A Harvard University webpage that provides resources for parents of students at the school features “anti-racism resources,” including a list of books written by controversial authors who have espoused anti-White rhetoric and have suggested discrimination is OK as long as it’s against White people.

One of the books is Ibram X. Kendi’s “How To Be An Anti-Racist”, another is the infamous “White Fragility” by Robin DiAngelo.

Kendi, born Ibram Henry Rogers, is known for racially inflammatory comments targeting White people.

“Europeans are simply a different breed of human,” he wrote in a column in his college newspaper in 2003. “They are socialized to be aggressive people. They are taught to live by the credo, ‘survival of the fittest.’ They are raised to be racist.”

In his 2019 book, Kendi explained that discrimination is fine, as long as it promotes equity. On the contrary, he said, discrimination is wrong if it promotes inequity.

“The only remedy to racist discrimination is antiracist discrimination,” the book says. “The only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination. The only remedy to present discrimination is future discrimination.”

Kendi also slammed “whiteness” at a film screening in November 2023.

“I don’t think White people worldwide have really reckoned with how much their own personal identity is shaped by constructions of whiteness, and how much that construction of whiteness prevents White people from connecting to humanity,” he said at the event.

Similarly, the resource page on Harvard’s site includes “White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism.”

“White people are socialized to feel that they are inherently superior because they are white,” DiAngelo wrote in the 2018 book.

“Racism is a White problem. It was created by White people,” the book says. “It is wielded by White people, it benefits White people.”

She also wrote that White people are always racist.

“The question is not ‘Did racism take place?’ but rather, ‘How did racism manifest in this situation?'” she wrote in the book.

Other books recommended to parents include “Me and White Supremacy,” by Layla Saad, “Raising White Kids,” by Jennifer Harvey and “The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness,” by Michelle Alexander.

A spokesperson for Harvard told Fox News Digital, “The site was created by staff more than five years ago and was not developed as an official Faculty of Arts and Sciences resource.”

The online page is title “Anti-Racism Resources” and the list of books is included under the “Information for Parents” tab of the Harvard website.

The webpage also lists resources for teaching children as young as infants “anti-racism,” including Kendi’s “Anti-Racist Baby,” which “introduces the youngest readers and the grown-ups in their lives to the concept and power of antiracism,” according to Goodreads.

“Providing the language necessary to begin critical conversations at the earliest age, ‘Antiracist Baby’ is the perfect gift for readers of all ages dedicated to forming a just society” the description continues.

Harvard has faced issues of anti-White racism among its staff.

Gregory Davis, the former Dunster House Allston Burr resident dean at Harvard, was fired earlier this year after a series of anti-White, anti–police social media posts were unearthed. Other posts from Davis supported rioting and looting as legitimate forms of protest.

The posts in question were made between 2019 and 2024, mostly on X but also on Instagram. Davis became the dean of the dormitory in 2024.

“It’s almost like whiteness is a self-destructive ideology that annihilates everyone around it. By design,” he said on X in 2019.

During 2020, when tensions between police and left-wing rioters reached a fever pitch after George Floyd was killed, Davis slammed police.

“You should ask your cop friends to resign since they’re racist and evil,” he said on X at the time.

As rioters and looters wreaked havoc in major metropolitan areas nationwide, Davis defended the chaos.

“Something to keep in mind: rioting and looting are parts of democracy just like voting and marching,” he said on X. “The people WILL be heard.”

In the same year, around the time President Donald Trump tested positive for COVID-19, Davis said on X that he didn’t blame people who wished Trump ill. He followed that post with a second, captioned “But also, f— that guy,” attaching a meme that said “If he dies, he dies.”
