Staff members at Western Washington University in Bellingham, Washington are enduring viewpoint-corrective training sessions in far-left political topics like “heterosexual privilege,” “gender privilege” and “language privilege.”
The monthly sessions are known as “Cultural Competency Staff Meetings,” and require that staff members discuss controversial issues and listen to lectures from experts on topics like white privilege and sexism, according to Campus Reform.
The meeting agendas are largely secret, and staff members have been swore to secrecy. One employee, however, gave an interview to Campus Reform explaining some of the details.
“I felt I would be discriminated against based on my political and religious beliefs, and because I don’t believe the content of the meetings will reduce racism or other ‘isms,’” said an anonymous WWU employee. “The primary theme of the meetings makes people considered privileged feel guilty and minorities feel self-pity.”
Staff members were specifically told not to discuss what went on during the sessions with anyone else. The meetings are barred to the public.
After some staff complained that the meetings amounted to little more than indoctrination, attendance was made voluntary.

I would rather work in a coal mine than work for a one of these camps.
These meetings were put together in order that the Diversity Officer, or whoever is responsible for persecution of employees based race, sexual orientation or political persuasion, can be identified and dealt with at an appropriate time.
Nothing more than a witch hunt for people of traditional moral values.
Reeducation camp. White bad. Gay good. Black entitled. You are worthless. Got it. Bring it.
Imagine what they are teaching the students.
It would be interesting to see how many of those that decided not to attend these indoctrination events find they are not promoted or harassed.
“I would rather work in a coal mine than work for a one of these camps.”
They’re laughing all the way to the bank; they work for Caesar, and will do his bidding.

“Imagine what they are teaching the students.”
Thankfully, many were spared because the indoctrination went into full swing after American students gave up learning anything anyway. Students that don’t bother learning reading, writing, and arithmetic don’t dedicate much time to “White Christians are Evil” studies, either.

Big warning flag for liberal / Muzzie ideology indoctrination. Sorta like the pedophile uncle that tells you not to tell your parents or you’re going to be in trouble...
Ponder the derogatory terms used to describe poor, white heterosexuals for which no-one in the MSM registers any outrage:
Dirty old men.
White trash.
Rednecks.
Trailer trash.
I prefer “crackers”.
Especially the words ..
" ... after American students gave up learning anything anyway. Students that don’t bother learning reading, writing, and arithmetic don’t dedicate much time to ... "
pretty much sums up, for me, my opinion of what has happened to America.
My first wife of 21 years (now home with The Lord) and I homeschooled for 14 years and try as we did, both of us avid readers in school and proponents of generating and influencing that nebulous "imagination", failed to reproduce that in our own four children
I still love to read, but I fall asleep these days unless at a computer screen ... which has broken my back.
I’m sorry to hear that (both that she has passed, and that it wasn’t passed on); I’m getting mixed signals from my own brood (the oldest just entering high school). I push them to aim for high grades because I know the grades are overly generous to begin with (to combat “No Child Left Behind”); if my children had C averages I’d know they’d learned nothing at all (since nobody fails anymore).
I can’t get the youngest to read recreationally (not a problem with the others); hopefully we can change that. They mention a resurgence in comic books, which I was never into but any reading is better than none; one showed me a comic book he borrowed from a friend and it was much longer then the ones I remember as a kid (it was more like a real book than the magazine-types I remember).
LOL!
I had brain-lock - even forgot “Honkies” and I know there are many more.
MAD pretty much set a quizzical attitude to my basic thought processes.
If everything was as satirical as MAD was proposing (and I was an extremely fertile and receptive 13 or 14 year old) ... then the world was worth watching and knowing.
There were no computers then, just newspapers, TIME, my fathers Kiplinger .. etc., but it was all fascinating reading for me.
My wife came from rural Pa but loved the (common among girls at the time) imaginative love and romance first in Barbie, then in Harlequin and later longer novels
Marriage and work took away reading time, but not the desire and love of it.
Mostly we loved the exploration of our own imaginations.
Our children had their imaginations excised almost at birth with modern music making toys, and too early, hellivision.
I played in the dirt with my friends, sticks were guns and cars and a lot of 'em put together was a stockade and .... hours later, we realized we were hungry so we went home ... no one called us.
THAT America is gone ... and so is reading and using the imagination God gives His creation.
I’d love to be put in one of these.
It’s too easy to reeducate half-believers.
I want them to face the enemy.
One of my former companies not only had mandatory diversity training sessions (run by a Central American Communist) but also if you transgressed you could be required to attend a three day intensive “re-education” class.
This was a Fortune 500 company with government contracts.
Formally, these meetings are voluntary. Officially, they are not.
Anybody with a modicum of common sense would know this.
