How white passing hurt our family
[quote]The documentary- series "Finding Lola" is done, but is
the journey over? I sat down with my aunt Kathleen (Lola's
granddaughter) to talk to her about her reaction after watching
the series on our family story, the ancestry dna tests, and how
she feels about her newly-found ancestry and family
history.[/quote]

Passing (racial identity)
[quote]Racial passing occurs when a person who is classified as
a member of a racial group is accepted or perceived ("passes")
as a member of another racial group. Historically, the term has
been used primarily in the United States to describe a black or
brown person or of multiracial ancestry who assimilated into the
white majority to escape the legal and social conventions of
racial segregation and discrimination.[/quote]
[quote]Passing for white
Although anti-miscegenation laws outlawing racial intermarriage
existed in the United States as early as 1664,[1] there were no
laws preventing or prosecuting the rape of enslaved girls and
women. Rape of slaves was legal and encouraged during slavery to
increase the slave population. For generations, enslaved black
mothers bore mixed-race children who were deemed "mulattos",
"quadroons", "octoroons", or "hexadecaroons" based on their
percentage of "black blood".[2]
Although these mixed-race people were often half white or more,
institutions of hypodescent and the 20th-century one drop rule
in some states – particularly in the South – classified them as
black and therefore, inferior, particularly after slavery became
a racial caste. But there were other mixed-race people who were
born to unions or marriages in colonial Virginia between free
white women and African or African-American men, free,
indentured, or slave, and became ancestors to many free families
of color in the early decades of the United States, as
documented by Paul Heinegg in his Free African Americans of
Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Maryland and
Delaware.[3]
For some people, passing as white and using their whiteness to
uplift other black people was the best way to undermine the
system that relegated black people to a lower position in
society.[4] These same people that were able to pass as white
were sometimes known for leaving the African American community
and getting an education, later to return and assist with racial
uplifting. Although the reasons behind the decision to attempt
to pass are deeply individual, the history of African Americans
passing as white can be categorized by the following time
periods: the antebellum era, post-emancipation, Reconstruction
through Jim Crow, and present day...[5]: 4 [/quote]

Latinos And White Supremacy
[quote]Bomba Live Host Ray Collazo is joined by racial justice
journalist Arturo Dominguez on his recent "Latinos and White

impacted by white supremacist views.
Dominguez shares how Latinos typically get influenced by white
supremacist ideology and how media's portrayal of immigrants
contributes to this toxic culture of racist hate. Collazo also
analyzes how Latino led hatred is centered on anti-blackness and
anti-indigenousness in the United States and Latin America.

