Robin DiAngelo beclowns herself in attempt to smear Sistine Chapel painting as 'perfect convergence of white supremacy'

Race grifter Robin DiAngelo has made a career out of projecting racism at home and abroad. In a recent podcast, she indicated there is probably no better example than in Vatican City.

While DiAngelo is admittedly ignorant when it comes to the subject matter of at least one of the frescoes in the Sistine Chapel, she is nevertheless convinced that Italian Renaissance artist Michelangelo's masterpiece is peak "white supremacy."

DiAngelo, a supposed expert in the evils of whiteness, appeared last month on a little-known podcast entitled, "Not Your Ordinary Parts." After rehashing her go-to claims about "white fragility," DiAngelo told host Jalon Johnson that she frequently tours around with an image of a 513-year-old fresco in the Sistine Chapel, which she figures for a manifestation of identitarian hubris.

"When I'm doing a presentation, I use a lot of images. You may be surprised that the single image I use to capture the concept of white supremacy is, is, um, Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel — God creating man," said DiAngelo.

While DiAngelo was able to confidently assert that the image she routinely refers to during lectures was racist, she revealed she had no idea what precisely she has been talking about.

"You know, where God is in a cloud and there's all these angels and He's reaching out and He's touching — I don't know who that is," said DiAngelo. "David or something."

The fresco DiAngelo uses in her lectures is called "The Creation of Adam," Adam being the key figure opposite God. In the fresco illustrating the creation story from the book of Genesis, God is depicted as an elderly man reaching to Adam with an outstretched finger, ostensibly giving him life.

"And God is white and David's white and the angels are white," continues DiAngelo. "Like that, that is the perfect convergence of white supremacy, patriarchy, right."

"I don't know how you were raised. I was raised Catholic, so I saw many images like that as a child. So I'm sitting in church and I'm looking up and I see these images, I don't think to myself, 'God is white.' But that's, in a lot of ways, it's power," added the race grifter.

DiAngelo has been roundly ridiculed online for her latest comments.

"It's literally called The Creation of Adam!" wrote Reason senior editor Robby Soave.

The Rabbit Hole, fresh off helping to expose billionaire and DEI advocate Mark Cuban's discriminatory thinking, noted on X, "DEI advocates are typically amongst the most race obsessed people you'll ever meet. They mask this obsession by labeling it 'race consciousness' as if that's somehow better. When you are a hammer in search of a nail, all you see are nails; similarly, if you are a Woke in search of racism, all you see is racism."

DiAngelo's knack for finding racism anywhere and everywhere has been a lucrative gig.

Reason noted that the University of Connecticut shelled out $20,000 for DiAngelo to teach at a seminar. DiAngelo, who claims "all white people's households are racist," reportedly bags tens of thousands of dollars just for a few hours decrying imagined racism.
