The Asheville Shuffle
Timothy Birdnow
Asheville North Carolina's plot to fund the race grievance industry via "reparations" and discriminate against all other races is exposed in an article at Revolver.
FTA:
The Left is ever on the attack, ever moving forward even when they are losing. It is this indefatigable characteristic, this ability to wear out the opposition, that makes them succeed. Leftistsare like cats; you can't do anything to them to make them back down.
Now many areas around Asheville are still trying to rebuild from the flood during Biden's Presidency, yet they are going to waste money this way. Then, of course, I'm sure Asheville will seek federal funding for other programs they can't afford to finance.
Lady Justice is depicted as having a blindfold. That includes race in case you missed it.
Asheville North Carolina's plot to fund the race grievance industry via "reparations" and discriminate against all other races is exposed in an article at Revolver.
FTA:
Former US Dept. of Energy nuclear scientist Matt Van Swol dug into the 170-page report himself, and he couldn’t believe what he found.
Buckle up, folks; you’re not going to believe what Asheville, NC, is about to roll out.
Matt Van Swol:
We have a serious problem here in Asheville NC. The county is about to spend $2.9 million in taxpayer funds on racial reparations. I took a deep dive into the 170 page report, and what I found is terrifying. Buckle up, because you’re not gonna believe this.
First up is a "race-targeted housing policy” The plan explicitly calls to "sustain and expand rates of Black homeownership” with "targeted funding” ONLY for the Black populations over three years. Literally a program that allocate benefits by race-ALONE! A clear violation of the 14th amendment, in writing. If you’re a poor white, latino, asian… or any other race, but black… Tough luck. You don’t get the money.
You thought that was bad? Just wait… look at what they want to do for healthcare. One of the recommendations includes a free transportation service ONLY for "expectant Black mothers.” Expectant white, latino, or asian mommas? This money isn’t for you, but you pay for it!
The report is furious that only 14% of total Community Development Block Grants were award to black led non profits… …when less than 10% of the population of Asheville NC is black To eliminate the disparity, the report recommends a "Black Chamber of Commerce” Could you imagine calling for the establishment of a "White Chamber of Commerce”? No, you couldn’t. Furthermore, government entities will support them through procurement and grant funding.
What about hiring? Well, there’s a brand new policy! It is called: "The No Diverse Finalist Policy” TLDR: If there are no diverse candidates, the chair must justify this to HR. This is a real policy they want implemented.
You thought DEI went away? Guess again. If you’re a manager at the City of Asheville, they want you to take a MANDATORY, can’t-get-out-of-it, DEI training course.
Want to be a police officer in Buncombe County? Well. you’ve got to take implicit bias awareness training. Refuse? You’re fired.
You thought it just had to do with adults? No. They want to create direct incentives to treat students differently by race, including tying it to school funding. It explicitly calls for school funding to be linked to "racial equity metrics…” This is insanity.
Then… finally, they just say the quiet part out loud. A shocking admission that all they really want, is more control. By having more control over funding, the Buncombe County government can implement policies…. to promote equity. There it is. The truth.
