So here we are. Who agrees that a white man cannot teach cultural studies? And can a black man teach Latino and SoutheastAsian studies if a white man cannot teach black studies? Or has the world gone absolutely nuts?
Black community leaders in Fresno, Calif., are urging the Fresno Unified School District to re-evaluate the hiring of a white guy toteach three cultural studies courses at a brand-new middleschool that will overwhelmingly serve minority students.
Rutherford B. Gaston Middle School — named after the city’s first blackprincipal — will open in a few short weeks. It’s the first middle school in the immediate, poverty-ridden vicinity since 1979.
The protesters are unhappy because the school has chosen to hire Peter Beck, aperson with white skin, over other, unidentified candidates, The Fresno Bee reports.
Beck will teach African-American studies, Latino studies and Southeast Asian studies. . . .
. . .“We’re just saying what the community wants,” said Rev. Karen Crozier, oneof the activists. “We didn’t fight for a white male or female teacher to educate our babies.”
Crozier, who appears to be a professor at Fresno Pacific Biblical Seminary, also suggested that a white person cannot teach minority children in this instance because of racism. . . .

Rest assured they can. They simply have to be a white woman with very specific traits. I had an openly Communist (or whatever she claimed to be) white female teacher for a university elective course on race.
-She has to be at least six feet tall without heels. Don't ask why. I don't know why.
-She has to be profusely good looking. We're talking every minority in the room can passively giver her a "Well she's no doubt spoiled and clueless, but I'd def tap that so I'll play along" pass
-She has to be naturally blonde. Don't ask me why. I don't know why. A dark haired white women is never getting away with teaching this class.
-She has to have straight hair. Curls will not do. I don't know why.
-She has to be emotional at all times. Objectivity plays no role in.. anything in this class. You will be given "Emotional reflection time slots" in every class whenever she has a particularly strong emotional lapse which is often
-She has to have long blonde hair. Again I don't know the reasons for this, but she does.
