-aimed to teach white people about their white supremacy-

The University of Minnesota’s School of Social Work hosted a virtual lecture recently that aimed to teach white people about their white supremacy and how to counteract it by using a “12 step” program mirrored after the one used by people in Alcoholics Anonymous.

The two-hour “Recovery from White Conditioning” lecture, hosted through the school’s Center for Practice Transformation, featured therapist Cristina Combs.

Combs is a University of Minnesota alumnus who created the white supremacy 12 step program -after years of struggling to navigate the role and presence of whiteness in her personal, academic, and professional journeys,- according to the university’s website.

The university’s website indicates the lecture can earn viewers continuing education units.

I’ll put my small worked for income up against any black person’s and we’ll see who’s privileged.

There is definitely something in Minnesota water supply. The number of cretins is way, way above the average idiot distribution in human population.

(Bill) "Hello, my name is Bill and I'm white."

(Other 12-Steppers) "Hello Bill...you racist piece of garbage."

Step 13: Fly on an airplane that was manufactured by engineers who believe that math is racist.

“And most black Africans hate the Somalis, seen as arrogant, violent, demanding, and unable to live with their neighbors.”

Not surprising. The few black Africans I know also don’t care for American blacks.

“The university’s website indicates the lecture can earn viewers continuing education units.”


I’ll bet you’ll have to pay a fee to get credit. You might also have to write a short paper. These programs are very popular with teachers. You attend the lecture, pay the fee and get an hour’s credit towards your Master’s Degree which bumps your teacher’s salary up.

Why hasn't Federal funding been pulled from this school? This is an egregious civil rights violation. President Trump, are you listening?

Will I get a certificate saying I no longer have white privilege after I complete the course?

UM is a public institution. Why is this racist allowed under the 14th amendment to single out a group of Americans by skin pigmentation she does not know individually by and assign negative racial stereotypes to them collectively. Seems to me she should be fired or UM should be enjoined under the 14th amendment from violating the equal protection clause by promoting this course.

Self hate destroys self respect. Any white person in the class is a disgrace to themselves and their families.

‘Scuse me. You need to get your mind right.
The first thing I do every morning is to thank God that I’m white. Then I thank him for all the other blessings he has bestowed on me. Then I ask him to let me do his work as he wants it done. God made us, each and every one, what we are. It is up to each of us to takewhat God has given us and make the best of it. If I were a black man I’d feel the same way only thankful that I was black. Let no one come between you and God.

Sounds like anti-whiteness is a new religion. Teaching, and demanding that Caucusians hate their skin color is the height of racism.

No thank you.
