New in PJ Media:
The diversity, equity, and inclusion chief for the Defense Department’s schools is in hot water over what are being termed “racially disparaging” remarks, but Kelisa Wing is no Bull Connor. Wing, who actually describes herself as a “woke administrator,” has indulged in today’s most culturally acceptable form of racism: hatred of white people. She has belatedly drawn the attention of lawmakers for remarks she made back in 2020 and 2021 and is fighting back with an interview published Friday in Military Times. Her defense? She made her hate-filled and racist remarks as a private citizen, not as an employee of the Department of Defense. There, now, don’t you feel better?
Wing said flatly: “No, I did not make disparaging comments against white people. I would never categorize an entire group of people to disparage them.” Really? Let’s see. According to a Sept. 2022 Fox News report, Wing, who has since deleted her rancid Twitter feed, tweeted in June 2020: “I’m so exhausted at these white folx in these PD [professional development] sessions this lady actually had the CAUdacity to say that black people can be racist too … I had to stop the session and give Karen the BUSINESS … we are not the majority, we don’t have power.”
Wing was misusing the Left’s insane lexicon here, for “folx,” as Merriam-Webster, which is now as woke as everyone else, tells us is a spelling that is “used especially to explicitly signal the inclusion of groups commonly marginalized.” So the exhausting white people in Wing’s meetings couldn’t have been “folx,” but Wing had more than enough racist anti-white tweets to maintain her woke bona fides.
Wing frequently expressed exasperation with how insolently white people dared to behave in her presence. “If another Karen tells me about her feelings,” she exclaimed in one tweet, “I might lose it.” When a critic took issue with Wing’s claim that “racism is ingrained in the very fabric of our country,” the diversity, equity, and inclusion chief’s response was succinct: “Bye Karen.”
Now, however, Wing has tried to explain all this away by insisting that she was not speaking in her official capacity: “I’m speaking now as a private individual, about my private free speech from July of 2020.” She also attempted to justify her remarks by claiming privileged victimhood status:
I was in a space where I was the only person of color. The purpose of that was people wanting to reconcile what was happening at the present time. In the middle of that session, someone just called out, “Well, Black people are racist, too.” It didn’t have any context to what we were talking about, and I started to explain to her that yes, everybody can be racist. But we’re talking about systemic racism and how that impacts people and their ability for housing, their ability for a lot of things. That’s something that I thought we were there to discuss….
There is more. Read the rest here.
Hoi Polloi says
In her case alone, racism is a private matter? She should return to being a private citizen. In a non-FJB-ClownWorld, she’d be cancelled. But not in BH0-3.0’s world. Just those of us who never make such racist statements.
bill carr says
One can find out how racist bk people can be by just entering a bk neighbourhood in any American city, that is if you dare! People in African countries are also racist towards each other

I just wish we could export her to share her expertize w/ the Chinese PLA. She could teach them all about the wonders of
DIEDEI and the greatness of having different peoples of ‘color’, such as non-Han Chinese in their armed forces, in positions of control. She can also educate them on racism every lunar new year, when they show African people as primates on TV celebrating those eventsChrisFromCincinnati says
Yet another reason why we need to get rid of Biden and Democrats in the White House. They are hurting our country and making our military WEAK. I’m sure China and Russia, as well as the rest of our enemies see that we are losing preparedness and capabilities, while being distracted by DEI and ridiculous leadership like this.
Who knows… maybe the Chinese Communist Party will contact their buddy General Millie in advance of their attack to give him a heads up.
Lets elect a Republican or a Democrat who isn’t WOKE and let’s clean up the Pentagon and fire these terrible leaders on day one.

