$2,500 to prove your not racist

https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...y-racism-women


This is Race to Dinner. A white woman volunteers to host a dinner in her home for seven other white women – often strangers, perhaps acquaintances. (Each dinner costs $2,500, which can be covered by a generous host or divided among guests.) A frank discussion is led by co-founders Regina Jackson, who is black, and Saira Rao, who identifies as Indian American. They started Race to Dinner to challenge liberal white women to accept their racism, however subconscious. “If you did this in a conference room, they’d leave,” Rao says. “But wealthy white women have been taught never to leave the dinner table.”

Rao and Jackson believe white, liberal women are the most receptive audience because they are open to changing their behavior.

Sheer bollocks. Everyone needs to read this book

I'm pretty sure on you can get one for a lot less than $2500 on Craigslist.

Sounds exhausting. I’ll just stick to being a good person. Besides, some of my best friends are black.

can someone lend me a not racist?

But, this ain’t racist?

“But wealthy white women have been taught never to leave the dinner table.”

Core Shot's so edgy.

Ha!

Gotta find where I read all these"wokeness"workshops universities and companies are mandating their constituents sit through are having the opposite affect and increasing bias and reinforcing sterotypes.

I'm not everyone.

Kinda of what I was wondering

if they were real, they'd be paying you first and if you felt they proved you were a racist after; you paid them.

if someone wants to do that dinner, i'm up for it, beats a college class or office seminar where there's no back and forth like a dinner

Says the racist.

I agree -- the university and our culture need to stop pandering to white men.

If seven wealthy white women want to give $2,500 to have dinner with me, I’m in. I will also accept wealthy Asians, Blacks, LBGTQ+, Hispanics, the poor (like they could rub enough nickels), dudes, non-skiers, assholes, pretty much everyone.

^^^ $2500 isn’t enough for me to allow The View to surround me at my dinner table. Maybe if I could be temporarily deafened.

What’s the View? All I ask is they like meat, gluten, and booze or that they can keep to themselves.

The quote requires that I switch to TGR white to read it. You're a racist.

Avenue Q is hilarious

Okay, I think I have a line on a pretty cheap not racist, but it's an "as is" not racist. So if I can't prove my not racist, I'm out my money, but it's a lot less than $2500.

It's just that it's kinda hard not to root for the home team.

Such a thinly veiled attack on women working against racism, trying to make their efforts look stupid without saying so.
I do believe that's exactly what's going on here. Hilarious. "Look at those dumbass bitches," the title might as well say.
Under some bullshit premise of whatever racism might exist, what we have here is a serious case of misogyny.
It has become a go-to for the Fox News class of deplorables to attack women cause, I guess, it's the manly thing to do?

It's The War on Women, pivoting from Hillary to Nancy to any woman or women willing to stand up and do anything.
It's so easy for red boomer type blue hairs to laugh at women and think they're all manly patriotic to participate in the slander.
In reality, it's just a bunch of insecure little boys spouting shit and putting down women to feel better about themselves.
When Gordon Sondland gave Trump a million bucks to show he was an idiot, I didn't see any male bashing by women.
Hopefully, this comment made this thread a PA forum candidate because I believe it to be divisive, right wing propaganda.

Without speaking for the OP I have to wonder if it's more of an attack on the providers or the customers. But on women either way, so yeah.

But I keep trying to figure out if $2500 makes this is a case of "nice work if you can get it" or if it just boosts the expectations such that a $1000 net to the providers is not remotely worth the hassle. 8 affluent customers, 8 sets of expectations. Maybe it works out once or twice but I can't help imagining all the ways this can go wrong. If they've found a way to navigate that minefield and make a profit I'm impressed. I know nothing about planning dinner parties, though; maybe I'm easily impressed.

There's clearly catering and room rental in the $2500, that probably takes up most of it. Think harder. Why are you seeing this headline? Why does it make you feel the way you feel when you read it? Those are the real questions. Not being flip, but I kinda thought everybody knew we look at the world through a lens, now.

Yeah, I thought so, too. Kind of took it for granted you might say, which really takes most any feeling right out of it for me. Headlines and conspiracy theories were weaponized long ago, so I kinda yawned at the whole thing until I tried to put myself in the entrepreneurs' shoes. Would I be willing to do that? Hard pass. Good luck to them.
