An activist group is saying that “being nice” is actually “one of the most dangerous tools of white supremacy.”
Race2Dinner – which says on its Twitter profile that it “facilitates painfully honest conversations between white women and BIWOC,” or “Black, Indigenous, and Women of Color” – tweeted that “white women’s “obsession” with “being nice” is a “tool of white supremacy.”
The group also tweeted last week that white people must acknowledge that their white skin gives them privilege, period, otherwise they are continuing “to perpetuate violent white supremacy.”
According to The Daily Wire,
Race2Dinner leaders Regina Jackson and Saira Rao created the organization to offer white women an opportunity to ‘smash’ their ‘white fragility’ by hiring women of color to attend dinner with as they’re guilt-tripped for all the alleged suffering they have caused them by virtue of being white.
The ‘mission’ of the group is to ‘reveal the naked truth about RACISM in America and UNLEASH YOUR POWER as white women to dismantle it.’
…
Rao, one of the founders of Race2Dinner and a former Democratic congressional candidate, “blamed white people for making her life ‘miserable,’ and said that she can’t stand the sight of the American flag,” The Daily Caller reported this summer.
Race2Dinner, which only has 2,414 followers on Twitter and 588 likes on their Facebook page, put on its most recent dinner event this past week called “Swilling Champagne and Trashing Trump.”
Whether the event was a smashing success is unclear, as the event page is locked without a subscription.
The purpose behind the dinners is apparently to serve as a “vital anti-racist event” in making white women confront their so-called “White Fragility.”
The group also argues that the act of criticizing its dinner events is racist, too.
“If you do not like their approach, that is your right,” the group wrote Dec. 15 in a Facebook post, referring to its leaders' critics. “However, disparaging their business is a very clear and dangerous form of racism. Publicly defaming WOC, BIPOC owned businesses, or even verbally bashing them in the privacy of your own kitchen is absolutely racist and perpetuates violence against BIPOC…”
Race2Dinner accuses its critics of defamation and disparagement, when in reality, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But that would make too much sense.
