“So, what can we do?” Ponce asked students. The left-leaning professor then asked his students to think of solutions for his fabricated problem. “It is fitting that a white supremacist of old and a white supremacist of today exist and sit – they’re smiling – in the White House,” Ponce shared during the lecture. Ponce is shown in his lecture standing in front of a photo of President Donald Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions – with a portrait of President Andrew Jackson visible in the background – props he used to set up his racial charge. In late October, the college’s student-run newspaper, the Diablo Valley Inquirer, filmed and posted the video lecture on YouTube, but it did not receive national attention until a conservative website, The Red Elephants, posted highlights of the video over the past few weeks. “Ponce, in his lecture, did not clarify what laws he meant, and went back to discussing what he contended is Thomas Jefferson’s belief that black people are inferior to whites, the video shows,” The College Fix reported. He went on to indicate that everyone from the Founding Fathers to today’s government officials are racists who enforce laws based on white supremacy. “Many of the laws existing – we should be violating those laws.” “And that’s the beauty of the law if you can write it, you can convince all others to follow it – just like all of us do today … when we shouldn’t,” Ponce insisted in his October 26 lecture, according to The College Fix. Ponce’s inflammatory “White Supremacy in the U.S.” lecture that he delivered on the community college campus located not far from San Francisco was recorded and later went viral.
During a guest lecture presented as part of his school’s “Social Justice Lecture Series,” Diablo Valley College (DVC) Political Science professor Albert Ponce reminded students how laws controlled slaves in American history, implying that today’s laws are based on white supremacy and should be broken.
