Cornell law professor creates online database of 220 universities teaching critical race theory to help parents choose colleges that don't make the 'racist ideology' mandatory

A Cornell Law School professor has launched a new database which lists schools teaching critical race theory, after blasting the practice as ‘very racist’ and accusing ‘anti-racism ideology’ of causing discrimination on campuses.

William Jacobson appeared on Fox News on Thursday night to speak about the site, which he claims will help parents avoid sending their children to schools where they will be ‘indoctrinated’ into thinking that the ‘most important thing in society is the color of your skin’.

Jacobson, the founder of the conservative website Legal Insurrection, launched the site earlier this week and has already listed 220 universities and their approaches to critical race theory, which Fox host Tucker Carlson branded as the notion that ‘some races are inherently better than other races’.

Broadly, critical race theory says that white supremacy is an ideology that is baked into the structures of society and particularly the law - and that to deal with it, everyone who is white should acknowledge how they have benefited from it, or become 'privileged.'

But critics say that it leaves people exposed to the training feeling that they are being blamed for problems that they did not cause - such as slavery and Jim Crow - and that it is itself racially divisive.

The professor claims he started the site after Cornell ‘implemented a pushover the summer to embed what they call anti-racism ideology into every aspect of the campus’ amid the Black Lives Matter protests following the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor.

‘Anti-racism does not actually mean what people think it means. It actually is very racist,’ Jacobson claimed during his interview with Carlson.

I don't have to look at the list of Massachusetts schools to know that every damn one of them...including the two that claim to be Catholic (Boston College and Holy Cross)...are founding members of the Kill All White Men Coalition.

Just more proof of the accuracy of my tagline.

I searched the Professor’s database and here is the list of colleges in Massachusetts:

Amherst College

Bentley University

Boston University

Brandeis University

College of the Holy Cross

Curry College

Emerson College

Hampshire College

Harvard University

Holyoke Community College

Lesley University

Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Mount Holyoke College

Smith College

Tufts University

University of Massachusetts Amherst

Wheaton College

Worcester Polytechnic Institute

Justice Clarence Thomas’ undergrad alma mater Holy Cross is on the list, but I am pleasantly surprised that Boston College is not on the list. Of course Boston University ( not college ) is on the list. That’s were AOC got her worthless degree in economics from.

I counted the list of States where Universities are teaching Critical Race Theory and I notices that the following states are NOT on the list:

South Dakota
Montana
West Virginia

I’m quite surprised since South Dakota has the highest number of schools per capita in the United States ( but then, only 2 State Universities and a few Private Universities ). West Virginia has 30 Colleges and Universities, but none of them are on this list.

There's a great computer store in Cambridge that I visit often. To get there I take the T to a stop near Fenway Park and walk the 20 minutes to the store,which is right across the river.My walk takes me right past many BU buildings,including the School of Theology. Every time I walk past it I wonder if the syllabus consists entirely of exercises meant to prove that God doesn't exist.

Alabama has ONE.

University of Alabama at Birmingham.

Inner-city racial school that it is, but teaches a lot of medical people...

But not Roll Tide or War Eagle. Nor Troy or South Alabama.

I am sure the college I graduated from, Moody Bible Institute, is teaching it.

Say it ain't so, Joe! Moody has been one of the driving forces behind American Christianity since the nineteenth century. However, I noticed that Wheaton College, another famous Christian school, has been added to the list.

When the churches let feminism in, it was all over. We in fathers’ rights advocacy tried to educate the populace about that in the ‘90s to no avail. Many of the church folks were smug about men and traditional families leaving and avoiding them.

Here’s a piece of work by Susan B. Anthony’s girlfriend. Anthony publicly defended it.

Wheaton College and the magazine, Christianity Today, seem to track each other. Both have bought into the "compassionate" world of liberal Christianity and Critical Race Theory. Such a pity.

For 2 years, while I was attending Trinity Seminary, I lived in the house of Dr. John Elsen, who was on the Board of Trustees for Moody Bible Institute, for about 40 years. Very godly man, and also head of the Missions Committee at Moody Church. He died about 3 years ago at age 96. He would be so disappointed in this happening at Moody. He was also a graduate of Wheaton College. So he would be so disappointed in what is happening there. It seems that the profs at Christian colleges are so desirous of being held in high esteem by their secular colleagues, that they are willing to bend their theology to please them. Sounds like the Pharisees who loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.
