The terrible burden of white privilege

Embarrassing shit can happen when white folks get woke. Take this for example;

 

Ms. Downs is Superintendent of Schools for School District 74 in British Columbia.  According to the BC sunshine list, she pulled down $158,530 in 2016 for doing whatever it is that school board bigs do, which near as I can tell involves a lot of liaising with other educrats to invent bullshit reasons for why their graduates can't read or write and struggle with grade-school math.

You'd think that if Ms. Downs was truly troubled by her white privilege she'd do the right thing and step down. After all, for a school district that is 60% native Canadian, there's got to be some capable aboriginal candidates around willing and able to do the job.

Instead, we're treated to this fatuous exercise in virtue signalling.

    What is coming around the bend when I am beginning to agree with Peggy Wente lately. In any event, here's the companion piece to "White Privilege":

    1. Read it. Sounds like a middle class yuppie determined to milk the oppression teat for all it's worth. Safe to say the black brothers I shared the shop floor with at Frankel Steel or Irving's shipyard would be way more comfortable at my BBQ than his. Then again, this is not the USA.
