A white USC professor is under fire after she said during a recent conference that her career and life would be easier if she were black and a lesbian.
Lois Banner, a professor emerita of women’s history at the University of Southern California, spoke during the Berkshire Conference of Women Historians on Friday.
Banner, 83, reportedly said she wished she were a lesbian because they had great communities and that her career would have been better if she were black.
‘You won’t change my mind, I’m 84 years old,’ Banner allegedly said, refusing to apologize. Her words were shared by Stephanie Narrow, a student in attendance.
According to conference guests, Banner’s antics came just moments after a black professor had spoken on racism and exclusion in the academic space.
She wrote that the event ‘took a turn’ after Banner – who she did not initially name – shared her extremely controversial opinions.
‘A white senior scholar at the 50th anniversary plenary VERY publicly, and unapologetically, said that she wished she was Black so her professional life would be easier,’ Narrow tweeted out Friday night.
The student said that the professor – who has a Ph.D. from Columbia University – was shunned for the comments which caused an uproar.
‘She was immediately called out for her blatantly racist remarks, and refused to apologize, let alone listen, to the reason why her remarks were horrifying wrong.’
Narrow went on to say that the ‘room was shaken,’ calling the feeling that rippled through the auditorium ‘palpable.’
The student did not name Banner as the professor who had made the startling remarks until several hours later, but stated she had confirmed Banner’s identity.
Another crowd member, Paul Renfro of Florida State University, described the situation by saying that ‘s**t went absolutely off the rails.’
‘A lot of folks (myself included) walked out due to a dreadfully racist comment made by one of the presenters,’ Renfro tweeted on June 30.
‘She was reprimanded by several audience members, and quite a few attendees walked out,’ he said.
“The statements caused shock and outrage among those in attendance” you bet, hahaha…
speaking truth to tyrants is a martyrdom duty these days.
Good for this woman. She is right. She has the right to express herself. Liberals are hypocrites.
So many people can’t handle the truth.
“Another crowd member, Paul Renfro of Florida State University, described the situation by saying that ‘s**t went absolutely off the rails.’”
I’m sure Renfro is a peter puffer dressing in drag after school hours or even during school hours for that matter. Typical 21st gutless, brainlesd male simp.
And kudos to the 83 year white lady who showed more backbone than Renfro who has no balls.

Banners Antics…. yeah,,, (what a brave woman!) but she is truthful which is a lost attribute these upside down days of lies and propaganda.
The true racists were those that walked out afraid of the truth. Denial is the last stage. You know you are over the target when everyone attacks you. Today, folks will lie, cheat and steal just to belong.
Why does anyone think a group needs 300 points added to their ACT? Why are they trying to eliminate the ACT? Why eliminate math? Why eliminate physics? Why eliminate language? Why eliminate cursive writing?
The US has given up on designing a hypersonic missile because they simply could not get it to work. Why? Read the above. (Of course, Once it steals the designs,,, then it will produce one)
The West and especially the US is a poster picture of the Pacled Race on Star Trek.
Why didn’t she just identify as a black lezza, job done.
And if Lois Banner had been black, “gay” and married to a tranny…
she might’ve beaten Obongo to the Presidency!!🤣
Quote of the Day –
”She was immediately called out for her blatantly racist remarks, and refused to apologize, let alone listen, to the reason why her remarks were horrifying wrong.’
These aren’t Historians in any sense of being disinterested and serious – they are Leftwit Cartoons.
‘Let me tell you why what you are saying is horrifyingly wrong, and you must listen’
How’s THAT for Scholarly Detachment –
They are a disgrace to women who want to be taken seriously – they all act like hysterical schoolgirls as soon as their Woke Consensus is prodded slightly.
Their own mothers showed more fortitude when they went through the pain of giving them birth- this lot are spoilt entitled hysterics with the Antifas mentality – the campuses are full of them, Professors as well as students, as any member of Students for Life of America will tell you.

The People Of The Lie, and their 79 I.Q. nig-groid worshipping flunkies walked our in righteous outrage when an old white woman broke the truth on their evil
scurvy asses!
she is absolutely right and would need
only half of her brain .
In the 1970s Dean Martin roast shows, Banner’s comment would’ve brought the house down. What a bunch of self righteous prigs today’s ‘educators ‘ are.
Gotta love the old girl.
I accepted the social conditioned construct of “racism” going back to the 80s when tolerance was the buzz word of the day and calling a black a black was racist. Here in Aus in the 80s a black woman could walk into a supermarket and take a shit in one of the plastic bins offered for sale without recourse I know I witnessed it. And yes it scared me hehe. Now with that in mind this old girl didn’t say fking black or fking lesbian she simply stated the bloody obvious in today’s Jew subverted times in the west. That’s not racist it’s awareness. If conditioned triggered minds got offended over these simple statements that the old girl made then that’s on them and their own growth journey. They always have the right to walk out and keep on walking out till they land on Mars. Because they can have that place but they ain’t getting ours. Fkem.
