At the confluence of government tyranny and its cultural facilitators

Your tax dollars are going for this dog vomit:

The Environmental Protection Agency has given $30,000 to a Unitarian church that preaches about “white privilege” and says that America is “structurally racist.”

The Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Boca Raton, Florida, received an “environmental justice grant” for education and training about sea level rise and climate change, the agency announcedWednesday.

The grant is to provide “Replicable and Scalable Community Climate Resilience Building in Two Communities in Palm Beach County, Florida.”

“EPA’s environmental justice grants help communities across the country understand and address exposure to multiple environmental harms and risks at the local level,” said Matthew Tejada, the director of the Office of Environmental Justice.

“Addressing the impacts of climate change is a priority for EPA and the projects supported by this year’s grants will help communities prepare for and build resilience to localized climate impacts.”

The Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Boca Raton is a “liberal religious community” that currently offers classes on “Being White,” and holds town meetings on Black Lives Matter. The church supports same-sex marriage and has a climate-change working group.

“I’d lived through the voter’s rights violence and marches of the late 1960s, but at that time I was wrapped in a cocoon of white privilege so I was not much affected by all of what went on,” wrote Carolyn Brown, a member of the church’s “Healing Justice” program, in its latest monthly newsletter.

“Blacks in our society lead diminished lives due to structural racism, an insidious disease that started eons ay, gives privilege to those of us who are ‘white.’ It’s just the way it is, the standard we have come to accept as normal. Sadly, many blacks have come to accept that standard as well.”

Brown said the church’s leader, the Rev. Ms. Harris Riordan, recently led the congregation on a “privilege walk.”

“In the first 2nd Hour Class On Being White led by Rev. Harris we did a privilege walk … and learned visually where we stand in terms of privilege,” she said. “Most of us fit squarely in the middle group: Neither Highly Privileged (the million-billionaires of society) nor among the impoverished locked out of society folk.”

“Clearly fitting into the privileged majority,” Brown said.

Riordan recently preached a sermon called “On Being White,” where she said she wants to become a “White Ally” to combat the “systemic, structural racism” of America.

“It has been and still is a system holding white supremacy in place,” she said.

“Sometimes when I have soul work to do, my body wants in,” Harris said. “I need to do something, to make something. I didn’t fold paper into a 1000 cranes, this time it was needle and thread. I am making a badge, that when it is done, I will wear on my robe.”

Tax dollars for which you busted your tail end are funding this insanity.

"Privilege walk."

"Soul work."

"Environmental justice."

The UU denomination is reliably on the wrong side of every issue on our society's radar screen.

Another example of how the post-American Left manages to combine silliness, tyranny, disconnect, and cultural influence way out of proportion to its size.
