Earlier this week First Lady Michelle Obama urged schoolchildren to monitor their parents for racially insensitive comments because Federal laws can only go so far in stopping racism.
While we dont have any racially insensitive incidents against African Americans to report at this time, maybe Mrs. Obama can assist us with the insensitive and racist actions taken by organizers of the annual White Privilege Conference held in Madison, Wisconsin.
According to Progressives Today, when a white student reporter attempted to enter a workshop being held at the conference he was escorted out of the area because his race was too offensive to other participants, the majority of whom were black.
The reason? An organizer told our investigator: It can feel, for some people of color, unsafe. Not universally like in your group everybody was fine, but for some people it can feel like, oh, I dont
Because I was white they would feel unsafe? our reporter asked as he was led out of the workshop.
Exactly. Exactly, the organizer said. And its not because youve done anything. You seem like a perfectly fine person, but its because of experiences theyve had with others.
A promotional video entitled Lessons on Neo-Segregation says that the White Privilege Conference is an annual gathering of thousands of private and public educators, students and administrators from across the country. Their stated goal is to examine and confront what they see as systemic race-based privilege in America.

now see, I’d have been bolder. I’d have asked them to prove I wasn’t a mixed race black and how dare they confront me, and then back and watch their heads explode
and then ‘sit back’ and watch their heads explode (at the thought - not literally)
They already have via our tax burden to pay for entitlements.
Obama is hiring minorities now to replace the White air traffic controllers, no matter what their qualifications are to do the job. The FAA officials are publicly stating that this is their hiring plan, but privately a few in the FAA are saying that this policy change came directly from the White House.
FAA’s shift in hiring raises concerns
Air traffic controllers are now picked solely from the public, not college programs that the agency fostered

Brittany Powers graduated this month with a college degree that prepared her for a job as an air traffic controller, chasing a dream that began when she was a teenager.
“I was 13 or 14 and our family was driving past O’Hare on our way to Six Flags (amusement park) and I asked my mom what they do up in the tower,” said Powers, now 22, of Plainfield.
But the honors student at Lewis University in Romeoville has already been passed over by her prospective employer, the Federal Aviation Administration, solely because of her answers on a new “biographical assessment’’ that includes questions about how peers would describe the individual and the age at which the person started to earn money.
It’s the result of an abrupt overhaul this year to the FAA’s air traffic controller hiring policy, which for almost 25 years gave preferred status to aviation graduates like Powers as well as former military controllers. Now, the FAA is conducting an off-the-street recruiting process for all candidates. It begins with the assessment, which is open to most people with a high school diploma.
FAA officials have defended the policy, saying ...
