“Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these [non-white] brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me"
 —Social Justice™ Christ

A Social Justice™ moron with a pound of metal on her face and multiple hair dyes, in Tim Walz’s Minnesota, while operating a food pantry for the homeless funded by the Walz administration, explicitly denied her food to hungry white people on account of their “white privilege,” as any decent modern philanthropist would.

The boss of a Minneapolis food pantry, funded by city taxpayers, has banned white people from taking advantage of the resource.

Mykela 'Keiko' Jackson used a Minnesota State grant to launch the Food Trap Project Bodega designed to help poor and hungry residents living close to the Sanctuary Covenant Church in the north of the city.

The pantry only opened up on July 27 but within months it has been forced to close and relocate away from church grounds after Jackson attempted to block white people from accessing the service, including a local chaplain who complained.

A sign that on the door to the pantry reads how the food inside was specifically for 'Black and Indigenous Folx' only. After a civil rights complaint was made against the pantry by a local, Mykela accused the complainant of 'political violence.'..

[Chaplain Howard] Dotson then filed a complaint with the Minneapolis Civil Rights Commission.

He claims that Jackson told him in person how the food pantry was set up to serve black and indigenous people and was told how he should go across the road to the church's free pantry should he needed it.

As pointed out in the article, Jackson might be forgiven for assuming she would get off scot-free even with her brazen racism because the grant that funded the project to begin with, which Tim Walz’s administration supplied, was “specifically designed to support organizations that work with U.S.-born African Americans.”

Via Minnesota Department of Health (emphasis added):

The Office of African American Health released a new request for proposals (RFP) for the Paths to Black Health Grant Program (also known as the African American Health Special Emphasis Grant Program in state statute). The goal of the program is to invest in community solutions to enhance the vibrant and thriving African American community in Minnesota. This will help reduce the health disparities arising from cumulative and historical discrimination and disadvantages in multiple systems, as well as historical trauma…

These grant program funds are specifically designed to support organizations that work with U.S.-born African Americans. For the purposes of this RFP, Black(s) or African American(s) specifically references the U.S.-born African American population for whom studies indicate that health has been impacted as the result of historical trauma. This trauma includes post-traumatic slave syndrome (PTSS) and epigenetic inheritance.

“Post-traumatic slave syndrome (PTSS)”!

Via Delaware Journal of Public Health (emphasis added):

Many African Americans in the United States have been impacted by structural racism since slavery and continue to experience trauma because of health disparities, economic disadvantages, and segregation… a theory called Post Traumatic Slavery Syndrome (PTSS) by Dr. Joy DeGruy, a social work researcher… explain[s] why many African Americans continue to experience trauma. PTSS is a condition that exists as a consequence of multigenerational oppression of African and their descendants resulting from centuries of chattel slavery. Looking at history and the inherent long-standing trauma that has and continue to plague African Americans can assist in addressing systemic racism and provide an opportunity to look at holistic restoration.

In a prior occupation, I was a grant writer for a nonprofit in Topeka, Kan., that did a similar genre of philanthropic work directed at the poor, so I’ve read through endless pages of RFPs in search of funding sources for various projects not unlike food pantries.

And let me tell you, the proportion of them that explicitly marketed their funding projects to non-whites was eye-opening. And this was in 2014; I can only imagine how much more explicitly racist they got in the post-George Floyd era.
