Wales, that gave us Dylan Thomas, David Jones, Richard Burton, and the Mabinogion, has now given us something much less appealing, by spending more than 1.2 million pounds ($1.6 million) on teaching students about that will-o’-the-wisp, “white privilege.” Although all over the Western world, and especially in academic centers, affirmative action rules the roost, and white candidates have learned, to their dismay, that they are now the victims of affirmative action, there are people who still believe that it is not affirmative action, but “white privilege” that needs to be ended if we are to have an “anti-racist” society.
More on this subject being taught in Welsh schools can be found in this February article that unfortunately remains relevant: “Teenagers taught about ‘white privilege’ in ‘anti-racist’ virtual reality metaverse,” by Marcus Donaldson, GB News, February 8, 2026:
The Welsh Government has invested more than £1.2million in a virtual reality educational platform designed to lecture students about “white privilege”.
Described as the “world’s first anti-racist virtual world,” the immersive 3D environment has been deployed in colleges across Wales for pupils aged 16 and above since 2024.
Students navigate through a digital space featuring a central atrium decorated with portraits of civil rights figures, including Malcolm X, Nelson Mandela and Betty Campbell.
The platform contains interactive lessons covering “black feminism” and “decolonising politics,” with one section examining “sociology through an anti-racist lens.”
It also explores how “whiteness” manifests in language, policies and research, and how privilege affects social, educational and workplace settings.
Among the key terms students are encouraged to learn are “patriarchy” and “imperialism,” alongside the concept of “white privilege”, which the platform defines as “inherent advantages possessed by a white person, which means that during their day-to-day life, they do not have to consider their race.”…
But of course white people, constantly bombarded with the need to fight “white privilege,” and facing discrimination through affirmative action, do have to “ consider their race” at every turn.
“During the famine of 1770 the agricultural tax was increased from 10 per cent under the Mughals to 50 per cent under the British East India Company, leading to the loss of 10 million lives in Bengal, equivalent to the Black Death in Europe or the Holocaust,” the platform preaches.
It was the British who replaced the Muslim Mughals as the rulers of India. And it was during the Mughal rule that Muslims murdered 70-80 million Hindus. But apparently this is not to be mentioned; only the white Europeans are to be held accountable for mass deaths in India.
The metaverse also presents various strands of feminist thought, including psychoanalytical feminism, a 1970s theory which draws on the work of Sigmund Freud.
The Viennese witch-doctor is still molding dimwits from beyond the grave.
The platform describes this as a “theory of oppression that asserts that men have an inherent psychological need to subjugate women.”
It adds: “This branch of feminism seeks to gain insight into how our psychic lives develop in order to better understand and change women’s oppression.”…
There is oppression of women, but it’s not to be found any longer among the non-Muslims in Europe and North America. In those places, feminism has swept the board. But women continue to be oppressed in Muslim lands. It is the Qur’an that instructs husbands to “beat their wives” if they so much as suspect them of “disobedience.” It is Muslims who consider a female witness’ testimony to be worth half that of a man. It is Muslims who believe that a daughter should inherit only half that of a son. It is Muslim men who can divorce their wives merely by uttering — or even faxing — the triple-talaq, while a Muslim wife must go through a lengthy and expensive process to obtain a divorce. But don’t expect those Welsh people hoping to raise “awareness” of feminism to mention any of that. It would only encourage “Islamophobia,” and of course we can’t have that.
You can hardly open a history or literature textbook these days, from junior high through college, that doesn’t mention “feminism” and the need to pull down the soi-disant “patriarchy” that is supposedly destroying girls’ sense of self-worth. That may have once been true, but it is true no longer, and hasn’t been since the 1960s, when Betty Friedan, Bella Abzug, Gloria Steinem, and Ms. magazine first entered the feminist lists, and demanded equal rights, equal pay, equal everything — and what’s more, they got it.
Not enough “feminism” is being taught in schools? Oh dear, we can’t let that happen. Ladle out more of that feminism, please, lest society backslides on this most important of subjects.
Here’s glory for you: Wales aims to be “the world’s first anti-racist country by 2030.” And of course, the only kind of racism that the Welsh need to suppress is that of their indigenous citizens, still enjoying their “white privilege.” But how better to end “white privilege” than to practice “anti-white privilege,” which we know by another name — “affirmative action”?
Is it possible that “racism” does not explain differences in outcomes? Which ethnic groups place an emphasis on academic achievement? Is “white racism” to be blamed for the superior performance of Chinese students, as compared to the performances of black Africans? Is white racism what explains the poor performance of Muslims as compared to non-Muslims, or isn’t it, rather, the fact that Islam itself discourages free and skeptical inquiry, and instead encourages slavish acceptance of what is in the Qur’an and hadith?
“This pioneering project has delivered overwhelmingly positive outcomes and reflects our commitments to an anti-racist Wales, as well as reflecting similar offers within English institutions.”
What were those “overwhelmingly positive outcomes”? Have white people in Wales now learned to despise themselves for the “white privilege” they have enjoyed, and are now determined to make up for that condition by instead promoting “black and brown privilege”? And how long would that compensating privilege have to last before “racism” in Wales has been extirpated? Who will decide?
And what if the Welsh government were to decide to stop talking about “racism” and “anti-racism” and “white privilege” altogether, and instead have the schools in Wales teach English, and mathematics, and history, as they once did, in the days some now deem benighted, but we should now call enlightened.

When have Muslims taught about “Muslim privilege?” How about the Chinese doing so or any Asian ethnicity? Have the six Iroquois tribes ever apologized for Iroquois privilege over non-Iroquois tribes like the Lenni-Lenape? What about the Zulu apologizing for what they did to the Xhosa and other African tribes? And so on.
Seems only the West engages in this kind of moronic and suicidal flagellation. This goes back the whole way to the ancient Greeks who, laudably, questioned everything but sometimes to excess. This “feature” of Western Civilization is unique to it and while it allowed for the West to develop more things in more ways than any other civilization in history it also has had this terrible weakness hanging over it to this day. Oh yeah, a two-edged sword if ever there were one.

