Oh, Joy: Seattle City-Run Class Will Teach Citizens about "White Fragility"

Taxpayer funded, baby.

A city-run class will be available to residents of Seattle if they want to learn about "white fragility." The course will teach attendees about why they can't handle issues of race.


Lecturer Robin DiAngelo, who coined the term, is teaching the taxpayer-funded class for the city Office of Arts and Culture. She defines white fragility as "a state in which even a minimum amount of racial stress becomes intolerable, triggering a range of defensive moves."

...

The Office of Arts and Culture is funded to the tune of $8.3M of taxpayer dollars. There will be two 4-hour classes, on held on August 17 and one on September 7.

20 Here's Seattle's little secret....most of the minorities, which are not many, live in Taco-Ma. The town is as white as Hillary's face when she's spazzin'

-----------------

No surprise there. In recent months (can't believe it's taken me this long) I've come to realize that it's guilt-ridden whites who are the problem. Any number of them vote on behalf of (as they think) their little brown and gay brothers. That's why the key to conservative (until we find a better term) victory isn't so much getting Black Brown and gay votes -- it's showing white liberals that Blacks Browns and gays are voting conservative and liking it.

71 Willowed from below.

A poster was talking about the hacked Soros emails which indicate Soros lobbied Obama to bring in Syrian refugees.

Heard this on Breitbart the other night. Apparently, Chobani yogurt is owned by a Turkish nationalist. In Idaho, Chobani has the US yogurt plant. They are now getting employees via the US government in the form of resettled Syrian refugees.

The kicker? The refugees are being paid minimum wage by Chobani and the rest of their wage, another $7.25 per hour, is being paid to Chobani by the US government. That brings them up to the standard $15 an hour Chobani pays it's employees. However, Chobani is no longer hiring any US citizens or the Mexican's it used to hire, because they would then have to pay them out of their own income. Instead the sweet deal they have means they have workers who are being paid by the government.

No more Chobani for me....

I wonder why that could happen. Do you think it might have something to do with the fact that you're telling a group of people that they're bad and they should feel bad for no other reason than the color of their skin? Might people become defensive when accused of an original sin of which they cannot be absolved?

105 Well white folk in Seattle are pretty fragile, it is well known that they blister and burn when exposed to sunlight, their favorite mexican food is soup, and they are easily stressed when deprived of teriyaki served in a bowl. They are prone to outbreaks of lunacy and are convinced that Eastern Washington is inhabited by cannibals and even get the vapors at the prospect of a drive to Tacoma, so I suspect this course might have some utility..

106 81 "She defines white fragility as "a state in which even a minimum amount of racial stress becomes intolerable, triggering a range of defensive moves."


--


I wonder why that could happen. Do you think it might have something to do with the fact that you're telling a group of people that they're bad and they should feel bad for no other reason than the color of their skin? Might people become defensive when accused of an original sin of which they cannot be absolved?

Yes... the defensive move of defending themselves against the charge of RAAAAACISM.

126 President Barack Obamas deputies will insert a rule in federal regulations on Friday to prevent federal facilities from operating single-sex bathrooms.
The rule in the Federal Register of regulations will open up thousands of bathrooms in federally operated buildings to employees and visitors who claim on any given day to be transgender members of the opposite sex.

Will this apply to the Military also?

Posted by: Nevergiveup at August 18, 2016 04:23 PM (Ozsfq)

Nevergiveup, the Obama administration yesterday sent down an edict that any homeless shelter in the US that receives federal funding may NOT discriminate against transgender individuals. So if your homeless shelter has a dorm for women and children , and a man shows up saying he's a woman, you must put him with the ladies.

What every homeless shelter needs, more mentally ill homeless people that they cannot use common sense to manage.

Then he rounded the corner to where I was, and in my prep school voice, told him I was perusing dog treats for ones without nitrites.

152 71 Willowed from below.

A poster was talking about the hacked Soros emails which indicate Soros lobbied Obama to bring in Syrian refugees.

Heard this on Breitbart the other night. Apparently, Chobani yogurt is owned by a Turkish nationalist. In Idaho, Chobani has the US yogurt plant. They are now getting employees via the US government in the form of resettled Syrian refugees.

The kicker? The refugees are being paid minimum wage by Chobani and the rest of their wage, another $7.25 per hour, is being paid to Chobani by the US government. That brings them up to the standard $15 an hour Chobani pays it's employees. However, Chobani is no longer hiring any US citizens or the Mexican's it used to hire, because they would then have to pay them out of their own income. Instead the sweet deal they have means they have workers who are being paid by the government.

No more Chobani for me....

2. Whites can't possibly understand what it it's like to be white, and men can't possibly understand what it's like to be men. Minorities and women, respectively, are the experts on these things.

225 Related:
Last year the Denver Public Schools held a screenings of the movie "I'm not a racist, am I?" which they incorporated into their curriculum. The movie chronicles a class who discussed racism over the course of a year (IIRC) - so major black./white issues, etc. Had a friend who attended one screening, and when the opened it up to comments/Q and A, this was the first comment made by a parent:

"Oh, I thought this would be more about how bigoted Christians are. I really hate those people."


I'm going to make a bold prediction that this class on white fragility will be just as effective as that movie in (not) teaching people about tolerating others.

Policies, practices and procedures, both intentional and inadvertent, have resulted in unequal access to education, housing, transportation, healthy food, cultural spaces, and countless other resources for African, Black, Latino(a), Asian, Pacific Islander, Arab, and Native American communities and artists. This systemic, unequal access to opportunity has resulted in generations of unjust and in equitable outcomes for communities of color. The result is an ongoing pattern of oppression and structural racism.