There are no dems who either aren’t woke or who would stand up against them. Similarly, there are few republicans who actually stand up to this dreadful destructive ignorance.
somehistory says
I’m just flat-out tired of “these people.” And by that, I mean those who are so “racist” and weak-mindedly arrogant, they refuse to see they are guiltier than the average person who doesn’t see a “race” problem in every nook, cranny, corner, hood, pa and granny.
tim gallagher says
I’m with you, somehistory. I had had enough of these racists who hate the white people of the world. I remember seeing some black academic (in the USA) on one of the programs on Sky News who said that “whiteness is a disease” or some such bullshit and thought, this poisonous toad and her idiotic ideas are actually allowed in a university and she gets paid to spew out such nonsense. I tend to ignore it because I think it is all so stupid and I think people who have half a brain would surely not be buying this garbage. Hopefully, it is a fad that will eventually fade away.
somehistory says
Tim, I agree. It seems they get paid to be stupid and the stupidity is increasing in annoyance.
I believe group think is always a bad idea, and for some time, idiot professors who think more of themselves than is warranted, have forced their students to agree of get a failing grade.
Now, more than ever, people are being forced, in one way or another, to agree with stupid stuff. And the old saying, “you are what you eat,” can be applied to mental food. Ingest stupid, regurgitate stupid.
tim gallagher says
Yes, somehistory, the complete idiocy of some the stuff that I hear academics at universities (supposedly smart people) say, with that one who said “whiteness is a disease” winning the prize for idiocy so far, staggers me. I do think that most sensible people who hear this drivel would also think to themselves, what a load of absolute crap. That these academics are paid to speak such nonsense, and try to poison the students’ minds with such garbage, is a scandal.
John ..Smith says
Tim and Somehistory,
A truthful and accurate exchange between the both of you.
somehistory says
thank you, John Smith. Tim sees things clearly, imo.
tim gallagher says
Thanks, John and somehistory. I think I can see things fairly clearly but I guess everybody thinks that about themselves, but some of this garbage is so stupid that anyone who has half a functioning brain would be able to see through it.
somehistory says
Tim, that is true, but not everyone who has a thinking brain and sees it clearly, also has the courage to speak the Truth about it. Many remain silent out of fear
or because they don’t see the relevance to themselves.
Everyone needs to understand that it should matter to all of us. It is of importance because we live in a connected world…what people choose to do, affects others, for good or for bad.
Pointing it out, even if we are unsure where our voice is heard, is what coulnts.
Don McKellar says
The potrait of evil in America today is a wokester with facist zeal.
Scotsman48 says
I would like to look this silly silly wee lassie in the eye and ask her if she is aware that at least 98% of the things she uses in her daily life today were invented, created or discovered by the white men she appears to hate… Then stand back and watch her empty head explode…
Im old, I have time and I have a wicked sense of humour/humor
E T says
I usually wake up wondering what will offend the dropped on their head freaks today. What will you identify as today? I must admit I preferred the time in Canada when the village idiot and the Prime Minister were 2 different people.
Just be happy sports fans, remember when you were a child, how happy you were going to the circus? Now we live in Clown World, you can see the circus people everyday, everywhere. Yee haw
Now you laugh and the world laughs with you, cry and you cry with all the triggered clowns.
OLD GUY says
Gee does that mean that WHITE people can be racist and promote that as long as they are private citizens. I see a problem with her reasoning. Or is her excuse only good if you are BACK? Bad reasoning on her part and maybe her racist comments should have disqualified her from the job. Maybe we should be checking these people out before we hire them.
E T says
It works both ways, this racism, I have witnessed a lot of racism as a white woman. I travelled to Montgomery, Alabama once, years ago, to see where Martin Luther King gave an impressive speech. I was sneered at, could not get a hotel or motel room, it was a nightmare. I was tired and got so fed up with the blatant treatment, I finally told a man my dog was black, would that help in getting a room. He laughed and gave me a room beside the ice machine. I mostly pitied them for their outward hate and next day left Alabama. I wondered if Martin Luther King was with me would their attitudes change.
I always thought the mailin guy was a terrible racist and still do. He and his minions are doing a great job of dividing, and promoting hate. Remember when Reverend Wright said “God damn America, that should have been a warning to all Americans what the Obama’s thought.
Jesus said “Love one another”.

Whites don’t need your Inferiority complex Missy.
US Whites are a very diverse group and they come from many of the countries of the world. US Whites are also the most diverse group in the country in appearance, hair color, eye color, skin color, etc. Of course all Whites of varying types have a secret hand signal that all Whites understand. There is also a super secret eye signal but I cant discuss that here. It’s a secret.
I don’t understand why the diversity crowd makes Whites look superior every time they relay their inner thoughts and reasoning’s. Considering that for a couple of generations single moms have been the driving force in the black community so perhaps her group needs to do some rugged retrospection.
