Louisiana Republican Party wants to ban college study of diversity, equity, inclusion

[ActionJackson]

Whites have been given free money since America was a colony.

You mean the folks who BUILT the colonies enjoyed the fruits of their labor? How dare they!!!

The struggle of class against class is a political struggle. I learned that from Monty Python.

They also taught us that lumberjacks can sing. And be deviants.

 

[Thunk]

the government has been funding discrimination and racism since 1776.

Whatchya been doin' with all them dimes?

I was wondering where you earned your degree.

We get it. You still wish we had slavery.

Diversity-Equity-Inclusion is nothing more than a vehicle to express disgust with America and employ scores of worthless POC's and wimmin, to make the stats of the institution look "good" to the people who look at these things.

I wonder if these same institutions would sponsor the study of the benefits of MERIT, as a criterion for selection of, I don't know, applicants to schools and prestigious programs, jobs, promotions, awards, competitive sports teams, and so on. Contrariwise, the study of Merit could examine all of the harms to society and the affected institutions when they abandon MERIT, in favor of giving preferences to those who lack...merit.

Consider, we are a heartbeat away from having the former Senator K. Harris (D-CA) as the so-called "leader of the free world." And this is what you get when you focus on Diversity-Equity-Inclusion.

Trust me. The LAST thing I'd ever want to own is a black person. I'd find far more value in owning a Retriever.

They didn't really build the colonies.

Moreover,

In 1618, the Virginia colony passed “the Great Charter of privileges, orders, and laws.” Among these laws was a provision that any person who settled in Virginia or paid for the transportation of another person to settle in Virginia would get fifty acres of land per person. “The right to receive fifty acres per person, or per head, was called a headright.” It got even better for colonists as those who “imported” slaves also got fifty acres per slave. The practice was continued by the government of Virginia, for 161 years, ending in 1779. Headrights were not only limited to Virginia. The headright system was used in all the original thirteen colonies. Headrights were the first of many government handouts of free stuff or guarantees providing whites with economic development assistance.

Harris was running the second largest Justice department in the country before she was elected senator. Meanwhile, from 2017-2021 we had an unqualified white inheritance baby runnng this country. DEI was created to stop dumb unqualified white males from being hired.

I'm wondering if you watched a Netflix "documentary" on How The Colonies came into existence? Or maybe a product of the modern "school" system?

Back when true history was being taught ... we all learned that the colonies were extensions of the British Empire. Yup ... white Europeans.

 

[JGalt]

So the so-called founders were marxists?

A statement like that shows how ignorant you are. They weren't "so-called" founders, they actually created a new country, based on God-given concepts of individual liberty and the sanctity of life. Of course, I wouldn't expect you to be able to comprehend that, as well as the fact that Marxism didn't even rear its ugly head until the 1800's.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Whose "bloated budgets and" [what inflammation of] "political tensions on campuses?

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Fine with me. If parents want their children to learn that faggotry, send them to a school in a blue state.

Funny how racist want to run from their history.

True History? Oh you mean His-Story.

Ultimately ... yes. Truth is His Story.

They'd be too needy and too expensive. The cost of hair weave alone could break your bank account.

Glad someone understood my point.

Actually it isn't, when you make it up or omit major parts of it.

 

[ActionJackson]

Actually it isn't, when you make it up or omit major parts of it.

But I said "truth." I said nothing about "omitting" or "making up." Pure, unadulterated truth tells the story of how things actually happened without any bias. That's His Story, history.

Uh no, His-Story is a lie for the most part and that is what right wing, conservatives want taught in school.
