I don't buy into it either, I was just referencing a class I had to take a few semesters ago. The general theme was that if you're white then you'll never understand and either you're a minority advocate/activist, or your racist. As long as you answered every test question consistent with that logic, you didn't need to pick up the book to get an A.
