Anyone who joins the course will be told that all white people are brought up to hate and oppress people of a different skin colour.

It will use  Buddhism to help Caucasians come to terms with the "feelings of shock, confusion, denial, and guilt that many white people have been dealing with since the election" of Donald Trump.

Anyone who signs up for the workshop should expect a good telling off from a "a person of colour who can hold them accountable".

";The desire to not be racist is not enough, by itself, to stop someone from being racist," organisers wrote.

They added: "Due to their unconscious conditioning by white supremacy, many white people – even when they understand racism is wrong – don’t realise how often they associate white culture and experiences with what's 'normal' and 'good.'

"Learning to recognise toxic whiteness and engage with it can ground white people in what is actually happening rather than filtering the world through the lies of white supremacy."

Organisers denied there was anything racist about starting a course which is aimed only at white people and said that people of colour are better off joining a different course called "Healing from Marginalization".

On Twitter, people slammed the course for being racist against white people.

"It's pretty interesting to see how the self-proclaimed 'tolerant' people are also super racist," one man wrote.

"No surprise."

YouTuber Blaire White was more blunt in her criticism.

She wrote: "So Everyday Feminism has opened a training program for white people to be cured from being 'toxic'?

"F*** you, racist c****."
