Yup. It’s happening! The author of the blog Stuff White People Like is coming to UAB.

Never heard of Stuff White People Like? It’s time you check out one of the funniest, wittiest and most observant blogs out there. The author, Christian Lander, chronicles the unique tastes of the white middle class… showcasing our love for all things David Sedaris, organic foods, reggae music, irony, Seinfeld, Apple products, diversity and more.

One of my favorite excerpts is Threatening to Move to Canada:

Often times, white people get frustrated with the state of their country. They do not like the President, or Congress, or the health care system, or the illegal status of Marijuana. Whenever they are presented with a situation that seems unreasonable to them, their first instinct is to threaten to move to Canada.

For example, if you are watching TV with white people and there is a piece on the news about that they do not agree with, they are likely to declare “ok, that’s it, I’m moving to Canada.”

Lander will be talking about the stuff white people like on Wednesday, August 26 at 7pm in the Hill University Center Alumni Auditorium. The event is sponsored by the UAB Lecture Series Committee.

The event is free and open to the public. Call 205-934-8225 for more details.
