      What is Louis doing in this White woman's classroom, Vehko wants to know? While White Susie is entitled & is presumed to spend hours on Netflix & social media, Black Louis is failing because he has to work fulltime. MANY students have to work to survive, but #POC often struggle

      Class & race intersect: Vehko, who you'll see identifies as an older (White) woman, is incensed that a Black man would work fulltime rather than focus on studies. This bias reflects White privilege: Vehko could focus on study b/c that's life as a middle class White woman

      Louis is also sexualised in a way none of the other students are in this op ed ('handsome Black man') and otherised, in classic Whiteness tactic. He's not a threat to Vehko's whiteness because he's soft spoken.

      Yusef 'a Saudi man' in his 30s with a wife & kids - mentioned to evoke his *backwardness.* He must be cheating. 'In his culture, charm & small chunks of work are enough to gain a degree.' This racist stereotype is ludicrous but Vehko pretends to care about international studentspic.twitter.com/FAKfbd6XXS

      Stephen was presumed the ideal student until he got rude: 'initially someone I looked forward to teaching...he was literate, upper middle class, white, male and studious.' Stephen's whiteness only becomes remarkable because he exerted his male privilege over Vehko, a White womanpic.twitter.com/yy0Czr3cW3

      This is a classic way in which White women participate in White supremacy: White men are their aspirational equal until they enact patriarchy. This is a perfect illustration of why Peggy McIntosh theorised white privilege (her work below) - which was specifically about academia.pic.twitter.com/wHb2o4NgQS

      screen grab of 'The Invisible Knapsack' by Peggy McIntosh: 'Thinking through unacknowledged male privilege as a phenomenon, I realized that, since hierarchies in our society are interlocking, there was most likely a phenomenon of white privilege that was similarly denied and protected....think whites are carefully taught not to recognize white privilege, as males are taught not to recognize male privilege'

      As the seemingly perfect White specimen let her down (the White man Stephen), Vehko shows her truest colour in her exultation of Linda. Linda is in her 50s & embodies the perfect student because she is Vehko: 'I wonder if we share a kind of generationally kindred brain.'pic.twitter.com/KNtpN7n2gI

      screen grab from article from 'Another reason for this is Linda...' to '...confused with my course and me.' read link to article at the end of my thread

      Linda's race us not mentioned but #POC don't need it to be. Vehko sees herself in Linda, who is not tech savvy but, unlike other 'millennials,' Vehko says Linda is not 'angry, frustrated and confused with my course and with me.' Never mind Vehko's article is about her own anger

      Academics reproduce Whiteness in many ways. For White academics & students sharing this because they agree with Vehko, same as for White academics & students sharing this (rightly) put off by poor attitudes towards students, neither group has thought about what this does to #POC

      Yes the subtext is Louis should just give up, university is not for him. Instead of: my job as lecturer is to support him.
