The April 5 "situation report" from the Multnomah County Office of Emergency Operations Center announced that the "Emergency Operations Center Equity Officer is hosting a grounding space for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) employees to share, heal, connect, and get grounded in a space that is not dominated by whiteness."

I wonder... Would it be considered a "micro-aggression" to suggest to some "BIPOC" that he'd probably feel "more comfortable" over there in the "haven from White domination" than here amongst all us "White folk?"

The most-absurd aspect of this is that East Asians are also "lumped in" with the "BIPOCs."

Can you imagine a bunch of highly successful medical practitioners, high-ranking computer programmers, and entrepreneurs (who happened to be of Korean, Japanese, or Chinese ancestry) standing around in this "haven," gabbing about, e.g., their children's stellar SAT scores?

Regards,

Amazing. I thought the Supreme Court ruled separate was not equal years ago. I remember the Normal Rockwell painting with the marshalls escorting Ruby Bridges to school, now they DON’T want the whites with them.

Oooh, a hyphenated woman. Color me shocked.

Color me white, so I guess I can’t go.

I love tolerant liberals! They’re so tolerant!

[So white only spaces are provided?]

That would only seem to be fair.

Probably one should not hold one’s breath waiting, though.

Well the plumbers will be happy - with all the business installing separate water fountains and bathrooms.

Oh Goody!

Its so fun! I just read Black Like Me by John Howard Griffin.

Wait until I tell my family! They already want to buy a plantation and hanging out in the 'white free apartheid zone' will show me what its like!

We all can stay down on the farm together, demanding hand outs from the government!

I can extend my whiteness to the most remote corner of the cosmos. There is no escape.

I thought Abe Lincoln already created a ‘grounding space’ called Liberia?

She is whiter than white. If she were any whiter she’d be a polar bear.

Oh, the white guilt she must feel surging up from every nucleus of every atom inside. Trembling as she catches a glimpse of herself in a mirror. Poor thing./s

Rodney King asked can't we just get along. Apparently not.

Liberia predates Lincoln. It's capital is Monrovia, which is a clue as to when it was founded. Lincoln tried colonizing American blacks in Haiti but it did not work out well--many of them died and the idea was given up.

Very few American blacks were interested in going to Liberia--very few had been born in Africa so America was all they knew, and they would not be reconnecting with relatives if they went to Africa. The "Americo-Liberians" were colonizers who sought to rule over the indigenous tribes of the area.

BIPOC could also be an acronym for BIsexual Pieces of Chit.

There are many areas in the USA that morph into areas of non-whiteness. At first, they are mostly white but then the “people of color’ move into the neighborhood and, for some unknown reason, the whites all move out, on to another town or area. Could it be the changes caused by the new citizens?
Schools, stores, malls and even churches are changed. The language is changed. Crime rates increase and nobody dares to go there anymore.
The homes are not kept up and become dilapidated, need paint and need lawn care. Trash litters the streets. Abandoned cars are everywhere.
The, once proud neighborhood is now a ghetto. Housing values drop to the lowest in the state. And the people of color ask “what has happened to us?” It is the “racist” whit man that has ruined our town!
Good luck, stupid Portland, you will need it.
