With the Hawaiian Island of Maui still a smoking ruin and more than 1,000 Lahaina townspeople missing, Joe Biden’s is wasting time and funding to train FEMA employees on the evils of “white supremacy.”
Instead of helping Hawaiians deal with the devastation of the Lahaina fires, Joe Biden is forcing FEMA employees to undergo training that gravely informs them that evil white racism is “ingrained in nearly every system and institution in the U.S.”
According to the Washington Free Beacon:
While it’s unclear how many of FEMA’s 20,000-plus employees were required to complete the training, internal emails reviewed by the Free Beacon indicate that the agency’s “resilience” division was advised of a requirement to complete one of three three-hour diversity training modules between Aug. 1 and Sept. 28. “FEMA Resilience” works to “help communities across the United States equitably adapt, survive, recover and thrive in the face of natural disasters” and boasts roughly 2,600 employees, according to someone familiar. The division is led by Biden administration appointee Victoria Salinas, the agency’s website says.
The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion trainings contend that the United States is “rooted in extreme, extraordinary violence” and demand participants acknowledge “that systemic racism and oppression exist,” according to screenshots of the training obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
FEMA leaders informed staff of the training in a July email, indicating that the effort is “part of our ongoing commitment to instill Equity as a Foundation of Emergency Management.” Staffers are required to take at least one course to meet their “DEI training requirement,” according to the email.
FEMA’s email says its equity trainings were “developed by the Institute for Diversity and Inclusion in Emergency Management.” The institute’s CEO, Chauncia Willis, told the Free Beacon she delivered the training live to FEMA employees “months ago.” FEMA appears to have recorded Willis’s live presentation to play back to employees, with the agency using its internal “resilience equity adviser,” Christopher Smith, to pause the presentation and direct employees to engage in small group discussions, a video of the training obtained by the Free Beacon shows.
There is no such thing as “white supremacy” in American society, at least not such that it is a real systemic problem.
While racism is probably a human failing that will never die out, the U.S, long ago shed its systemic problems with oppression of minorities.
The left’s need to continue acting as if there is massive amounts of racism in the U.S. is all about keeping their political hold on the black vote.
This constant cry about “racism” is a lie Democrats use to maintain power.
In fact, the only racists in America — and this has pretty much always been true — are Democrats.
