Tim Wise - The Pathology of White Privilege

Somewhere in there Tim Wise briefly mentions white history month is every month not explicitly designated otherwise. This is obvious as he points out. However, he claims this is why there is no need for a white history month. I would suggest the opposite. Because such a month is implicit is exactly why it should be explicit. If students and media were to try to celebrate it, there would be nothing special. This could draw more attention to the hegemony of white culture.
