| USDA Cultural Sensitivity Training - Absolutely Disgusting (Posted on 2/18/13 at 10:24 am)
quote:
Judicial Watch today released previously unseen USDA videos revealing a compulsory "Cultural Sensitivity Training" program requiring USDA employees to bang on tables, chanting in unison "The pilgrims were illegal aliens" while being instructed to no longer use the word "minorities," but to replace it with "emerging majorities."
quote:
The sensitivity training sessions, described as "a huge expense" by diversity awareness trainer and self-described "citizen of the world" Samuel Betances, were held on USDA premises. The diversity event is apparently part of what USDA Secretary Tom Vilsack described in a memo sent to all agency employees as a "new era of Civil Rights" and "a broader effort towards cultural transformation at USDA." In 2011 and 2012, the USDA paid Betances and his firm nearly $200,000 for their part in the "cultural transformation" program.
quote:
USDA Sensitivity Training Video Excerpt 2 - "I want you to say that American was founded by outsiders -- say that -- who are today's insiders, who are very nervous about today's outsiders. I want you to say, 'The pilgrims were illegal aliens.' Say, 'The pilgrims never gave their passports to the Indians.'" Betances also asked the audience, "Give me a bam," after these statements, to which the audience replied in unison.
quote:
USDA Sensitivity Training Video Excerpt 3 - "By the way, I don't like the word 'minorities.' How about 'emerging majorities?'"
LINK If you listen to the actual audio, it's even worse. Why didn't anyone get up and walk out of that mess? Link to video: LINK

I'm not sure why these sort of activists constantly want to bring up the fact the pilgrims immigrated here. That didn't work out too well for the indians, hence why some people want to quell it.

Why do the white people who implement these programs hate their own race so much?

Because being proud of your heritage and culture is bad if you're white.

You cannot be an illegal anything unless you break a law. There was no Indian law forbidding entry into the country. In fact the Indians couldn't even write.

I can imagine next year's course: "The Tea Party is a terrorist organization"! And our Congress just writes a check, signs it and acts like they were out of the loop. Sounds like Obama on Benghazi Night.
