The New York City teachers union is sponsoring a virtual workshop on fighting back against the “harmful effects of whiteness in our lives.”
The United Federation of Teachers’ online seminar, dubbed “Holding the Weight on Whiteness,” is scheduled for Monday, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., and will be hosted by Queens-based psychotherapy consultant and self-proclaimed “Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Leader” Erica Sandoval.
UFT members who are licensed mental health professionals can earn two hours of credit toward their continuing education credentials, which can eventually result in a higher salary.
The workshop costs $25 to attend and will focus on “key cultural themes … related to the Latinx/e communities,” including “internalized racism, privilege, [and] white identity,” according to the union’s website and an Instagram post.
News of the event has some seething — including Council Minority Leader Joe Borelli, who said he was contacted by many fuming teachers and parents wondering why fighting so-called “toxic whiteness” has become a top priority for a lefty union representing a school system plagued by poor performance in the classroom.
“Why is it important for employees of the New York City Department of Education to serve as a form of resistance against the effects of whiteness in their lives, the Department of Education, and the diverse communities in which they serve, which may consist of white students and families?” wrote Borelli (R-Staten Island) in a letter Friday to Tina Puccio, director of the UFT’s Member Assistance Program.

Makes sense.
Two Caucasians invented radio and tv.
Now get off your ass, move away from the tv and get a damn job.

And at the same time, these kids know they are being cheated, purposefully, by people that look just like them.
At least they could be taught to read and write, but no, a few of their teachers -- unfortunately the ones in the union and politics -- harbor an outright fantasy that they will somehow sweep the land clear of whitey someday in a POTA fever dream.
Meanwhile the rest of these teachers are grateful for not having to teach the people they regret being a part of and living with, and having their lack of skills exposed in the classroom.

“Harmful effects of whiteness”
What, like eye strain from the glare?
Most of these Christian things trace back to the magna Carta, then patent law, and were the building blocks for the industrial revolution, and the birth of Britain’s children, Australia,Canada and the USA.
With that, we have accounted for 4/7ths of the G7 and all the progress the planet has enjoyed.
The Marxist Muslim coalition,(obamanites) have nothing better to replace this 800 years of infrastructure.
Today, we are getting pushed on by more of the same in the EU and the UN, whose members hold a monopoly on illiteracy,poverty, unemployment ,undeveloped economies and unstable governments.
Screw these backwards asshats.
They need an education.
Perhaps we should pray for America’s bankruptcy.
Its harsh medicine, but its the only thing that will ultimately purge the leftist parasites from government, particularly in places like CA and NY
obambanites - yes
you might mention
the reformation
God - law / constitution
then
the ongoing disaster
the enlightenment
that spawned
darwin - marx - liberals ( evolution - communism )
Especially when he said ... In five days we will start to fundamentally change this country ... and all the idiots applauded.
How about a class titled “Straight White Men Really are Superior. Learn to Live with It.”
Agree. They disgust me.
Yep, we whities are dangerous. Typical left union lunacy by Masters Degree holders. I guess the degree is useless.
Come and get it. Sadly just saw this happen in a Mc Donald’s. White girl beat the heck out of a Black guy that was a total racist.
These race relation issues should not be happening, two of my best friends ever where Black. This is disgusting. Yes I’m a Cracker.
NY....Teacher’s Union....it should be obvious that this bunch is full of liberal Democrat whitey haters and white apologists. I like to remind them of how the Haitians treated those that subscribed to their black ideology and helped them.
Most of these “effects of whiteness” are not harmful. In fact, they are beneficial to ALL of mankind. (I’m open to correction that almost all of these were done by white people. Also open to additions to the list.)

And about all that conquering and colonizing, don’t knock it if you haven’t tried it. Imperialism rules!
I have an idea. Every white person leave NYC, Chicago, SanFran, L.A., and every other woke victim mentality shithole. Let’s see if those who are left (non whites) can destroy their cities as fast as Detroit did.
I’m so sick of these racists crying race all the time. They are utterly and completely worthless to the USA. In fact, they are a detriment. I think Siberia, China, or N. Korea can use them for grunt work somewhere though.
