Why liberal white women pay a lot of money to learn over dinner how they're racist
The Guardian ^ | February 03, 2020 | Poppy Noor

This is Race to Dinner. A white woman volunteers to host a dinner in her home for seven other white women – often strangers, perhaps acquaintances. (Each dinner costs $2,500, which can be covered by a generous host or divided among guests.)

A frank discussion is led by co-founders Regina Jackson, who is black, and Saira Rao, who identifies as Indian American. They started Race to Dinner to challenge liberal white women to accept their racism, however subconscious. “If you did this in a conference room, they’d leave,” Rao says. “But wealthy white women have been taught never to leave the dinner table.”

Rao and Jackson believe white, liberal women are the most receptive audience because they are open to changing their behavior. They don’t bother with the 53% of white women who voted for Trump. White men, they feel, are similarly a lost cause. “White men are never going to change anything. If they were, they would have done it by now,” Jackson says.

White women are the weak link, and the left knows it. That is why you will hear the endless leftist mantra: Women and Minorities, Women and Minorities over and over again. It’s been drilled into their heads that they have to date blacks or they’re racists. That is why the left has waged a 60 year campaign to divide white women from white men. You don’t see the left attempting to divide black women from black men or Hispanic women from Hispanic women, it’s always white women being turned against white men, even if it means turning them against their husbands, sons, fathers, uncles, cousins.

Yeah, but don’t expect to be recognized as someone who helped blacks get of prison, get a job, and caused their standard of living to expand.

If there was such a thing as white privilege, why did Elizabeth Warren pretend to be an Indian for 30 years?

Good point, but not really determinative. Pocahonkey's not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Even if there were white privilege, she'd have claimed to be a minority anyway.

It’s more like Racism Conversion. They think if they do this, it takes away their racism in the yes of their peers. Instead, it just makes it acceptable.

In some ways, White liberals are like slave owners. They feel that blacks are not able to fend for themselves and that they are happier on the plantation. That’s why they sing and dance from joy. They are happy because of the benevolence of the Master. All the Master requires of them is work(voting) and loyalty(supporting their causes). They don’t want to use the lash but an insurrection would hurt everyone so it is sometimes required.

People like the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan have voiced such things which is why you don’t hear much from him anymore.

“...white, liberal women are the most receptive audience because they are open to changing their behavior...”

Changing their behavior to more stupid and self-degrading, apparently.

We know from long observation that leftism/progressivism is self-loathing, self-defeating, ignorant of reality, narcissistic and egotistical.

Why DO so many white women buy into that? Why do they pay $$$ to buy into it? Seems there’s really only one workable answer.

“Everyone is at least little bit racist.”

I think everyone is tribal, from our eons-old core genetic survival program.

They are setting themselves up as the confessors and pardoners in the Church of Intersectionalism. It’s just as lucrative a gig as it was in the medieval Catholic Church. Just ask Al Gore, the Pope of the Church of Perpetual Climate Change.

Can white conservative men sign up to provide counter arguments and make fun of the logical fallacies?

Do Rao and Jackson tell the white women “Make us some samiches!”?

The best con games are where the victims select themselves to be conned!

Inquiring minds are curious; have ALL Native Americans surrendered the “Indian” identifier to descendants of the Sub-Continent OR is this the dreaded Cultural Appropriation?

"however subconscious."

Or however imaginary. A little voodoo to convince you of something that's not really true.

From Informationcradle.com

Saira Rao is a 41-year-old Democrat politician born in Richmond, Virginia. Ran unsuccessfully in the 2017 Democratic primary for a Congressional seat in Colorado, “fighting for my constituents for issues like a woman’s right to choose, reversing global warming and holding the Trump administration accountable.” ...

After her primary defeat, Rao said that she was ready to “give up” on white people, blaming them for her loss. Before her loss, Rao also wrote an open letter to the Democratic party in the Huffington Post, ripping them for not doing enough to combat racism.

The question is why...

I’ll tell you why.

Because they’re f***ing moronic idiots, that’s why.

She should take her Communist white-hating ass back to Mumbai and she should take all her American-hating racist Indian H1Bs and H4EADs with her.
