A Duke University professor was defiant after the school last week condemned his "noxious" and "offensive" words in a letter published in The New York Times in which he compared African-Americans unfavorably to Asian-Americans. The school's rebuke came after a student backlash against Political Science Professor Jerry Hough, 80, whose May 9 letter sought to address racism and the Baltimore riots. Hough said African-Americans don't try to integrate into society, while Asians “worked doubly hard” to overcome racism instead of blaming it. “Every Asian student has a very simple old American first name that symbolizes their desire for integration,” he wrote on May 10. “Virtually every black has a strange new name that symbolizes their lack of desire for integration. Duke students and faculty blasted Hough last week, and the school told The News & Observer of Raleigh that he was placed on leave and that 2016 will be his last year at the school. “The comments were noxious, offensive, and have no place in civil discourse,” said Duke spokesman Michael Schoenfeld. “Duke University has a deeply held commitment to inclusiveness grounded in respect for all, and we encourage our community to speak out when they feel that those ideals are challenged or undermined, as they were in this case.” But Hough, in an e-mail to an ABC affiliate, said political correctness is getting in the way of thoughtful and frank debate. “I am strongly against the obsession with ‘sensitivity,'" Hough wrote. "The more we have emphasized sensitivity in recent years, the worse race relations have become. I think that is not an accident. I know that the 60 years since the Montgomery bus boycott is a long time, and things must be changed. The Japanese and other Asians did not obsess with the concentration camps and the fact they were linked with blacks as ‘colored.’" Hough even played the "Coach K" card, referencing beloved and legendary Duke basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski in his email. "Coach K did not obsess with all the Polish jokes about Polish stupidity," Hough wrote. "He pushed ahead and achieved. And by his achievement and visibility, he has played a huge role in destroying stereotypes about Poles. Many blacks have done that too, but no one says they have done as well on the average as the Asians.” Citing privacy, the university would not comment on the professor’s future at the school, the station reported. University officials say Hough has been on a standard academic leave for the 2014-15 school year.

And this (white) professor has tenure while the incoming (black) professor at Boston University, Saida Grundy, does not. Yet she gets away with saying, “White masculinity is THE problem for America’s colleges” and “Deal with your white (expletive), white people. Slavery is a *YALL* thing”, and “Every MLK week I commit myself to not spending a dime in white-owned businesses. And every year I find it nearly impossible.” He tells the truth on a public forum while she demonstrates her racism on a public forum yet HE'S suspended???
And as a result they predominate many of the sciences and professions. God bless them.
Welcome to the fundamentally changed from its foundation U.S.. Stay tuned for much more of the same.

Of course. Some pigs really ARE more "equal" than other pigs. George Orwell was a visionary. BTW,no insult to pigs intended.

Not really. The US will no longer exist as a sovereign nation or a Constitutional Republic within 20 years. It will be a part of the bork,and be called something like "The North American Union,Inc".and will consist of the US and Canada. Maybe/probably Mexico. We will be RULED by a corporate board elected by the bankers that own the majority of te stock in the Union. Nobody else gets a vote. And blacks will be in for a HUGE shock,"come the day".

I think you mean and not Right? Seriously though, didn't realize you were an optimist in giving it 20 years. I'd give it more like 5 or at the most 10
LOL! Ya got me,although I have no desire to become a part of either. Seriously though, didn't realize you were an optimist in giving it 20 years. I'm not very optimistic about this. The facts are that the powers behind this are mostly the old European Jewish banking families,and the one thing they have learned by hard lessons repeated is "don't get too pushy because pushy people die". It's a case of 2 steps forward and one step back with these people. IMHO,they will wait until the last of the Americans who grew up before 1964 have died off because after that there will be no living Americans who have lived in a free country,thus there won't be anybody left around to even question,never mind challenge their final grab for power.

This will be, if not already, no country for whiye men. Frankly, I don't think that there are any white men under 50 anymore as the youngers have been pussified, brainwashed, trivialized, emasculated and pushed to the back of the bus. Have you notice that every criminal in a commercial these days is a white man (on very few occasion a white women) and most of the heros or authority figures of the commercial are mostly of color or a white woman? Even white women are belittling white men. For sure, it will be more of the same. If the blacks will be shocked come the day it won't be from the white guys but an ese.

I agree with the first half of his statement here. I'm not so sure about every black in the second statement, although I recall looking at a high school girls basketball game box score a while ago in the newspaper and showed it to a friend and said, check out those names. Edit: Just thought of two headliner names: Michael Brown of Ferguson and Freddie Gray of Baltimore. Only a sample of two. I confess that I don't know many young blacks, but I had lunch with Al today while James was unable to make it...both black men.
The white guys behind the shock will remain anonymous,much like they are today as they push this crap in order to take over the country. They may continue to promote a few black "overseers" but the majority will be his or her Panics or Asians. They will be the public face of lower and mid-level management,and blacks will be mostly manual labor or overseers for manual laborers. There is no way the white/Jewish international bankers behind this are going allow themselves to be forced to step down from power,though. They are pushing this whole thing purely to increase their power,not diminish it. They will continue to remain "the man behind the curtain",though. They want power,not targets on their backs.

Fred,I suspect both you and mrwhite have valid points. I am guessing the two black men with normal names you eat lunch with are over 40,and the majority of the "Chlamydia Lexus" and "Ant-wan Muhammed" names you hear and see on police reports are 25 and younger. I have a black friend in his 70's who is so upset over the way his children,grandchildren,and great grandchildren are acting that he has cut them all out of his will and leaving everything to charity. The kindest word I have heard him use when referring to his youngest son is "nigger". This man might dress like poor working class and be out there working every day of his life even though he is in his 70's,but his estate is considerably larger than any casual viewer would suspect. There are a couple of real estate developments that have gone up in this area in recent years that had white front people,but he owned the land and was a partner in the developments. He also owns a trucking company with several big dump trucks. Not to mention rental property. And those are just the things that I happen to know about. WTH knows what the total list would come to if it were all known? He's doesn't do any bragging about what he owns,normally dresses in Sears work clothes,and drives a Ford pu he bought new 10+ years ago most of the time. I only know about some of the stuff he owns because I have known him for probably 40-50 years. Nobody ever gave his squat. He worked for everything he has and he is still working every day of his life. Folks,it ain't just the senior generation of white people that are disgusted by the way their young people think and act.

Yeah. Maybe he's referring to just the black females.
That still does not bode well for the average white band in the U.S. and around the globe.

That's true,but the Euro-weenies and other whites have never really had the freedoms those of us who grew up before the 1960's were born having,so they won't miss it. Which is another point in my theory that America MIGHT last another 20 years before it is dissolved. The globalists will want to wait until the majority of the work force and the voting public are all people who grew up in the 70's and later because they will never miss what they never had,and will be far less likely to revolt.
