'A headline in Huffington Post reads “Ethnic Minorities deserve safe spaces without white people”.
Imagine the screams of outrage if you swapped “ethnic minorities” for “white
people” in that headline. Whatever happened to equality under the
law? Who will be put in charge of deciding whether mixed race individuals
are white enough to be white, or ethnic enough to be ethnic? And I
thought we’d got rid of Apartheid! ' Roger Helmer.
‘Safe Spaces’ Really? (or is it just a new version for the Chatham
House Rule?)
Safe Spaces, and the White
Privilege movement-cum-meme that
has spawned this idea deserves a chapter of its own in “The Marketing of Evil”,
IMHO, read on...
“Earlier in the week a newsroom
colleague and I went to an ad-hoc committee meeting on sexual assault policy.
When we arrived we were told it was a safe space, and that we would not be able
to report on anything that would be discussed in the meeting.
We understood the value of these
sorts of events, where people can share their common struggles. Our
understanding let us attend and contribute to the conversation, even if we
couldn't report about it.” (Hmmm! Sounds exactly like a trendy new title for, or way of (mis)using,
the Chatham House Rule, doesn't it?)
Think about it.
Hmm… sounds like you've guessed what it is.
Also
sounds to me as though 'they' (Common Purpose or the USA equivalent) have
thought this through very cleverly indeed and are using NLP to alter ethnic
people's perception.
By calling them 'safe' spaces it implies that safe spaces are needed because of some kind of inherent danger ethnic people need to be protected from - the raging hoard of scary white students all around them? Or else what?
It is highly insulting, actually. What exactly is the danger that blacks/minorities would face if any young 'white' student was to turn up to their precious meetings?
It is ridiculous because this is just about students meeting in a university to discuss issues, not a boxing match or a knife fight - where is the danger that they need to be kept safe from? As if white people are lions or rampaging bulls, or something similar!
Or is it really, actually about the danger that these minority groups are going to themselves discuss matters in a hateful, racist fashion and do not want to be caught out?
Perhaps a black mole needs to record these meetings and expose what's going on...!

Are you aware of the White Privilege Movement in America? Ever heard of it, even?
It is an extremely ugly development, I suggest you look it up if
you have not come across it before. It is all tied in.
In my opinion, it seems to involve
a bunch of white 'useful idiots', certain warped Jews and other hate-filled minority people
slagging off the Founding Fathers of America and their Christianity - They seem to
really hate this and want the individual God-given rights enshrined within the U.S.
constitution chucked out (even though they hypocritically enjoy all the
freedoms that they bestow): http://www.progressivestoday.com/white-privilege-victim-drives-his-corvette-to-the-conference-and-other-hypocrisies-abound-exclusive-video/ (and see SAFE SPACE reference at 4.29)

It's the 3rd sector going totally nuts!
Absolute proof that 3rd sector diversity training is about spreading and promoting aggressive racism
