The annual White Privilege Conference (WPC) serves as a yearly opportunity to examine and explore difficult issues related to white privilege, white supremacy and oppression. WPC provides a forum for critical discussions about diversity, multicultural education and leadership, social justice, race/racism, sexual orientation, gender relations, religion and other systems of privilege/oppression. WPC is recognized as a challenging, empowering and educational experience. The workshops, keynotes and institutes not only inform participants, but engage and challenge them, while providing practical tips and strategies for combating inequality.

LET’S PLAY...COUNT THE COMMUNIST BUZZ WORDS!

ishabibble’s guess: 22 buzz words, not counting the entire article, just this paragraph. Try your hand and see how much the Lefties have gotten to you!

I'm white, and I'm privileged. I worked for my privilege.

The folks at the conference ought to explore work as an option for obtaining privilege.

Correction to my earlier post.... from the article:

"funding for students to attend the WPC is provided through the small learning communities grant."

Sooo...  I guess this means a Federal Grant, which means Federal tax dollars?

Which means that my aunt in Atlanta is paying for Seattle High School Students to go to Colorado for three days for antiwhite racist indoctrination?

"sigh"

Well hey now, it worked so well for the homosex agenda, so why not? Just look at the names here:

>>>For the first time, Seattle Public Schools are sending students from four high schools to attend the annual White Privilege Conference, sponsored by the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, the University of Denver, Teaching Tolerance, Study Circles Resource Center, The Matrix, Center for Judaic Studies, GLSEN, and many more organizations. Speakers include Geneva Gay, Peggy McIntosh, Joy Leary, John-Paul Chaisson-Cardenas and many others who are actively engaged in anti-racism.>>> Don’t shoot the hardcore Leftists and homosex faggots. String the parents up by the neck for lethal stupidity!!

Anti-racism? AKA let me get your 12 yr. old,(any old gender will do) alone for 15 minutes, and he/she will be an activist forever. WHO IN THE HELL LET’S THEIR CHILDREN NEAR THESE PEOPLE?

In Concord, California, the principal is separating the minority students to give them pep talks before tests to motivate them to do well. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1812185/posts

Why do I have a feeling this White Privilege thing is not intended to motivate white students to excel but to make them feel like shmucks if they do.

The white population has plummeted from 88% in 1960 to 66-70% today, the only privilege whites enjoy in this society is the privilege of being exterminated by Nazis like these. They literally are professional racists, cogs in a genocide machine as concrete as the one that built Auschwitz, with their salaries paid by the state in many cases. If anybody’s privileged in this society it is these Golden Pheasants.

And here I never knew about my privledged status. This means if I choose not to go to work for the next month the bill collectors will never call and the bank will just send me my mortgate slip free and clear?

Why have I been working so hard?

Oh, that’s right. I live in the real world. Not the make believe fairy land liberals live in.

We need enlightened Leftists to educate us Neanderthals about such essential things, and to instill an overwhelming weight of guilt upon our already overtaxed shoulders.

This means if I choose not to go to work for the next month the bill collectors will never call and the bank will just send me my mortgate slip free and clear?

This only happens if you are already a criminal, a savvy activist, a destitute alcoholic / drug addict or an illegal alien....in those cases there are legions of support networks that will rush in to assist you.....no need for you to worry if you fall into any of those categories.

Why have I been working so hard?

Because you have been chosen as one of those who will make the Socialist Miracle a reality.  Your labors are required to atone for your cultural / racial guilt and you are not allowed to complain....such complaints are regarded as Hate Speech and you will be summarily arrested.  You have been warned.  Just as millions of laborers were needed to build pyramids and temples for Pharaoh, so also your labors and silence are required to build a New Marxist America.  So it is written, so it shall be done.

Oh, that’s right. I live in the real world. Not the make believe fairy land liberals live in.

Therein lies the misunderstanding.  The Socialist Miracle is becoming the reality, slowly but surely.  We are spending your tax dollars to send your children to our ideological reedcuation camps..after a few more generations, people like yourself will no longer exist to ask such foolish questions.

Socialism arrives by bicycle....it always has and it always will.

I believe that it's simply an effort to generate more Democrat voters who will support any and every Leftist cause that comes down the Pike as a result of a pathological racial / cultural guilt that has been foisted upon them by these indoctrination camps.

Relying on voter fraud to place operatives into positions of power is all so messy and problematic....it's far simpler to send children to reeducation camps, after which they will automatically vote Democrat and they won't need to bother with voter fraud..

Tired, evil, and breathtakingly effective, it seems.

The Left has always loved to have the imprimatur of Government firmly stamped upon all of their expensive little ideological pet projects....it helps to diffuse many troublesome questions from children who might be moved to query the instructor.

This conference is not about beating up on white folks. This conference is about critically examining the society in which we live and working to dismantle systems of power, prejudice, privilege and oppression.

In other words, it's about beating up on white folks. I have a coworker that will be attending this charade, and getting paid to do so.

Tax-exempt nonprofit, and yet another buried body I could very well drop a dime on. Can't wait to hear what she has to say about it.

And in making darned sure that any white folks who attend will be fully immersed in the cancer of White Guilt, and that all other attendees will be fully 'educated' as to the methods of extracting what they want from white people, and using this 'guilt' as a bludgeon to get it.

I have a coworker that will be attending this charade, and getting paid to do so.

How very sad.  Judging by my father's and grandparents' first-person accounts, the Nazis didn't go this far.  The Hitler Youth was voluntary.  People who didn't want to participate weren't ostracized, fired, jailed, or beaten. 

If your co-worker had refused even after being told that she would be paid, I wonder if her job might be in jeopardy?  If not, perhaps the scarlet letter of Refusenik would be attached to her personnel file by the local Gauleiter/ Diversity Coordinator ?  Surely this would affect promotions, as this Independent Voice would be going against The Collective Will.

Can't wait to hear what she has to say about it.

I advise caution.  Upon return, if her eyes are glazed, her speech patterns stilted or she wants to put what appear to be large organic 'pods' in your car or your bedroom, then you will know that her will was broken and she has Crossed Over to the Dark Side.
