When you’re too honest during diversity training
by Carmen Van Kerckhove
I’ve always thought this scene, from Comedy Central’s show “Dog Bites Man,” was hilarious. Watch the diversity trainer’s face as the woman describes the dream she had.

LMAO! This reminds me of a recent frank discussion of race among some fellow grad stidents after a few drinks. A white woman revealed to us that “like every woman,” she has dreamt of a” big “black man but not the “thug” type but would never pursue it in real life. When prompted to explain why, she said “I’m not racist or nothing like that let’s be serious about the reality of the situation.” Meanwhile the white guys at the table open-mouthed. The conversation changed course after that.

The poor hapless guy (the diversity trainer) who clearly is not in on the joke at the time of filming. His facial expressions are priceless. Care to share any similar stories anyone? anyone?
CVK?

Stories about receiving diversity training? Or are you asking whether anyone’s pulled a similar prank on me?
If the latter, the answer is no, thankfully!
