Interpretation: “Whiteness” is evil. People need to be judged on the color of their skin not merit. Also, people of color have to be taught differently than whites because they can’t learn reading, writing, and arithmetic like white kids.
One might wonder how thousands (millions?) of successful people of color managed to overcome all the “whiteness” without DEI and CRT!
Sounds perfect for ISU, not for society, just ISU.
There is ONLY 1 thing to say: UGH!
ISU should probably hire a couple of good EEOC, civil rights lawyers if they hire this guy. Just to cover their if, ands, and buts. There’s a reason DEI hires are down nation-wide.
Just because they’re interviewing him, doesn’t mean they want him. It looks like a CYA to say “hey, we interviewed him.”
I sure hope BNINDY is right……but ISU will hire a progressive regardless although maybe not so bad as this guy. Sad the DEI initiative seems to celebrate black mediocrity and promotes a repressive black culture just when more and more blacks were starting to catch up with whites scholastic achievements. They seem to be relegating blacks to the athletic arena, entertainment industry, and continued dependency. Are progressives afraid that if blacks evolve further they’ll lose control?? Do they want to stifle black societal advancement?
They are the party of slavery!
I believe you will see up to 3 candidates that will come nowhere near what Tarhule offers. At least one of the next two candidates will be female. It would not surprise me if at least one of the next two drops out.
I graduated from ISU and have five close family members who did as well. I quit giving money when they promoted Marilyn Mansion. At that point they crossed the evil bridge. They no longer call me after I explained year after year. Nothing surprises me now.
My donations stopped when ISU hosted an “art” display by Robert Maplethorpe with very graphic depictions of man to man sex and at nearly the same time stopped Anita Bryant from speaking!!
