Chappie James is turning over in his grave.

Long march through the institutions..leftist zombies infest them and turn them into bloated oozing smelly messes.
the “problem with that is there is a natural power dynamic in higher education, or really in any education, where if the professors are steering you towards a certain way to think, and you buck that, your grade suffers,”
Uh, that’s exackly right
And way worse at the academies where questions are heresy
Hopefully the Air Force cadets will do what I did to get through the “cultural diversity” requirement at college: smile, say “Yes sir/ma’am”, pass the course, and then jettison it from the mind in favor of more relevant things.
True: We had no CRT in 66-75. I had two great black SF SFC’s at CCS, MACVSOG. One was shot from shoulder to shoulder by AK rounds. He was in the hospital at Bragg with me. He could not even eat. No hand/arm use. His wife had to feed him.
The statements by James in which he repudiated the most militant point of view endeared him to concerned whites, including President Johnson, who invited him to a White House reception. Immediately after the murder of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and as riots erupted in several areas across the country, James addressed a gathering of Air Force Association officers at which he declared that in spite of events and the resistance to progress, “I’m not disgusted-I’m a citizen of the United States of America and I’m no second-class citizen either and no man here is, unless he thinks like one and reasons like one and performs like one. This is my country and I believe in her, and I will serve her, and I’ll contribute to her welfare whenever and however I can. If she has any ills, I’ll stand by her until in God’s given time, through her wisdom and her consideration for the welfare of the entire nation, she will put them right.”
What a man.
A true Giant, and Great American, RIP.
So we’re training future warriors in “be nice to bad guys?” If Trump we’re still Prez., he’d cut funding and tell the commandant to jump in the lake.
