Cambridge University is running a “reverse mentoring” scheme for staff to combat “structural racism”.

Under the project, white senior academics and management staff are assigned one of their black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) colleagues as a mentor in order to encourage “institutional change” at the university.

It is part of a raft of initiatives that the university’s equality and diversity department has introduced over the past year, aimed at boosting diversity and driving out racism.

Earlier this week, it emerged that a PhD student quit in protest after accusing Cambridge of “pervasive” racism.

The Soviets and Maoists were pikers compared to today’s leftists when it comes to re-education camps.

Funny how, when I was teaching, we were warned not to do anything to cause black students to change, like correcting their grammar,yet white students are expected to change completely.

If minorities are equal, why do they have to be taught by white people.Isn't this an admission of the inferiority of minorities by Cambridge?

The fact that clueless white people in Europe put up with this insanity shows that they have lost all power to control their own lives.

Wait, so Cambridge doesn't consider blacks or Asians to be minorities?
