Patented Phil 821 Posted September 16, 2020 Here’s a good question to raise during the session - Which is worse, a white person with subconscious bias or a black person with in-your-face bias? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonS 3,050 Posted October 22, 2020 Awww sh1t. I knew it was just a matter of time before my company trotted out a similar required training: "Inclusion Acumen 101: An Introduction to Uncovering and Mitigating Unconscious Bias" It's been nice knowing you all. I'll probably end up committing suicide once I learn all about my white privilege and racism. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How far are you from downtown? We're about 20 miles away. My wife and I did just close on a vacation house out on the WA coast so we can always retreat there if this area goes to sh1t. The rental community we bought a house in is very nice. I noticed the folks renting there weren't very "diverse". Just white folks and Asians. They even have signs saying to watch out for "joggers". We all know what that means... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

easilyscan 545 Posted October 22, 2020 We had a meeting similar to this about 12 years ago. The HR director started telling us which role we would be playing. I said I wasn't going to participate. She asked me why ? I said don't worry about it. She turned beet red, and I was certain she was going to hit me. She didn't, but about two months later she did hit a male employee and was terminated. Sometimes there is justice in the world. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No. You would be partaking in colonialism then. Just like when Amy Coney Barret adopted those two Haitian kids and took them out of that hell on earth. Besides, black women are queens. All of them.
