Dr. Frances Cress Welsing Pt 1 of 2
For Welsing, the world's most pressing problem is the disturbing issue of white supremacy, or racism. "I put the discussion of melanin on the board in order to [describe how pigmentation] was a factor in what white supremacy behavior was all about," Welsing noted in an interview with Michael Eric Dyson for Emerge. "If I had my way, there wouldn't be all the discussion about melanin. I would say, Discuss white supremacy."
Welsing laid the foundation for her ongoing discussion of white supremacy in her groundbreaking 1970 essay The Cress Theory of Color-Confrontation and Racism. In it, she reasoned that because whiteness is a color deficiency and white people make up only a small percentage of the earth's population, they tend to view people of color as a threat to their survival and therefore treat them with hostility. She stated that their defensive reaction has been to impose white supremacy, or racism, on people of color throughout history.
Basing part of her argument on observations by Neeley Fuller in his 1969 Textbook for Victims of White Supremacy, Welsing focused on his view of racism as a "universally operating 'system' of white supremacy rule and domination" in which the "majority of the world's white people participate." He suggested that economic forms of government such as capitalism and communism were created to perpetuate white domination and that the white "race" is really an "organization" dedicated to maintaining control over the world. In addition, he argued that people of color have never imposed "colored" supremacy on anyone.
Using Fuller's contention that "most white people hate black people [because] whites are not black people," Welsing went on to suggest that "any neurotic drive for superiority," in this case, the white drive, is based on a "deep and pervading sense of inadequacy and inferiority." Welsing cited journals, diaries, and books written by whites as examples of their "initial hostility and aggression" towards people of color and particularly towards black people "who have the greatest color potential and therefore are the most envied and the most feared in genetic color competition." She added: "That whites desire to have colored skin can be seen by anyone at the very first signs of Spring or Summer when they begin to strip off their clothes, often permitting their skins to be burned severely in an attempt to add some color to their white, pale, colorless bodies, rendering themselves vulnerable to skin cancer in the process."
Welsing asserted in The Cress Theory that many whites are unable to peacefully live among or attend school with people of color because it explodes "the myth of white superiority" and forces them to face their "psychological discomfort" and "color inadequacy." She also stated that "the difficulty whites have in according 'non-whites' socio-political and economic equality stems ... from the fundamental sense of their own unequal situation in regards to their numerical inadequacy and color deficiency." To compensate for this inadequacy, Welsing judged, whites strive to maintain a superior social position and manipulate non-whites and themselves into thinking that they are a worldwide numerical majority instead of the minority. In support of this conclusion, she cited statistics indicating that birth control is rarely emphasized for whites, while a great emphasis is placed on controlling the birthrates of people of color.
She concluded her Cress Theory of Color-Confrontation by arguing that people of color must gain a better understanding of the "behavioral maneuverings" of whites in order to avoid being "manipulated into a subordinated position." In her view, people of color need to "liberate" themselves psychologically from various forms of white domination. She also suggested that whites need to understand the motivation behind their behavior and explore with an open mind the emotional and psychological foundations of racism.
The issue of white supremacy is discussed in depth in Welsing's 1990 book The Isis Papers: The Keys to the Colors, a virtual fixture on the Blackboard African American Bestsellers List. In the book, the author uses America's preoccupation with sports to illustrate what she perceives to be white supremacist behavior in action: "The whole of white culture," she wrote in The Isis Papers, "is designed to say that whites have [certain] qualities. Everything possible is done to demonstrate this. First, you have [only] white players, then blacks come in, but a white has to be the quarterback. Western culture has to project white supremacy." Welsing further contended that when blacks succeed athletically, whites are forced "up against the psychological wall" because white youngsters are "brought up to believe a white has to be superior."

His own inferiority and insecurity is showing in the rude way he will not allow the good Dr. to complete her sentences. For some reason, white supremacy mentality is so deeply entrenched in white society that they don't even see past their own ignorance. Even in the face of truth they deny it. so sad. You are missed Dr Welsong.
Thank you, Sister! It's sad that more people couldn't comprehend the truth in your message before you passed. But your legacy and your work will never die.
Rip queen mother you are very much appreciated for all the knowledge you have taught the black man and woman, opening our eyes to who we truly are!!!!!
well to the fair skinned people in Donahue, black came from blakka and blanc. The british changed the semantics and created disparaging system to the MOORS because whites got their ass wooped unfortunately. so yeah whites are BLACKS.
what a woman….she got at everyones enemy, which is the global system of white domination and never came off like a piece of peasant trash…a trait which ceems to follow most open opponents of everyones enemy….she will be missed on earffffff!!!!!!
Every time a white person stands up to respond they prove her point. They are not even understanding the conversation their just on attack mode. They're not even listening and this is her point. It's easy to talk to none white people about race but it is nearly impossible to have honest dialog with whites about race and that is part of the point as well. Whenever someone points out a defect or problem we may have we don't respond to it by saying "oh you are so right" we usually go on attack mode no matter what color we are because emotions get involved and it's impossible to think rationally when we're emotional especially when it comes to discussing race issues with whites. She is using years of research and study not just her opinion and it still doesn't resonate with whites. The fact is if whites keep having babies with blacks or othee non white people vice versa their won't be any white left. Are you telling me that the wise, white, racist power structure don't know this and are trying their best to prevent this? Get the fuck outta here with that ignorant naive bullshit…..instead of wasting time trying to get whites to understand their own evil wicked selves I think we should focus on our own issues, unite and create our own reality and let them and white supremacy die a natural death. Everything that is has a beginning and an ending. So it is with the minorities on our planet….

Whites need to get over themselves with their pretentiousness
