Common meaning:

Studying the culture of people who are white.

Hidden meaning of the Equity religion: 

Learning that only whites can have privilege.

Discussion:

Since Equity believers already know that only whites can have privilege, the purpose of White Studies is to identify where the hidden privileges exist. 

The purpose of White Studies programs, as they are currently structured, is to expose how evil white people are. It is difficult to overemphasize how racist and unfair this is. If we had programs labeled Black Studies that were designed to show how evil black people are, you can imagine the outcry, and rightly so. 

It would be reasonable to study all of the wonderful things that white people have done, but pretending that white people are the monsters and saying they’ve done nothing but harm people in the world is ridiculous.
