A California professor’s controversial social justice lecture on "the abolition of white democracy" has gone viral after a student videotaped the anti-Trump presentation and shared it online.
During the talk, Diablo Valley College Professor Albert Ponce labeled President Trump a white supremacist and encouraged students in attendance to violate American laws.
“So we begin with the fact that we exist in a white supremacist, patriarchal, heteronormative, capitalist system,” Ponce says at the outset of his one-hour talk, “White Supremacy in the U.S.” The speech was the first in DVC’s Social Justice Lecture Series for the 2017-2018 academic year.
The political science professor also says the U.S. Constitution is a “white man’s constitution” and praises Karl Marx, who wrote "The Communist Manifesto," as “one of the most profound thinkers in the history of western philosophy.”
Standing in front of a slide showing a picture of Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions, and which featured the phrase “the abolition of white democracy,” Ponce says, “it is fitting that a white supremacist of old with a white supremacist today exist and sit there smiling in the White House.”
“Abolition. What does abolition mean?” he asks. “Abolition means we must destroy it, not reform it.”
Ponce adds: “No voting’s going to help. No writing your congressperson. We need to smash white supremacy at every institutional level in this state…and we try to use legal means, but are legal means enough?”
A student, during a question and answer period, chimed in by taking Ponce's statements a step further: “When we do abolish this white democracy...it will have to be in conflict...where we have to bear arms, where we’d have to go against and do what is illegal.”
Ponce responds: “Well, what is illegal in the eyes of the state.”
