Noel Ignatiev is ground zero of the "white privilege" movement:
Noel Ignatiev is an American history professor at the Massachusetts College of Art best known for his call to "abolish" the white race, which he defines as "white privilege and race identity." Ignatiev is the co-founder and co-editor of the journal Race Traitor and the New Abolitionist Society. He also has written a book on antebellum northern racism against Irish immigrants, How the Irish Became White. His publisher bills him as one of America's "most controversial" historians. [1]
Ignatiev was raised in Philadelphia, the son of Jewish immigrants from Russia.[2] He attended the University of Pennsylvania but dropped out after three years. He worked in a steel mill in Chicago and in factories manufacturing farm equipment and electrical parts for two decades. Ignatiev was a Marxist activist and helped organize strikes and protests by the predominantly black work force at the steel mill. He was laid off from the steel mill in 1984, a year after he was arrested on charges of throwing a paint bomb at a strike-breaker's car.[2]

He's just another piece of Marxist scum. His ideas have been advocated in several public school systems - here is one:

The Caprice Hollins mentioned in the article is a disciple of Ignatiev. She is half white, half black and has a thing up her behind because her white grandparents didn't accept her mother's marriage to a black man. The father apparently abandoned the family.
More on Ignatiev:
Ignatiev set up Marxist discussion groups in the early 1980s. In 1985, Mr. Ignatiev was accepted to the Harvard Graduate School of Education without an undergraduate degree.
From 1986 until 1992, Ignatiev served as a tutor (academic advisor) for Dunster House at Harvard University. In early 1992, Ignatiev objected to the University's purchase of a toaster oven for the Dunster House dining hall that would be designated for kosher use only. He insisted that cooking utensils with restricted use should be paid for by private funds.
This jerk gets into Harvard without a degree and insists on separation for his group. Now tell me, who has all the privileges?
