, the world over, in third world countries, are banging at the doors to get into the United States. They do not see this as a racist country.
And here is who else has to do some 'splaining, the Progressive politicians who demean this country as racist and yet who demand open borders. If this is such a racist country, why are they insistent that we have an endless flow of people from third world countries into this hotbed of racism, talking about phantom racism distracts us from the real problems which Mr. Woodson talks about, knows so well, bad policies but above all a breakdown of culture.