Stanford’s White Supremacists

Stanford’s White Supremacists
[quote]Removing the symbols of the university's history with
eugenics won't be enough.[/quote]
[quote]Long before the Varsity Blues scandal of 2019 drew
attention to ways economic elites use educational institutions
to launder privilege and literal cash, Gilded Age university
presidents were shaping their institutions in response to the
diversifying population of the United States, and the threat
this diversity posed to the social dominance of a majority-white
elite. Confident in the natural superiority of the white race,
their principal concern was the degeneration of the national
genetic stock as a result of demographic turnover. More than a
century before white supremacists rallied against the “great
replacement” and “white genocide” in Charlottesville,
progressive education reformers were sounding the alarm about
“race suicide.”
The Leland Stanford Junior University, founded in 1885 by one of
the nineteenth century’s most notorious robber barons, offers a
special view into the symbiotic mechanisms that connect elite
economic interests, liberal progressivism, and academic
racecraft. When former California governor and soon-to-be United
States Senator Leland Stanford and his wife Jane Lathrop
Stanford established a university in memory of their only child,
they did so with the belief that their incredible wealth could
supply the university with the endowment it needed to entice the
nation’s finest faculty and make Stanford a competitive rival to
its tony counterparts in the East. Unlike those universities,
established by churches and weighted down by tradition, Stanford
was founded as a non-denominational and coeducational
institution that aimed to be a leader in the sciences, as well
as the newly recognized disciplines in the emerging social
sciences: psychology and sociology.
To assist them, the Stanfords recruited David Starr Jordan, then
the president of Indiana University, to helm their new
institution. A fish biologist by training, Jordan was a highly
respected man of science who bonded with the Stanfords over
their shared admiration for Louis Agassiz, a Swiss naturalist
and race pseudoscientist who had once been the Stanfords’
houseguest. At the time of his appointment to lead the nascent
university, Jordan was already well on his way to becoming a
leading figure in the American eugenics movement: his study of
Darwinian biology had predisposed him to accept social Darwinist
historical interpretations of the decline of past empires. These
were the motivating theories behind his leadership at Stanford,
where his devotion to social Darwinism would become his lasting
legacy.
While serving as president of Stanford, in 1902, Jordan
published a pacifist–nativist tract titled “Blood of a Nation: A
Study in the Decay of Races by the Survival of the Unfit.” This
book-length essay was expanded from an article that Jordan had
published the previous year in Popular Science Monthly. Although
not as flagrantly racist as many contemporary nativist and
eugenics tracts, the essay was Jordan’s contribution to the
paranoid narrative of national genetic decadence that fueled the
rise of social Darwinism from the academy to the halls of power
in Washington, DC. His book gave a significant institutional
platform to a variant of the “great replacement” narrative later
repeated by Madison Grant and today peddled by the likes of
Richard Spencer. But academic tracts were not Jordan’s most
enduring and damaging accomplishment.
During the foundational years of his presidency, Jordan
personally undertook efforts in faculty recruitment that made
Stanford a hotbed of social Darwinist and eugenicist ideology.
Realizing that the nascent social sciences presented
opportunities to position Stanford University, and himself, at
the cutting edge of social discourse, he concentrated his
recruitment efforts in those fields. One of Jordan’s early
appointees was Ellwood Patterson Cubberley, whom Jordan named
dean of the Stanford School of Education in 1898. Cubberley was
a staunch believer in the heritability of intelligence, and
promulgated the view, still influential today, that educational
testing could identify students with the greatest natural
endowments, so that they might be offered the finest educational
opportunities and groomed for careers in leadership. Cubberley
also originated the notion that schools should be run like
businesses, and that both students and teachers should be tested
regularly to optimize results—a market-oriented educational
philosophy that today undergirds the charter school movement.
Cubberley’s outlook, already hideously fatalistic for an
educator, was considerably worsened by his bigotry. According to
“Eugenics on the Farm,” a terrific series of articles published
by Stanford student-journalist Ben Maldonado to document various
strands of the long and ugly history of eugenics on campus,
Cubberley’s book Changing Conceptions of Education describes
Southern and Eastern European immigrants as “illiterate, docile,
[and] lacking in self-reliance.” It comes as no surprise, then,
that Cubberley stridently opposed immigration from those
regions, on the grounds it “served to dilute tremendously our
national stock.”
In 1910, Cubberley recruited Lewis Terman to the Stanford
faculty. Terman was a disciple the Alfred Binet, a French
psychologist who pioneered the concept of intelligence testing.
While at Stanford, Terman carried Binet’s work forward,
ultimately resulting in the publication of the Stanford-Binet
intelligence test. Like his mentor Elwood Cubberley, Terman was
an unwavering utilitarian who believed that widely applied
intelligence testing could ensure that children be placed into
separate educational tracks and prepared for careers suited to
their level of intelligence. Terman and his students used the
culturally biased Stanford-Binet test to demonstrate the
“natural” intellectual limitations of Mexican and
African-American test subjects... [/quote]

How Irish Americans became White: finding your roots
[quote]Irish-Catholic immigrants have a long and complex history
in America, dating back to colonial times. Charles Carroll, an
Irish immigrant, came to America in 1706, and his grandson,
Charles Carroll of Carrollton, signed his name to the
Declaration of Independence. However, it was not until the 19th
century that large waves of Irish immigrants arrived in America.
The "No Irish Need Apply" signs were evidence of discrimination
and prejudice faced by Irish immigrants in the United States,
and Ignatiev's argues that the Irish had to work to become
"white" in America. [/quote]

German Immigrants: not WHITE and not WANTED
[quote]In the 1750s, Benjamin Franklin expressed concerns about
German immigrants in the Thirteen Colonies, highlighting their
potential impact on English culture and language. Franklin
believed that Pennsylvania, founded by the English, should not
become a "colony of aliens" who would resist assimilation into
English customs. His writings reflected a desire to preserve
English dominance and cultural identity in the colonies. While
Franklin's views were influenced by the context of the time,
they shed light on the complexities of early American attitudes
toward newcomers and the challenges of cultural
assimilation.[/quote]

Note:
[quote]German is widely considered among the easier languages
for native English speakers to pick up. That's because these
languages are true linguistic siblings—originating from the
exact same mother tongue. In fact, eighty of the hundred most
used words in English are of Germanic origin.[/quote]

[quote]Is English originally from German?
English is a West Germanic language that originated from
Ingvaeonic languages brought to Britain in the mid-5th to 7th
centuries AD by Anglo-Saxon migrants from what is now northwest
Germany, southern Denmark and the Netherlands.[/quote]

[quote]The Germanic languages are a branch of the Indo-European
language family spoken natively by a population of about 515
million people[nb 1] mainly in Europe, North America, Oceania
and Southern Africa. The most widely spoken Germanic language,
English, is also the world's most widely spoken language with an
estimated 2 billion speakers. All Germanic languages are derived
from Proto-Germanic, spoken in Iron Age Scandinavia. [/quote]

Still bad, because the "white Germans"'s coming during that time
also not made the United States rapidly change its colonialist
worldview, US only being good when the "blacks" take advantage
from the Cold War situation and made a mass protests to enforce
anti-racial discrimination rule during the 1960s without
democratic approval from the majority of "white race". The
world-class prestige.
