A controversial 600-plus page manual used by the military to train its Equal Opportunity officers teaches that "healthy, white, heterosexual, Christian" men hold an unfair advantage over other races, and warns in great detail about a so-called "White Male Club."
“Simply put, a healthy, white, heterosexual, Christian male receives many unearned advantages of social privilege, whereas a black, homosexual, atheist female in poor health receives many unearned disadvantages of social privilege,” reads a statement in the manual created by the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute (DEOMI).
The manual, which was obtained by Fox News, also instructs troops to “support the leadership of people of color. Do this consistently, but not uncritically,” the manual states.
The military manual goes into great detail about a so-called “White Male Club.” The Equal Opportunity Advisor Student Guide is the textbook used during a three month DEOMI course taught at Patrick Air Force Base in Florida. Individuals who attend the training lead Equal Opportunity briefings on military installations around the nation.
The 637-page manual covers a wide range of issues from racism and religious diversity to cultural awareness, extremism and white privilege.
I obtained a copy of the manual from an Equal Opportunity officer who was disturbed by the course content and furious over the DEOMI’s reliance on the Southern Poverty Law Center for information on “extremist” groups.
“I’m participating in teaching things that are not true,” the instructor told me. He asked not to be identified because he feared reprisals.
“I should not be in a position to do that,” he said. “It violates Constitutional principles, but it also violates my conscience. And I’m not going to do it – not going to do it.”
Pentagon training manual: white males have unfair advantages
HUH! If you were striving to be a success in the military, would you rather be white or a minority? Would being gay or straight be an advantage in your success? Would it be easier to succeed if you were Christian or Muslim in today's military? Would your quest to success be easier or more difficult if you were a woman???
I guess the report is accurate. Being of color, or gay, or Muslim or being a woman would be a distinct disadvantage to success in most areas of the US military.

Hard to believe you volunteered into such a bigoted group
"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."

The same applies to many US govt and many private corporations.

let us thank the public school system, sociology 101, psychology 101 and all those guidance counselors and social workers and government regulations that put humans into categories and call it organizing our world 'scientifically'.....
the 'system' labels EVERYONE,,,,SOMETHING
if we think Archie Bunker is dead, we are wrong...we have just allowed 'experts' to rearrange and make new names and labels...
so if they change the names/labels/regulations etc and manipulate human behavior right out of existence, we will no longer be in existence....
go ahead and give up who you are to a few 'experts'....either way they will label you, even if it means you are Mr. credit score 600.....
as for gangs/clubs etc....we have tons of them
1. congress 2. police dept 3. military 4 teachers unions 5. 1%ers 6. catholics etc etc etc.........
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
STOP BEING GOOD DEMOCRATS---STOP BEING GOOD REPUBLICANS--START BEING GOOD AMERICANS

Of course because we are an evil nation that needs government intervention to force companies to put less qualified people in charge. Of course, that makes sense. Why don't we let blind, deaf, autistic kids have their fingers on the nuclear buttons too. It would only level the playing field. For if it does not make sense on the smaller level, one must extrapolate (look that word up on wiki, Box) to the extreme in order to see how flawed the logic is that the left spews.
"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

Cracker Graham sees women, blacks asians and hispanics as equal to the blind, deaf, autistic... In his world only Male White Christians can put their finger on the nuke button... His post says much more about Graham's character than it does about equal rights.
