The City of Seattle held a training session for white employees called “Interrupting Internalized Racial Superiority and Whiteness.”
So I did a public records request to find out exactly what this means. Let's go through it together ...
First, diversity trainers informed white participants that "objectivity," "individualism," "intellectualization," and "comfort" are all vestiges of internalized racial oppression....
What's next?
The City of Seattle diversity trainers encourage white employees to "practice self-talk that affirms [their] complicity in racism" and work on "undoing your own whiteness."
Then they go through a flow chart that outlines how white people "cause harm to POC," "show up small and inauthentic," and are unable to access their "humanity."
In case some people are wondering if they're "really white," they pass out a datasheet called "Assimilation into Whiteness."
Are you of Arab, Jewish, Finnish, German, Italian, Armenian or Irish descent? You're definitely white. No getting out of this.
As first reported, the invitation for this training was strictly segregated to "white City employees."
The goal is to teach them how they have "complicity in the system of white supremacy" and must be held "accountable to Black, Indigenous, and People of Color."
How do you know when you've successfully "interrupted your whiteness"?
–When you "implicate yourself" in racism. –When "other white people may be angry." –When you have stopped your "white normative behavior."
So far, the City of Seattle has refused to provide the names of the diversity trainers, the budget for the program, or the video of the session.
I'm going to keep pushing—because this is exactly the kind of thought-policing they want to implement everywhere.

Apparently the cure for racism is racism?
The problem is that these people should be hit with a racial discrimination suit the next day, and that hasn’t been happening.
“...The problem is that these people should be hit with a racial discrimination suit the next day, and that hasn’t been happening....”
Exactly. Most folks just want to keep/do their jobs and live their lives. They’ll endure outright utter BS like this in order to achieve that. At some point it gets so bad, there has to be pushback/lawsuit to end this crap. That right there is the worst and there should be a lawsuit over it. The marxists ruling over this city got it coming.
My husband’s cousin was forced to attend some BS meeting on “subconscious racism” where he works. He said there were more to come.
Did they use a racist white board with a black marker or a racist black board using white chalk to show dominance?
So now, after four years or more of immersion-style indoctrination at the university, we fully must expect it to continue through an entire career in the workplace. Seattle is at least culturally fully Marxist. This sounds like North Korea or some Communist country. I wonder what effect this program has on productivity, except that these bureaucrats probably don’t produce anything. But let us consider, “We had to cut trash collection from once a week to alternating weeks only because our garbage collectors spend half their time in Marxist indoctrination, racialist propaganda, and Maoist struggle sessions.”
Is that an optimal use of tax dollars to deliver public services to normal Americans, who oppose Communism?
These leftists have no idea that they are creating a huge number of new racists that just happen to be white. One day they will get a dose of real racism and they won’t know what hit them.
that was funny!
if someone paints over a street vandalized with a yellow BLM lettering with black paint is that vandalism? Or is that being politically and racially sensitive?
Where’s the training for all the worthless black racists?
From the bureau of Justice Statistics: In 2018 there were 59,000 white on black violent crimes.
There were 549,000 black on white violent crimes in the U.S.A.
This is almost a 10 to 1 ratio of more black on white violent crimes than white on black violent crimes.
I’m white. and I don’t give a flying crap about the low IQ black race and their self-inflicted problems.
All of this is moot anyway....Seattle will be nuked by the communist Chinese during the upcoming Third World War.
Why not?
It is a very common brainwashing technique that has been in use for a couple hundred years.
It generally proceeds the mass murder and occasionally cannibalism by a year or so.
Sooooo, black face is ok now???
Only a public employee is stupid enough to take such “training.” Plus they probably get time-and-a-half to do so.
This so sick and such a waste of taxpayer money. Trying to teach people to HATE themselves! Whoever thought this up should be dumped into Puget Sound.
Soon, all comrades will be forced into such mind-scrubbing.
Orwell’s vision is coming true in the 50 formerly free and independent states.
That’s 100% racist.
Hope they class action a suit.
Being White is the new Original Sin.
The penalty for it is eternal punishment and eternal payment.
That is the current path The West is on.
Interesting statistics.
