FLOTUS wants kids to police elders for racism

[ASUG8]

“[O]ur laws may no longer separate us based on our skin color, but nothing in the Constitution says we have to eat together in the lunchroom, or live together in the same neighborhoods,” she said. “There’s no court case against believing in stereotypes or thinking that certain kinds of hateful jokes or comments are funny.”

To address these limitations in the law, Obama asked students to take steps to “drag my generation and your grandparents’ generation along with you” in the fight against racism.

“Maybe that starts simply in your own family, when grandpa tells that off-colored joke at Thanksgiving, or you’ve got an aunt [that] talks about ‘those people,’” she said. “Well, you can politely inform them that they’re talking about your friends.

“Or maybe it’s when you go off to college and you decide to join a sorority or fraternity, and you ask the question, how can we get more diversity in our next pledge class?” she added. “Or maybe it’s years from now, when you’re on the job and you’re the one who asks, do we really have all the voices and viewpoints we need at this table?

“But no matter what you do, the point is to never be afraid to talk about these issues, particularly the issue of race,” she said.

Oprah has a different theory on old folks and their racism.

Maybe we can start by setting up a government sponsored whistleblower hotline, then progress to establishing "rehabilitation" camps.

[CitadelGrad]

how can we get more diversity in our next pledge class?”....... do we really have all the voices and viewpoints we need at this table?

Two questions that have never been asked by anyone, anywhere.

[YoUDeeMan]

And please kids, don't forget to tell the dals of your world to post things about people of other races, because when you focus only on your race's accomplishments, you are not being prideful, you are being a racist pig.

So, let's tear down the HBCUs, the NAACP, the Black Congressional Caucasians....er - Caucus, and get those old folks like Holder to actually arrest any people of any color that would try to intimidate voters. After all, we aren't some damned third world country full of black woods hicks and Muslins, dammit. We're the Goddammned U S of effing A, and we're going to have a whole melting pot of people submitting to the Fed and Group Think...because yes we can! And Change (we're watching your every move, so you'd better change)!

Yeah, Okra will be the first to pull out the card when it's convenient.

Two questions that have never been asked by anyone, anywhere.

Obama asks that question with every cabinet appointee, hence the incompetent diversity hires like Kathleen Sebelius, Janet Napolireno, Eric Holder, and others. Not to mention his attempts to appoint people like Van Jones and Sheila Jackson Lee.

Oddly enough, though, Obama hasn't enriched his inner circle with diversity...they have been a bunch of white and jewish guys.

Consider yourself reported. The NSA knew about your post 20 minutes ago anyway.

I thought diversity was an old wooden ship from the Civil War.

Heh.

I think that NAACP said something similar about the Clippers owner right before they gave him a lifetime achievement award

[Ivytalk]

Meh. So Mamzelle Michelle wants kids to snitch on their parents or crazy grandpas who may not be as "enlightened" as the Obummers are. What a role model.

I think I'm more excited about that fucking bitch leaving the White House than I am about her idiot husband leaving the White House.

Wow...the hatred and paranoia in this thread over just starting a dialogue ...

Yeah she is a dumb cu*t and everyone knows it.

"Or maybe it’s when you go off to college and you decide to join a sorority or fraternity, and you ask the question, how can we get more diversity in our next pledge class?”



That quote is not starting a dialogue...that is imposing an agenda.

Diversity means "less white" to these people. Call it what you want, but the concept remains the same.

Sure, but there's a difference between "imposing" something, and having a dialogue. The mere suggestion of it is terrifying I tell ya!

Again, I hope you have competent counsel whenever your are signing a contract or trying to ascertain the meaning of something.

Asking the question, "Should we have more diversity in our next pledge class?" is a dialogue.

Asking the question, "How can we get more diversity in our next pledge class?" is an agenda.

verb
1.
come to have or hold (something); receive.
"I got the impression that she wasn't happy"
synonyms: acquire, obtain, come by, receive, gain, earn, win, come into, take possession of, be given; More
receive, be sent, be in receipt of, be given, retrieve, regain, win back, recover, recoup, reclaim, repossess, recapture, redeem;

2.
succeed in attaining, achieving, or experiencing; obtain.
"I need all the sleep I can get"
synonyms: earn, be paid, take home, bring in, make, receive, collect, gross



The first example asks you to determine if diversity is important for that particular group.

The second asks you to determine ways to diversify the group.

In other words, diversity is the unstated goal...agenda...of the second sentence, and you have to determine HOW to get to that goal.

Surely, you can see the difference.

She thinks we need diversity. The other sisters are free to disagree. Or should she ask for permission to even discuss it? Regardless she is not "imposing". Unless you're a pussy and feel obligated to agree with everything the FLOTUS suggests.

'Ye gads…an uppity black woman with a microphone says something I disagree with…run for the hills!"

'Ye gads…an uppity black woman with a microphone says something I disagree with…run for the hills!"

You are throwing up smoke screens to cover your retreat.

Regardless of your attempt to deflect, she has an agenda she wants kids to follow. She is using her position to impose her agenda. It is not a dialogue, as you stated. It is her agenda.

One can agree with her agenda or not, implement it or not, but don't try to disguise what it is.

The KKK has an agenda. Hitler had an agenda. Nancy Reagan had an agenda. And they all used the power of their position, or their husband's/member's position(s), to implement their agendas to different degrees.

But by your definition, they were all simply attempting a, "dialogue."
