MADISON — Pushers of ‘white privilege’ and “critical race theory” are making a killing on Woke campuses with an insatiable appetite for racist antiracism.
This week, the University of Wisconsin-Madison (where white shaming is a hotter commodity than Badger T-shirts) hosted a virtual event dubbed, “The Pandemic Effect: Exposing Racism and Inequalities.”
The two-day session featured Robin DiAngelo, critical race educator and author of the New York Times bestseller, “White Fragility.” The keynote speaker for UW-Madison’s 2020 Diversity Forum earned a cool $12,750 for her three-hour address, according to The College Fix. That’s $4,250 per hour.
What did DiAngelo do to earn such a hefty pay day? She told the 3,300 people who viewed her discussion, “Seeing the Racial Water,” that the world is mired in systemic discrimination, such as sexism and ableism. Of course the white people tuning in wouldn’t understand, the charlatan asserted.
“If you are white and you have not devoted years of sustained study, struggle and focus on this issue, you will have opinions that will be uninformed and superficial,” DiAngelo said during her speech, The College Fix reported.
DiAngelo, who is white, would not allow her session to be filmed. Her contracts stipulate as much.
Forum attendees also could join interactive breakout sessions on “Witnessing Whiteness at UW-Madison.” They could learn that “Niceness is not anti-racism,” or be schooled on “Liars, Cheaters and Short-Haired Girls: Lessons on Gender Identity, Discrimination, Microaggressions and Beyond.”
It looks like two corporations chipped in to this white-shaming event.
“Thank you to sponsors American Family Insurance and US Bank for helping keep the UW–Madison Diversity Forum free and open to the entire community,” a UW webpage states.
As Empower Wisconsin reported earlier this month, Ibram X. Kendi, maybe the most well-known of the antiracism hucksters, raked in $20,000 in August to indoctrinate Fairfax County, Va. school leaders and administrators. Kendi was widely criticized for characterizing Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett as a “white colonizer.” Why? Because Barrett and her husband, who are white, had the audacity to add to their loving family two children they adopted from impoverished Haiti.
His books are being purchased and taught to students in Madison, Stoughton and elsewhere. And Kendi is scheduled to speak next week at Madison College. The event is sold out.*
There haven’t been enough minutes since creation to account for all the leftists in the U.S.
These CRT seminars are a thousand times worse than anything ever done to black people under Jim Crow. Nobody ever demanded blacks to publicly debase and humiliate themselves in front of others. This is intended to ferment hatred and antagonism in workplaces. I know people who had to attend these seminars and it destroyed the cohesion and morale of the workplace afterwards.
Yeah, US! Who's paying for this nonsense? US! We let the feds unconstitutionally subsidize this brainwash without protest. We and America are the real suckers.
Time to restore our Free Constitutional Republic by dismantling the unconstitutional 80+% portion of the federal government that uses our money to pay these universities to proliferate these lies.
Just think. If byeDUHn/hVrris were to win that would have cost nothing since all education will be free. LOL! Buildings free, dorms free, utilities free, supplies free, teachers free......................
Why don’t they just force the Students to watch CNN to learn about HATE??
Wisconsin is now a province of China or the reborn USSR I guess.
The real message here to employers is to NEVER NEVER again hire a person from U of W Madison.
Particularly for a STEM job. Since 2 + 2 is now 3 or 5 or 7 too many people will die. Building a bridge, a building or making a new medicine requires CORRECT math not racist woke bull s^^t!!!
It’s too late for that. These people are already in HR departments and they’re rolling out these seminars in offices. They’re brutal Maoist style struggle sessions and they’re making them mandatory now.
I long for the House Committee on Un-American Activities and Joe McCarthy on the Senate side.

In the Army, I worked above and below people of all colors, races and creeds. When I joined in the mid-70’s ALL of my DIs were big black guys. Talk about intimidating for a rural farm girl from Wisconsin! ;)
Only ONE possible ‘racial’ problem with a black chick who wanted to fight me for some reason. Me? LOL! She backed down when I confronted her; said she was just ‘testing’ me. *Rolleyes* (No, we were NOT fighting over a guy, LOL!)
I never thought she wanted to fight me because of our different skin colors; I just thought she was a bully and a jerk!
‘Racism’ has been such a lucrative cash-cow RACKET for the Leftists since Jesse and Al ‘invented’ it. Can’t we RICO people who garner ill-gotten gains this way? Hey, Al Sharpton? Pay yo damn TAXES!
I see a disturbing trend.
There is the pushing of critical race theory, blaming white people for everything, “structural racism,” “white supremacy,” etc.
There is also a trend towards defunding police on school grounds.
This is a dangerous combination for a good portion of the student population. They will no longer be safe on or near campus.
OMAR, The Tent Maker sure worked hard on that Halloween costume !!!
Race huckster!
Look up Nazi race theory — the only difference between Nazi race theory and critical race theory is that the names have been changed; underneath it all is the same old demon.
Critical race theory is a seducing spirit and a doctrine of demons that the Holy Spirit through the apostle Paul warned us about in I Tim. 4:1.
