West Point goes full woke, pushes 'Diversity & Inclusion Studies'
WND ^ | 09/27/2023 | Peter LaBarbera

The United States Military Academy at West Point is offering a "Diversity and Inclusion Studies Minor" as part of its escalating DEI agenda championing "critical race theory" and transsexuality, among other leftist ideologies.

Though the academy cloaks its DEI, or "Diversity, Equity & Inclusion," mission in idealistic, cultural-left rhetoric, a review of its sustaining documents reveals signs of the same "woke" mindset that has divided the nation by mainstreaming sex-and-gender radicalism as well as a racialist obsession deemed by many conservatives and moderates to be anti-white racism.

The multi-billion-dollar corporate DEI movement (many call it an industry) promotes left-wing ideas and fads that have collectively been described as "Cultural Marxism" by critics on the Right. They say its gender and race focus elevates grievances and alleged historical injustices while pitting societal groups against each other – rather than assessing all people by a single standard based on character and qualifications.

Though the DEI movement champions "inclusion," the ideologues behind it routinely show themselves to be intolerant of traditionalist and religious/moral perspectives, labeling them as hateful, bigoted and "phobic" (hence the smear-terms "homophobe" and "transphobe").

West Point justifies the intense DEI focus as a way to help recruitment by appealing to a younger generation that values "diversity" – which is ironic because conservatives blame the U.S. military's same "woke" push as the main reason for the current recruitment crisis. The Diversity & Inclusion Studies Minor was established in 2019.

"Our Armed Forces must reflect the nation it defends, including the diversity of the people we serve," states a West Point "Diversity & Inclusion Plan" report. "We have a growing divide between the military demographic and the American people, particularly within the Officer Corps. An Army not representative of the nation may become illegitimate in the eyes of some people..."

The rats have controlled the military for 11 of the last 15 years. This is what happens.

Some people are rightfully concerned by this. However, this man thinks West Point is moving in the right direction.

Any DEI class, worth it’s statistical salt, should demonstrate how the organizational excellence and expertise is compromised by DEI hires.

Yesterday, I posted a somewhat related article and thought you might be interested. The on-going rot at West Point runs deep.

Stick a fork in West Point, they’re done… Wait until you see the new degree they’re offering…
