Quote:
Non-White employees for the City of Seattle were invited to an anti-racist training to explore their internalized racism and given tools on how to free themselves from White supremacy influence, new documents show.



Employees "who identify as people of color" were sent an invite to a three-hour optional training, "Internalized Racial Inferiority," in August that excluded White people. It was conducted on Sept. 3 by the city's Race and Social Justice Initiative, radio host Jason Rantz on KTTH reported Monday after filing a public disclosure request for the lesson materials.



The lesson was described as having employees explore "the process which American conditioning, socialization and history leads People of Color to internalize racialized beliefs, ideas and behaviors about themselves, undergirding the power of White Supremacy."

So let me see if I have this right. I'm white, ergo I'm a racist and an oppressor!



I though that CA was crazy, Seattle is really off the rails. Used to be a really nice city! Except for the statue of Lenin. https://seattle.curbed.com/2019/8/27...statue-history

What makes you racist is being of European descent. At least according to the City of Seattle.

Seattle is chock full of pinheads who believe this is promoting equality and "racial justice." The problem is that these braying ignoramuses want to enforce their lunacy onto the rest of state.

Democrats have also put in place their institutional racism at my school too. They teach us that all whites are racist, only whites can be racist, whites are solely responsible for mass pollution and global warming, etc.

They got some jabs in on the Jews too according to the article.

That makes the training "complete" I suppose.

the term racist and racism have lost all meaning at this point, it falls on deaf ears.
