I'm not reading this entire thread, but this is a ridiculous interpretation. Ever hear of affinity groups?

It's a workshop on diversity.

For part of it, employees self-sort into which session is most appropriate for them: a place for white people to examine their white privilege and deconstruct biases and unjust systems of privilege/oppression, and to self education; or a place for people of color to examine how systems of privilege and oppression have been holding them back and how to better support each other and advocate for themselves.

How unfair would it be to put a white person in an irrelevant session, or a person of color in an irrelevant session? It is not the burden of people of color to educate white people. White people need to educate themselves.

Stop trolling. And baiting.

And this isn’t segregation. You seem to have no education on racism or anti-racism.

It's turning into segregation. I have a lot of education on racism and antiracism. The Left are the ones who claim to be helping disadvantaged people, while tearing down another race of people, the majority still as of 2021.

These things can be well-intentioned, but they lead to racial tension. No one owes anyone anything.

How is it turning into segregation to consider your characteristics and how they advantage or disadvantage you in our current social/political/economic system?

We all owe each other understanding and love.

Tbf the garbage you were trying to pull in this thread about "affinity groups" really isn't any better than the bronz worldview. Very out of touch stuff there. You seem to also support segregation so long as it's done politely and certified by someone who says Latinx.
I know it's "out of touch" with the mainstream, but it's correct. It was also quite "out of touch" to post about Black Lives Matter some 5 years ago. You should become more self-aware of your own bias and approach this with an open mind.