While the world is watching the United Kingdom self destruct, they double down on Wales.

Pretty stupid government! Also, while I’m no fan of the Brits taking over India, in what way was that or the Bengal famine remotely relavant to Wales?

Doesn’t work ! Stop the nonsense. Try to be kind without putting so much pressure on society.

What what Celtic welsh in Whales are distorting school curriculum teaching white prevalage and history of well know people from the past such black people in North America. Have you forget what Whales history is and why the Welsh ended up in Whales. Clearly obvious the Celts of the British Isles want to now claim superiority like Germanic Nazis. Is this why in the United Sates and other colonial countries Celts who were murdered and persecuted by there Germanic neighbours for centuries now claiming empowerment superiority. Remind them precisely what they are firstly and what type of White. Yes how nazi can that be like superior Germanic people in Europe who want claim there the most superior whites with Germanic Anglo Saxons taking over neighbouring England and Welsh now claiming Whales as to why this there country. All these racist Celtics from Whales Ireland and Scotland they go to colonial countries and some want to be racist like Germanic white nazis. First teach this in neighbouring England first or to Germanic Nazis first.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Except that they’re not claiming superiority: they are claiming inferiority, which is a bizarre trend to behold
James Lincoln says
The term “anti-racist” is absurd.
Somehow, every moment of your life, you have to prove to the world that you are not a racist.
Sorta like having to prove that you are not a camel.
I’ll stick with the Golden Rule…

These leftist, useful idiots are teaching self hatred and working towards the demise of western civilization. All the Islamic, Russian and Chinese propaganda fed to us via social media is ignored while our addicted populations lap it up.
Westman says
Another society works its way toward mediocracy and poverty. Curb your enthusiasm for the creative and hard working white(most are not very white) people. Caucasian does not mean white, rather it is the people whose origin is the Caucasus region which spans between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea.
Russians are Caucasians but they don’t run themselves down with some self-harming DEI/Affirmative Action baloney. It takes poorly-educated, hidden supremists, to roll out the economic carpet of Other Peoples Money, and engage in the racial bias of low expectations. “We gotta give you OPM money, honey, you can’t do it on your own!”
Wasn’t it that former Prince Of Wales who liked to dance about with a sword in Arab garb? Must be catching, like a disease.
Look on the bright side, Wales is tamping down “white” achievers and loading them with dependents. One less competitive nation which will become dependent on China’s goods.
Wales chief exports appear to be lamb, Air-bus wings, oil, and red wine.

In my opinion, this is just another way for those who like to stir up trouble, to stir up trouble.

One way the Soviets and other Cold War era communists were better than today’s woke Western Leftists is that they didn’t hate themselves due to their ethnicity. Don’t want to cite Tucker, but in his saner days, he once noted how someone like Vladimir Lenin or Leon Trotsky wouldn’t be allowed to address the Democrat Socialists of America if they were around today, b’cos they were White
Also, “Prince of Wales” is just the title given to the heir-apparent to the throne of Britain: there is nothing remotely Welsh about them

This is akin to the claim on the right to reparations…per The Daily Caller, Opinion by Harold Hutchison
“Democrat Rep Pramila Jayapal wants reparations for illegal immigrants”
(another ugly evil inside and out)
“Democratic Washington Rep. Pramila Jayapal said in a video posted to social media Friday that illegal immigrants should receive “reparations” for the “trauma” inflicted by the Trump administration.
During remarks on the House floor Friday, Jayapal hinted that a future Democratic administration should pursue criminal charges for those involved in the administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration. The left-wing lawmaker made her comments during a hearing she hosted titled, “Kidnapped and Disappeared: Trump’s Attack on Our Children.”

I am a native New Yorker. But my ancestors were Welsh (actually Cymry to the true Welsh) but that was generations ago. [And no, I did not steal a side of beef!]
Spending money that they don’t have to teach “white privilege” ranks among the stupidest things that I’ve heard in a while. Welsh are the relatively unknown among the Scots, Irish and British. But that is not an excuse to get Wales on the recognition map by irresponsible soending.
The UK, except for the Scots, is screwed by its wokethink. And the Scotch will be screwed if they invite more migrants.
Julie Ann Daniels says
The Welsh are like the Indian code talkers that helped us in war. They may play a special role at some point in sharing info with fellow patriots when the SHTF, because no one understands their language. Probably the most difficult to learn.

WhatEVER the Welsh government might have spent!
Rest ASSURED … it WASN’T in USD!
࿗Infidel࿘ says
The cited GBNews article did mention the amount as being £1.2million, and it was translated into US$ for the headline

Here’s J Allan lauding dhimmitude in the UK again. Appalling.
Julie Ann Daniels says
I can’t believe for one moment that the people of Wales are on board with any of this nonsense. Instead, they are on the same page as the rest of the UK, having their heritage and culture erased by invaders. Many in Wales still speak Cymraeg, which is the ancient Celtic language native to Wales. I hope they spend the money on other things and have a good laugh. Not a chance are the Welsh going to teach their children to be ashamed of their culture and skin color.

Welsh Government Spends $1,600,000 to Extirpate ‘White Privilege’
……………………………………..
Traditionally Wales has been a rather poor country–albeit one with a very rich heritage. So much for “White Privilege”…
Here’s a Welsh song–Ymo O Hyd (roughly “we are still here” or “we are still standing”) It has a few silly anti-Thatcher lyrics, but is basically spot on.
