Boston University Professor Ibram X. Kendi to step down

The Issue

Ibram X. Kendi,is a Boston University Professor. He has written a book called "How to be an Antiracist". The other day he tweeted the following about Amy Coney Barrett. 

"Some White colonizers "adopted" Black children. They "civilized" these "savage" children in the "superior" ways of White people, while using them as props in their lifelong pictures of denial, while cutting the biological parents of these children out of the picture of humanity". 

This is an outrageously racist statement to be said by someone who claims to combat racism. He wouldn't dare go after Madonna , Charlize Theron, Sandra Bullock... because of their political backgrounds. Thus proving, this man is using his "deep understanding of racism" for political reasons.  

This is not a man who should be "teaching" at a College. This is clearly an unhinged individual who thinks black children should only be in families with the same color skin. He is insinuating that parents who adopt, cannot love and care for children who don't look like them. He needs to open his eyes. Many families all over the United States of America, and the World have interracial families. There are tons of humans who care for children with different skin color. This man is insulting and dangerous to children looking to be adopted, and parents who are longing for them.
