Multiculti education guru denounces showing up on time as part of white oppression (shortened)

Heather Hackman of the Hackman Consulting Group apparently is a big deal in educational circles concerned with denouncing “white privilege.” School districts all over the country spend big bucks sending teachers and administrators for indoctrination into White Privilege Theory. The St. Paul public schools, for instance, have spent millions of dollars on this mission.........

East and Southeast Asia are full of students who believe that mastering the skills of showing up on time, staying to the end of the task, testing well on skills of math and written and verbal expression (including in English!), are not matters of white supremacy but rather of getting ahead in a competitive world that cares about results more than theory. Hackman had better get to work on a theory of Asian Privilege.

Hackman would deny black students access to these skills. And she is openly and deeply committed to subverting the possibility of them acquiring them from other teachers who do not share her delusions.

Cultural note for those of you wondering where he gets this insane idea, it is very much the way of life in many non-European areas. Things happen when they happen - maybe on time, maybe an hour late, maybe tomorrow when everyone can be bothered to show up. If you go with Western ideas of things happening on time and everyone being there at the time designated, chances are the natives will just laugh at your increasingly frantic gestures and state. I have been told this from multiple international missionaries with at least 5 years experience each.

And if you’re noticing a possible connection between this casual attitude toward scheduling and the African nations’ perpetual state of starvation and poverty outside white-dominant areas, I’d say you’re on the right track.
