    “The smart ass interviewer lost me after about 1 minute of his nonsense. He automatically assumes every white person is a racist. The interviewer is a bigot.”

    …the interviewer probably DOES just assume all White people are racist…it’s what they teach in college now, or should I say in indoctrination centers…

    ‘”First of all, “People of color shouldn’t always have to be the ones to educate white people about racism and oppression,” they explain. “We [white people] are taking responsibility for learning about racism, our own white privilege, and how to challenge it as white people.”

    Second, “In order to challenge racism and dismantle white supremacy, white people need to unlearn racism and discover the ways we enact white privilege.” The author[s] of the White Space paper admit, “This is a long, difficult, and sometimes painful process,” but it is necessary, they argue, to have other white people conduct the process, “without having to always subject people of color to further undue trauma or pain as we stumble and make mistakes.”

    Third, they argue that such a view often places them into conflict with other whites who are not ready to admit their racism and white privilege. “A commitment to anti-racist identity and practice as a white person can sometimes mean increased alienation and conflict in our lives, especially with other white friends and family who disagree with us.” You know, your white family members who are not yet aware that they are just racist by nature.

    Fourth, “It’s a space for white people to figure out what it means to be an anti-racist white person and challenge racism in all areas of our lives.” In other words, like the alcoholic who knows that he is still an alcoholic, just one who has managed to quit drinking, the anti-racist white person must understand that even these ardent “anti-racist” whites still harbor latent racism.

    Fifth, “It’s a place where white people can begin to build a new culture of white anti-racism, and learn the skills needed to transform the larger white community.” This is reminiscent of a parable of Jesus in which the Pharisee thanks God that he is not like the sinners in society.

    While the meetings in which whites learn how to purge themselves of their racism, white privilege, and feelings of white supremacy are all important, they argue that they still need to interact with non-whites. “This group is a supplement to, not a replacement for, multi-racial dialogues and activism between white people and people of color.” This is because it is important that white people “give space in their lives to learning from and bearing witness to people of color’s experiences of racism.”’

  3. Disclaimer: I don’t know anything about Wilmot Collins.

    This video, the “reporter” and Collins make the compelling argument that the “refugees” that must be kept out of America are the “refugees” who refuse to assimilate into American culture, i.e. Muslims. ‘nough said.

  4. @ Geoff: Charley Pride worked in the East Helena, MT smelter and played semi-pro baseball out here. He got his singing start in E. Helena.
    All I’ve ever heard was that he was much loved by most. I knew a black family in Helena (before it became Nolackaloonies), the Harrels, who were fantastic, very smart, delightful and hard working folks. The husband worked in the E. Helena smelter and died in a horrible accident there. The mother of the family was a very much beloved primary school teacher in Helena. They had four children, all of whom were talented good citizens too. Two of them, daughters (VERY beautiful young ladies, I might add), went to college in Denver, CO. One developed an impressive career in TV productions. They told their Mother that they were truly shocked by the racism displayed in Denver, much of it by Denver blacks. They had never experienced that in Helena. I was told this by their Mother, a dear friend of ours. Too bad for Nolackaloonies that Wilmot Collins is not of the same character and caliber as the Harrels were.
