Public University Hosts Workshop for White People and ‘Other Practitioners of Racial Bias’
“[N]ow is not the time to be passive about racism. It is time for EVERYBODY to be uncomfortable about the time in which we live.”
It’s not enough to not enroll your kids in these schools. Americans of every color and creed have to start demanding that their state and local officials cut off all funding.

Public university hosts workshop for whites only — and ‘other practitioners’ of racial bias
California State University, Dominguez Hills is offering a two-and-a-half-hour virtual workshop on Wednesday for white people only … and other “practitioners of unconscious race bias.”
Sponsored by the Dymally African American Political & Economic Institute, the “For White People Only” seminar features Princeton University African American Studies Department Chair Eddie Glaude and (white) anti-racism “expert” Tim Wise.
According to the event description page, the event’s title was purposeful.
“[N]ow is not the time to be passive about racism. It is time for EVERYBODY to be uncomfortable about the time in which we live. What way to bring urgency to the conversation than to remind us what racism really looks like by tying it to a vestige of the past,” the event page reads.
“Being offended by a sign that was pervasive in this society for over 80 years, should bring into focus the events of the past few years. We should be just as offended by our society’s failures to confront these racial injustices. The sign is a stinging reminder of the callousness of racism—the same callousness we’ve witnessed for years.”
This sign said STOP, DO NOT ENTER to generations of excluded people.
It’s happening again today and we must remind society where this can go if we don’t say STOP. People are quick to say they are not a racist, but are they willing to say, I AM “Anti-racist”? Are they willing to actively engage in the kind of discourse, no matter how uncomfortable, that will put an end to racial privilege and racial subjugation? …
This is how we start. Academia is supposed to be the “safe space” to critique and analyze society and social ills.

Comments
These things only happen because too many whites are too spineless to push back.
It’s your job if you push back…that decision is not always just about you if you have a family to support.
The event description page is clearly and obviously racist. Racist propaganda should be illegal for a state university to propagate under CA law. Do any students have the courage to complain?
They demand we become unpaid advocates for their causes.
This has a name.
Same name as if I demanded they become unpaid gatherers of my cotton.
Question for attorneys: Isn’t there case law that actually says that training, especially required training, that proceeds from the assumption of white supremacy is itself inherently racist? Similarly, isn’t there case law that says required training that begins with the presumption that all men are sexual predators, rapists, etc.?
So, who are the other practitioners? Llamas?
