Woman Demands All-White Nursing Staff: Hospital Quarantined due to bad case of Racism

It's commonly known that white Christians are forbidden to freely associate with each other; yet, the same luxury is actually encouraged amongst minorities. For example, Walter Williams describes some absurdities occurring at elite universities:

What about segregated graduation ceremonies? Vanderbilt, Stanford University, the University of California, the University of Michigan and the University of Pennsylvania are among those that offer separate graduation ceremonies and separate "celebratory events" for black, Hispanic and Asian-American students. University administrators not only condone segregated ceremonies but racially segregated student housing, as well. This "enlightened" policy not only occurs at backwater colleges but at our most elite universities, such as Stanford, Cornell, MIT, Pennsylvania and California-Berkeley.

And here's a site for a counseling service specifically designed for blacks.

At Afro-American Counseling & Psychotherapy Institute, Inc., the Counselor/ Psychotherapist is a product of and continues to be a part of the African-American cultures and communities. The Afro-centric, Afro-Cognitive approach used at AACPI empowers the client by providing a unique corrective experience that is liberating, relevant, and solution-oriented.

Well at least they're HBDers ("Afro-cognitive" must refer to innate cognitive traits unique to blacks, right?). There are innumerable outlets for the "unique needs" of minorities. In any context, they have access to care provided by individuals of their ethnic background and suited to their particular needs (what those are I'm not sure). But in addition to the gross immorality of white flight, how dare white people ask for the same thing? Someone did and it didn't turn out well. In fact, they launched an investigation into her blatant thoughtcrime!

Hospital staff have complained to the Equality and Human Rights Commission after a woman in labour demanded an all-white team to deliver her baby.

The hospital began its own internal investigation and it has now been reported to Equality and Human Rights Commission, which received complaints from hospital staff about the incident and how it was dealt with.

In this age of affirmative action, such a choice might be the most prudent one. But don't worry, the thoughtpolice are on it.

A spokeswoman for the hospital said: “There is an ongoing investigation, which commenced after the incident occurred, relating to medical complications and because some staff expressed concern about the potential for racial discrimination, should such demands be raised by patients in the future.

In my opinion, this women is free to choose her caregivers and if she does so on a racial basis, then so be it. Such a choice doesn't necessarily imply animus, rather it implies a freedom of association. People tend to feel most comfortable with individuals like themselves and the first indicator of such similarity is generally physical. Perhaps this woman is a racist, but if we're willing to afford such concessions to minorities, then why aren't white people given the same outlets? Why is whiteness considered an absence of culture and thus not privy to the same ethnic concerns or issues?
