The event was in honour of Black History Month, according to an Ambrose Student Council Facebook post.
Sey provided his notes for the speech to the Post. It opens with a question and a proposition: “If I asked you, what’s the best anti-racist book today, what would you say?”Sey argues that racism is determined by intention, not outcome, if you go by the Biblical definition. He cites two books of the Bible: 2 Timothy and James, arguing the “Christian definition of racism is that it’s partiality, or bias against someone because of their skin colour.
Sey also suggests there needs to be “a policy or law within a system — especially our political system — that shows partiality for white people or partiality against black people.” Absent that, there cannot be systemic racism, he says.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.
The Ambrose student council said that Sey was vetted, but that they feel the process fell short for this event.
This is one of the days when I wonder why I subscribe to this publication. Conservatives who get all giddy when they find a Black person to say this idiocy out loud....seriously? Front page news?
