Default professor says school forced him to teach English language is 'White supremacy'

Former Pennsylvania State University professor Zack De Piero is suing the school for discriminating against him on the basis of race



A professor is suing Pennsylvania State University for race discrimination after he was subjected to instruction that the English language is racist and the embodiment of "White supremacy," along with additional tirades against White people in professional development trainings, according to a lawsuit.

Professor Zack De Piero "was individually singled out for ridicule and humiliation because of the color of his skin," the lawsuit, filed by The Foundation Against Intolerance and Racism (FAIR), said.

De Piero was an English professor at Penn State Abington.

"When he complained about the continuous stream of racial insult directed at White faculty in the writing department, the director of the Affirmative Action Office told him that ‘There is a problem with the White race,’ that he should attend ‘antiracist’ workshops ‘until you get it,’ and that he might have mental health issues," the lawsuit alleged.

Some of the workshops included a presentation captioned "White Teachers are a Problem," according to the lawsuit.

"The ‘White Teachers are a Problem’ video imposed on Penn State faculty… associated ‘White supremacy’ with all the evils of the world," according to the suit.

De Piero explained in an interview with Fox News Digital that he was expected by the university to submit to antiracist brainwashing and doctrine, particularly that he as a White person was inherently flawed on the basis of history.

He said the university wanted him to believe that "as a White individual, I'm somehow responsible for all the injustices and suffering currently in the world and in the history of the world."

De Piero continued, "I think there is almost a religious, cult-like environment where you had this Original Sin. In this case, I'm White. I need to repent for that sin. I need to keep going to these [trainings], keep doing the work… I think they were waging a psychological war campaign and they're trying to break people. And they almost broke me. But they didn't."

His direct report in the English department, Liliana Naydan, "expressed her view that racism practiced against White faculty and students is legitimate," according to the lawsuit. Naydan did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The lawsuit alleged Nayden tried to coerce faculty to introduce equity into the grading process to ensure there weren't disparities by "penaliz[ing] students academically on the basis of race."

An equity administrator named in the suit, Alina Wong, engaged in breathing exercises in one session and suggested White staff needed to hold their breath longer than people of color in order to "'feel the pain’ that George Floyd endured," according to the lawsuit.

The man in the article isn't the problem. It's the Cumdawgs of the world who are the problem.

If it wasn't for the white man Africans would still be in deep dark Africa eating elephant turds, rocks twigs and dirt.

so if you say that 'whites' are the source of all our ills, you get promoted and celebrated.

if you say that 'non-whites' are the source of all our ills, then you are labeled a racist and shunned from society (see Robert Byrd and his KKK associates)...oh, wait....

this is very confusing.

If your goal is to destroy a nation and build it back as a Marxist one world government "paradise" then this is exactly what you'd do, set races against each other, Balkanize the country, promote deviancy, etc. It's almost like this is a coordinated strategy, not an organic movement.

The hatreds for whites takes place at every education level, from Pre-K to doctorate courses.

I learned a very long time ago that blaming others is what the weak and lazy do, they do it non-stop, they never want to be accountable for their decisions and actions.

Problem with him winning the suit is that PSU is a state university, the taxpayers pay the damages, this should happen, BUT also everyone in the administration, including the univ prez, should get shitcanned, and their pensions seized in order to offset the court awards.

Apparently, math is racist as well. From what I can tell, for the simple reason that many blacks don't seem to be able to master it.

I can't dunk a basketball. Does that mean that basketball is inherently racist against whites?

Yes it does. You are a victim too. Time to cash in on it.

Isn’t the entire NBA a racist organization? I mean it’s easily 80% or more Black. How is there not an uproar and riots in the streets by white America?

Remember when the worst scandal at Penn State was the molester who worked under Joe Paterno in the football program? Seems quaint. Now look at Penn State. Look what they've become.

Wouldn't even be a scandal today...it'd be a celebration with a parade.

Graduated from PSU in ‘93. My god how things have changed in the 30 years since I went there. This professors story would have been some strange joke back then….today I’m not even shocked it’s true anymore…..
