It costs a jaw-dropping $85,536 a year to attend the University of Chicago as an undergraduate and live on campus, but it’s worth every penny. For that money your son, daughter, or offspring of indeterminate gender can tackle some of the real problems that are bedeviling our society today. They can take a course entitled “The Problem of Whiteness,” which is part of the university’s rollicking “Critical Race and Ethnic Studies” curriculum. Yes, $85,536 for this crude racist indoctrination.

As you might expect, the whole thing is couched in gobs of pseudo-intellectual verbiage loaded with the favored campus buzzwords of the day, but it can really all be boiled down to “white people are evil oppressors, nonwhite people are noble victims.” The university’s 2022-2023 Catalog states that “the BA program in Critical Race and Ethnic Studies (CRES) offers an interdisciplinary curriculum that leads students to examine both the processes through which members of the human population have been constructed as racial and ethnic groups, and the political, historical, social, and cultural effects of this constitution.” See, the idea here is that white people invented racial categories and then used them to oppress those outside the classification they made for themselves.
Studying this, we’re told, “trains students to think critically and comparatively about the varying ways in which race and ethnicity have been constructed in different parts of the world and in different historical periods.” The lurid and salacious part comes next: “Focusing on conquest, subjugation, genocide, slavery, segregation, migration, and diasporas, as well as resistance to these historic and contemporary practices of subjugation, CRES prompts students to examine the political, social, and cultural practices and institutions of minority or marginalized populations in pre-colonial, colonial, and postcolonial settings.” Needless to say, there will be no discussion whatsoever of any “conquest, subjugation, genocide, slavery, segregation, migration, and diasporas” perpetrated by any nonwhite people.
The colonialism in question is all Western: “These populations include, for example, Indigenous peoples in the Americas, Africa, Australia, and elsewhere who have been subjugated to subaltern positions by colonizers in their own homelands, and populations across the Americas who originated in Africa, Asia, Europe, the Caribbean, Latin America, as well as diasporic communities therein who have been subject to enduring global processes of racialization and its material impact.” Without knowing anything about who will be teaching these courses, I can state with absolute certainty that the Islamic conquest of the Middle East, North Africa and Persia, and the subsequent subjugation of the indigenous people and destruction of the indigenous cultures, will not be discussed. There is only one group that is the target here, and they are the majority population of North America, the focus of evil in the modern world as far as the Left is concerned.

This is an absurdity and a slap in the face of real, genuine, race equality.
Those white lib-commie-demo-globalists learn to hate themselves, as they should.
I do not like them either.

I would give 85,000 to destroy those corrupted, evil, racist people in that College that created that comment and that course but you have to be Black and LOVE and ACCEPT all races equally, any takers?
Hardest thing to do is to sit back and do nothing to this type of $6!t, let alone watch the corrupted, lying, evil Democrats destroy our Country while we watch, listen, obey, be CONTROLLED, pay, blackmailed to take a shot of sorts, mislead us to believe the opposite of the current TRUTH…………………………………………………………..but I never said I would sit back are you?

Very nice! I’m sure that studying race and ethnicity instead of science, engineering, political science, management, and other worthwhile disciplines will get these “students” good paying jobs when they graduate, or get them into graduate schools that will lead to a fruitful career.
Isn’t the school one of the founders of the Marxist Weather Underground a professor? Bill Ayers.
Interesting how the FBI agent Cleon Skousen included in his Goals of the Communists this:
#17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
#30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the “common man.”
#31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the “big picture.” Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.

Self-deprecation is one thing (it could even be funny). But self-debasement is a serious psychological and societal disorder, which could sound the death knell of self-respect.

You can get well educated at the public library for $1.50 in late fines and be ahead of the game by nearly $400,000.

The divide and conquer strategy of the leftist socialist is going to blow up in their faces once the mass realize that they are preaching hate. This CRT is wiping out the last 50 years that society has taken toward inclusiveness
