Cool "White Privilege" conference

Protest the White Privilege Conference

April 13th marks the beginning of the 12th Annual White Privilege Conference at the Sheraton Hotel in Bloomington, Minnesota.


This event is being sponsored by such left wing institutions as the St. Paul Foundation, the University of Minnesota’s Office for Equity and Diversity, and the Minneapolis YWCA.


The White Privilege Conference offers three days of liberal indoctrination on “white guilt” and “social justice.” This is the same old propaganda that says White Men are responsible for all the poverty and injustice in the world, and the only solution is more laws and welfare programs.


Here are some examples of “White Privilege” from their website:

“White people can go out in public without fear of being harassed or constantly worried about physical safety.”
Reality check: According to the National Crime Victimization Survey for 2001-2003 Blacks were 39 times more likely to commit a violent crime against Whites than vice versa. Blacks were also 2.25 times more likely to commit a hate crime against Whites or Hispanics than vice versa.


“Being able to assume that if you work hard and follow the rules, you will get what you deserve.”
Reality check: Generous social welfare benefits such as food stamps, Section 8 housing, and school lunch programs are available to poor and minorities. Meanwhile, for working Americans, the more they earn the more they have to pay in taxes to support such programs.


“Being able to assume that most of the people you or your children study in history classes and textbooks will be of the same race, gender, or sexual orientation as you are.”
Reality check: Millions of dollars are spent in public schools to raise awareness and teach children about figures such as Harriet Tubman, Booker T. Washington, and W.E.B DuBois. Martin Luther King Jr. is the only American to have his own holiday and the entire month of February is dedicated to Black History. The above claim is simply a part of the liberal agenda to remove “Old White Men” such as the Founding Fathers from American schools and abandon traditional values.


Dear friends, it is time to show the liberal left, that us hardworking Americans are not feeling the “privilege.”
