Normally I just skip right by your screwy stuff, but just for the
helluva it I checked this link out.

At first I thought it was bogus (I mean, really -- a conference
called the "White Privilege Conference"?) but it appears to be legit.

I have to admit, that really *is* one of the most racist things I've
ever seen -- and it's sponsored by a respected university. Scary
that this kind of stuff goes on in America...and with gobs of
corporate sponsorship, no less.

Did you look into the conference beyond the NAME?

I don't know if he did but I did and here's the Mission Statement.

MISSION
The Conference on White Privilege serves as a yearly opportunity to examine
and explore issues of white privilege, diversity, multicultural education,
multicultural leadership, social justice, race/racism, sexual orientation,
gender relations, and other systems of privilege/oppression. It provides
participants the opportunity to get honest about the type of society in
which we live, and the advantages that accrue to some but not others. The
conference offers a means to develop and sustain ongoing work to dismantle
this system of white privilege, white supremacy, and oppression.



Sounds pretty racist to me.