Well, in Lefty-speak, "tolerance" = accepting without judgement and sometimes celebrating, even if it violates your religious conscience.

In the case of that screening, my friend was just amazed that after watching a hour long movie about not hating people who are not like you that a woman would stand in front of a crowd and make a statement like that. Boggles the mind.

And THIS is part of the beauty of the much maligned Electoral College.
Commiefornia can go all fraud all the time and only cheat the system out of 55 electoral votes. In a popular-vote election, massive fraud in a populous state can tip the entire result, not just 1/50th.

Posted by: Jay Guevara
--------

Yeah, I've probably put a target on my back, just fired off an email to woman (may I presume that) who runs Seattle's Art & Culture thingie:

Dear Ms. Hsieh:


While perusing your web site in search of information regarding 'White Fragility', I came across this:
-
"Policies, practices and procedures, both intentional and inadvertent, have resulted in unequal access to education, housing, transportation, healthy food, cultural spaces, and countless other resources for African, Black, Latino(a), Asian, Pacific Islander, Arab, and Native American communities and artists. This systemic, unequal access to opportunity has resulted in generations of unjust and in equitable outcomes for communities of color. The result is an ongoing pattern of oppression and structural racism. "
-

Now, I understand that as a matter of my innate White Fragility I might not be able to tolerate poor grammar, or poor editing, and for that I must, must, apologize. But, such is the nature of fragility, I cannot help myself.

Best Regards,

474 One little nuance about Darwin is it's about survival of the most reproductively fit, not purely "survival of the fittest".

If something is good for the individual, it doesn't mean it's good for the reproductive success of that individual's species.

Intelligence seems to have been selected for, nature choosing brains over brawn. A lot of traits we myns find hot in the womyns correlates with intelligence and intelligence of the offspring, the traits that are hard wired, and I do mean hard, in our brains.

However, there's a lot of evidence modern tech, medicine in particular, is thwarting natural selection.

477 So we can conclude then that "white privilege" is nothing more than a Darwinian evolutionary advantage endowed upon white people by purely natural processes. This propensity for white people to rise to a privileged position in diverse, multi-cultural societies is simply an artifact of natural selection that was deeply embedded in our genetic code many eons ago. There's nothing here that we need to apologize for.

That's Darwin still winning. Contrary to the stereotypes, big boobs correlate with higher intelligence. Some butt-age, a nice ass, also correlates with higher intelligence (of both the woman and the offspring -- we humans store some damn fatty acid that is crucial to brain development in our asses preferentially).

And, natural blondes are the most intelligent.

So, believe it or not, Blonde with big boobs and a wonderful ass is Darwin at work. It's a beautiful thing.

I did. It makes me laugh My friend who entered the seminary at 16 said their professor used to come in and say "And now we are going to discuss the Holy Spirit" (or whatever) whereupon the professor would si8mp0ly read his notes and there would be no discussion whatsoever. I laughed. He also used to put "H" For heretic on their papers. So I sent the priest a joke from "Grumpy Orthodox Cat" with the caption,

It's "Christ is Risen, not Jesus is risen."

536 For Seattle I blame the relative lack of sunshine and temperate rain forest climate.

Could be the coffee though.

I'm not ruling out proximity to Vancouver yet either.

538 256 The Seattle Office of Arts Culture (ARTS), in partnership with Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) seeks a practicing, published poet for a unique project-based artist residency in the northwest tower of the Fremont Bridge. The selected writer will undertake an in-depth exploration of the bridge and write a piece in response to the experience.

Dammit! I could have done a great job of that.

I'd apply for the grant but I can't think of any dirty words that rhyme with "bridge".

539 I just got a spam call from the Democratic National Committee, if my caller ID is correct. I have never voted for a Democrat in my life, to my knowledge.

This can mean either one of two things:

1. They're very confused

-or-

2. The DNC is so confident they've got this thing sewn up that they now think it's worth it to spend some money in the hopes they can pick off some Republican voters. Like when I started hearing Bill Clinton commercials on conservative talk radio back in the 90s.

Hmmm...

542 I'll buy that the urban-dwelling college educated liberals do seem to have the emotional and physical fortitude of wet kleenex. The rest of us are fine.

I'm done with PC bullshit and double standards. I don't care and can't be made to care. If you can't expend the energy necessary to maintain your own dwelling and food then why should i be expected to spend time and energy so some parasite gets a free ride?

Why should i have any respect for laws that aren't equally applied to everyone else? How're the laws being applied to me differently because I'm white different than Jim Crow laws?

My theory is that it is a fungus growing on the lining of their cranial cavities -- one that thrives in damp, dark climates.
We should have heeded Lewis and Clark's warnings. They concluded that the region west of the Cascades was uninhabitable by humans.

548 Let me get this straight: It's perfectly understandable for black people to riot in the streets because "oppression", but when a white guy says "hey, that doesn't seem right" there's a problem with his "fragility"?

Seriously, are these people trying to build an American Nazi Party? Because that's what they're doing.

549 Seattle is now farther to the left than San Francisco.

It is being overrun by Chinese and Hindu Indians. By the tens of thousands.

The change in just the last 5 years is astonishing.

Note the Vancouver BC housing market has collapsed. All that money is now being funneled into Seattle construction projects. Seattle has more cranes on their skyline than any other city in North America.

Pure socialist, not Sweden socialism, but Venezuela socialism, has taken hold on the City Council and Mayor's office.

Now the gun bans are starting up for next year's election cycle.

I hope the reeducation camps after Hillary's inauguration are more realistic about how long it takes to change our wiring.
