Nov 17, 2019
Julian von Abele said that he was 'theatrically and sarcastically' demonstrating that white people 'are not allowed to embrace their cultural achievements' during the exchange with other students early Sunday.'My reaction that evening grew out of my distaste for the overuse of the term "white privilege" and similar divisive rhetoric as a means of dismissing views of others', he told the Daily Beast.

He smiled and jumped around as he yelled 'white people are the best thing that happened to the world!''White people are the best thing to ever h...
