AUSTRALIAN nurses forced to say "Sorry that I'm White"

I believe yours is out of date

So, it would seem.

Personally, I don't see what your problem is with acknowledging the mistakes of the past, Black Orchid. Funny how you seem hell bent on ignoring history...

Ok
Working on that premise
Are all muzzos going to apologise every time they meet a normal human for all the world's terrorism?

What about the abbos apologising for all the whites they killed, and for the race they murdered when they came?

While we are at it, Perhaps all muzzos should apologise for the racist rants and rape committed in their prophets name.

Can't have it both ways
If you want to go down the apology path, there are so many apologies that are owed by the murdering cult that sincerely require apologies.
The muzzos would have to apologise to every single person they meet, every single day.

After all bwyannnnnn I can't see why they can't apologise for not only past indiscretions, but also for the on going attrocities that they commit daily.

When was the last time any atrocity was committed against aboriginals?

OPINION: The idea that Australian nurses and midwives are now required to verbally acknowledge their white privilege is straight up not true, writes Summer May Finlay.

If you have seen the news or had your eye on social media recently, you wouldn’t of been able to avoid the overreaction by right-wing commentators about the Cultural Safety guidelines in the new Code of Conduct for Australian nurses and midwives.

Following a sensationalised report from Channel 7's Today Tonight introduced as, "The contentious new code telling nurses to say 'sorry' for being white when treating their Indigenous patients", Senator Cory Bernardi, Graeme Haycroft (Nurses Professional Association of Queensland), Peta Credlin (Sky News) and political commentator, Andrew Bolt (none whom, I might add, are experts on Cultural Safety), have been promoting the idea that white nurses and midwives are now required to verbally acknowledge their white privilege.

As someone who is Aboriginal and works in public health, let me set you straight up - they don’t.

This is just a complete media beat up, at the expense of Indigenous peoples lives. Yet again.

So where did all this start? The new Codes of Conduct state that care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients’ needs to be Culturally Safe, and outlines what that means in practice. What the Codes ask of nurses and midwives is not anything that even resembles proclaiming, “I acknowledge my white privilege”, before they treat their patients.

The Codes do include, however, at the back, a definition of Cultural Safety in the glossary which is what has caused the furore. In defining ‘Cultural Safety’, the critical component of this concept is an individual’s ability for self-reflection. A self-reflection seeking to understand how their culture and beliefs influence their attitude towards clients of different cultural backgrounds, and how this can impact their practice. This includes acknowledging ‘White Privilege’.

And just so we are clear on what the word “acknowledgment” means, given that it is this word which has caused such a debate, the Cambridge Dictionary defines it as, the fact of accepting something that is true or right. It does not say that anything has to be verbalised for an acknowledgement to occur.

Now, the concept of white privilege is what has really caused all the fuss. So what is it?

White privilege is many things. Firstly, it's a term that gained wide popularity in the 1980s through the work of academic, Peggy McIntosh called 'Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack'. White privilege isn’t something that people consciously use, it's silently pervasive and it permeates through institutions. It’s about the distribution of power based on race. It's about the many privileges society gives white people because their race is considered 'the norm'.

White privilege isn’t something that people consciously use, it's silently pervasive and it permeates through institutions.

It's about believing what is good for white people, must be good for other people. White privilege is built on the foundation that western culture is “normal”, and is therefore better, and other cultures are exactly that - "other".

Perhaps we should say, "Sorry that you are of an inferior gene pool.'

And then of course, because of political correctness we'll lose our jobs/customers. Welcome to the 21st century.
