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 pushingbecause this is exactly the kind of thought-policing they want to implement everywhere.

Batista was a person of color. He was overthrown by racist white Hispanic Commies.
It's called Brain-washing.
My GG grandaddy was black.

Boo Hoo Hooo!
I want my Reparations!
Bow down to me whitey!
Oh, I feel bad, I want to vote for Obama waaaah waaaaaah!
Who will I sue? Maybe it will be Yooooooou!
Im too white! Boooo hooooo hooo!
What delusional Insane crapola this is.
Hmmmmm, I’ll have to bring up that question to him in case someone else hasn’t already asked it in the sessions he’s had to go through already. I don’t know if they’re finished or not since we haven’t talked about it much. I hate seeing his face turn red as his blood pressure jumps, the whole thing makes him so angry.
I figured out why theyre all so angry up there- the weather sucks
Here in the gay bad city of Oakland is basically like chopper chairs all the time but they dont need to declare it or anything because everybodys just kind of cool and happy and stoned. Street festivals. No Cars. Nobody gives a shit cause its sunny and 80
Several weeks ago, when all the riots and looting started, there was some stuff trending on social media about how it’s never too early to talk to your kids about race. My daughter was just about 4 months old and I thought “Surely that is too early”. But no, according to this nonsense, I am supposed to be reading her books featuring diverse characters, watching TV shows with diverse casts while she’s around, picking baby products with packaging that feature minorities, exposing her to people with different skin tones, and educating myself via reading the left’s new “required reading” list.
Her favorite book features dinosaurs. I’m comfortable with the direction our parenting is going, lol.
I cant go! Im having a root canal done.
In order to fight racism, I will pay no more taxes than my black brothers. To pay more taxes would be “white supremacist”./s
I guess Im OK. Im just a dumb Polock.
I guess Im OK. Im just a dumb Polock.
A root canal with no anesthetic, would probably be more tolerable than this bull Shiite.
I can see how it would. I’m afraid I’d stand up, call bull... and walk out, with a ‘you’ll be hearing from my attorneys’ farewell
I had to attend one of these when I worked at GTE. I learned a whole lot of new pejoratives.
Check the rape stats. Black men rape white women at a rate 30 times that of white men raping black women. Why isn’t anyone reporting on black sexual predators?
As first reported, the invitation for this training was strictly segregated to “white City employees.”
Hilarious.
We are the only ones to sit through this? Still #1
It’s not an object lesson but, a lesson in certain objectives
Cuba is a totally a racist country
I have a friend from Cuba, Black as Black and they nicest guy ever
He laughs about racism in America and has some pretty aggressive stories about Cuban culture toward blacks...
Here's the point, Cuba, China, etc aren't open their country to migrants from Mogadishu or Iran.
I’d definitely get in trouble because I WOULD call Bovine Scatology and walk out.
I’ve been fortunate enough to have never worked anywhere that made us put up with this horse hockey. A good thing because my reaction wouldn’t be pleasant.
Got that whitey? You are not only evil but shouldn’t exist.
