The Pākehā Project

Radio NZ profiles The Pākehā Project:

A group of Pākehā is embracing the opportunity to honour Te Tiriti, saying that a commitment to tino rangatiratanga strengthens, rather than divides, Aotearoa.

The Pākehā Project is an organisation of tangata Tiriti leaders who run programmes and workshops for Pākehā, aimed at deepening their understanding of the constitutional foundations of Aotearoa. …

The Pākehā Project’s work was focused on helping people become comfortable with discomfort-acknowledging emotions such as grief, rage, guilt, and shame, without using them as a tool for blame, Sinclair said.

“We don’t try and shame people or make people feel guilty, but we know that’s going to come when you start to open yourself up to these stories and start to see the harm that has been caused by whiteness in the world.”

This group is so dripping wet that you could fill up a swimming pool with them.

She said such sentiments only underscored the importance of anti-racism education.

“This gave me a small glimpse into the hate that fear can elicit. And it is exactly why we need programmes like ours and many others that directly address how racism and oppression work.”

I’d say ascribing harm to the the colour of ones skin is a prime example of racism.

UPDATE: It’s a very profitable grift.

You pay $15,000 per person to be taught how bad white people are. I wonder how many government departments are clients!
