White Man Can’t Jump (or have culture)

Dave Casper sticks up for all of us culture-less whities

I happened across Visit Milwaukee’s A Guide to Multicultural Milwaukee today and was a bit surprised to find that multi-culturalism, at least in their view, is a concept reserved solely for the city’s non-white residents.

Although the publication aspires to recognize Milwaukee’s newfound status as a “majority-minority” city, apparently doing so means that what is now the “minority” group in the city should be ignored.

Remember, this is all in the name of highlighting multi-culturalism.

I can personally attest to Milwaukee’s rich German, Polish, French and Italian heritage, all of which are ingrained in the city’s personality.
