Who knew?
A university professor was told that he had to teach that the English language is inherently racist and that had to teach that all White people are inherently racist. The Whites all need to be educated regarding the systemic racism that they practice.
He refused.
They fired him...so much for academic liberties.
This is where we are...Woke is run amok.
I don't have the link but both CNN and Fox News websites ran the story over the past couple of days.
It would have been a smart thing for you to find the links and posted them with your original post.
Would save a lot of upset...
Good morning. You may notice that such reports omit to define terms: racism and racist.
The term "racism" refers to the belief of one race as superior to another.
Racists act from this belief.
In some instances, the crusader against racism and racist practice fails to name the race in question. The audience must fill in the blank: Jews, Caucasians, Negros, Asians, etc.
This onlooker suggests a retort to these crusaders. Define the term "racism" or "racist."
Or when accused of practicing racism or racist behavior, simply ask the accuser, "How so?"
After all, the burden lies with the accuser to prove the accusation.

Just saw again on Fox News...Penn State is the university involved...I clicked on the broadcast too late and missed the professor's name.
He is suing the university over being terminated.

I saw the story yesterday, don't know where. I believe that the administration's position was that correct grammar and punctuation was a tool of white privilege. The prof is suing, but unlikely to prevail in today's courts.

He needs to hire America First Legal to take it all the way to SCOTUS.
He seems pretty committed to obtaining redress through the court system. Wonder how far he'll go, or perhaps how long before he runs out of money for legal counsel.

I've seen it too! It's a fact!

Universities are supposed to be places for higher learning. This is insane.
