  • 3 Ways To Decenter Blackness In Your Workplace

    Oh wait, it is 3 Ways To Decenter Whiteness In Your Workplace, so it's not RACIST!

    Sen. J.D. Vance, R-Ohio., condemned an article published by Forbes about how to "decenter Whiteness" in the workplace, and declared his staff is investigating the organization of the woman who wrote it to see if it gets any Ohio money.

    In an article on the Forbes website, "3 Ways To Decenter Whiteness In Your Workplace," senior contributor Janice Gassam Asare, who founded the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion consultancy BWG Business Solutions, talked about how to remove "Whiteness" from the workplace to better cater to people "of color."

    She described "White-centering" as a system that "prioritizes White dominant culture to the detriment of non-White groups and cultures," noting that it "has been given many names including the White gaze and Whiteness as the default." She went on to suggest, "Because White-centering is often left unexamined and unchecked, equity and justice have continued to evade organizations."

    This is just greed. Such "diversity consultants" only want to push racism to sell their books and get speaking gigs, or get hired to teach diversity classes in corporations. And corporations buy into this nonsense because they are afraid of being called racist. It's big business.

    Did you read the link in the article above, where it talks about one guy who is pushing that all of Shakespeare's plays are about whiteness?
    Shakespeare was 'central to the construction of whiteness,' university scholar argues



    This has gotten so out of control.

      They need to keep getting increasingly shrill and inane in order to be noticed.

          it's "one upmanship" - in order to show they are relevant they have to outdo the last person who pointed out something racist. Milk and Peanut Butter have already been done, so why not.... Shakespeare? Yeah that's the ticket. Next guy sees Shakespeare has already been done as well as Columbus and the Founding Fathers, hmmm who's left? Jesus!! Can't top that!
