And that was the trouble with the interview at Otago. It was very 'chosen white'. Every single person on that panel was white. Was 'important' for whatever it was that they were allowed to do. Wanted to be acknowledged and revered for the work they had not done. People who were sufficiently in-bred such that more modern (and inclusive) ideas posed a threat to them.
A threat to last rites of the church.
A threat to giving at risk youth an actual chance.
...And I don't want to join them.
There is an actual poster up in advertising:
'Success Breeds Success'.
It's a poster advertising the University of Auckland.
There was this really large poster on the back of a bus, too, that was... I don't remember what it said. Something about being the best success you could be. Then a picture of a young Indian (from India) woman with what looked like a really large wedding ring.
Advertising the Univesrity.
They seem pretty determined to take a 'low road' to growth. A sort of a: Just how sh*tty can we advertise things as being and... And still they come. And still people throw thousands upon thousands upon thousands of dollars at us and hand over their kids to our 'protection' (haha).
ANd their attitude has been 'and who will stop us?'
It is a form of white supremacy on campus.
The grades are given to the 'chosen white' and the training places in professional degree programs and the like.
