WHITE PRIVILEGE CONFERENCE – 2,400 educators learn how to HATE capitalism and Christianity (EXCLUSIVE VIDEO) | Progressives Today Christianity was a favorite target of speakers at the conference.
“So what do I mean by Christian hegemony?” one speaker said. “Um … very simply, I define it as the everyday, pervasive, deep seated and institutionalized dominance of Christian values, Christian institutions, leaders, and Christians as a group, primarily for the benefit of Christian ruling elites. So that’s very similar to how we might define racism or sexism or other systems of oppression.”
Perhaps our most important freedom – the First Amendment right to free speech and self-expression – was also attacked.
“The United States has the most open notion of freedom of speech in the world,” one speaker said. “Many countries in the world, mainly western countries … for instance in Germany you cannot talk about the Nazis. In the U.S. you can talk about the Nazis. Not in Germany. You can’t buy Nazi memorabilia. Not in Germany. In South Africa you can’t talk about apartheid if you want apartheid.
“So even in western, liberal democracies there will be … there are certain things we do not do and do not say because they do hurt people and can lead people, through those words, to commit crimes against other people.
“But in the U.S., because of our understanding of this terminology, we end up all using so much language that is incredibly hurtful and painful … so how will we work on that at the local, state, national and international level?”
The only alternative, of course, is for government to decide what’s okay for us to say out loud, and what we have to keep to ourselves. And that, of course, would mean that all criticism of government would be banned in short order.
So much for democracy and freedom.
