Faculty wants dedicated study space for Black students only, plus enforced unconscious bias training.
Issuing the ultimate woke wishlist, The Faculty Association at California State university has demanded that all Black Native, and Indigenous students should be given free tuition as a redress for systemic anti-Black racism in the CSU.
The CFA has also charged that the historical and longstanding infrastructures of universities should be dismantled because they are fundamentally grounded in a white supremacist colonial discourse and culture.
Campus Reform reports that the CFA also wants to overturn the ban on affirmative action, and is arguing that racial pay equity needs to be implemented because workload is also higher for Black faculty given that CSU faculty are majority-white, and CSU students are majority of color resulting in cultural taxation.
Without providing corroborating evidence, the faculty also claims that research conducted by Black students is often not valued at the same level as other faculty.
A further demand outlines that there be Black faculty available to serve as reviewers for Black faculty candidates, so as to counter white supremacy, as well as dedicated study space for Black students only.
The faculty also demands an expansion of curriculum for Ethnic Studies, creating Black Student/Resource Centers, and enforcing unconscious bias training for all students.
In addition, the faculty urges support for initiatives toward the full abolition of the police, claiming that Black, Native, and Indigenous students can not rely on police for safety, and that law enforcement has racist roots enhancing the dehumanization of Black people.
For good measure, the woke demand list also includes a petition for protection of the Black LGBTQIA+ community.
The CFAs statement says that it recognize[s] that the movement for queer and trans liberation was catalyzed by uprisings led by QTPOC (queer and trans people of color), often against police violence.
It concludes that students should continue building on a radical and beautiful legacy of resistance.
This is indicative of demands from woke student groups across the nation. For example, at UCLA, a Professor was recently placed on leave and subject to threats of violence after he rejected requests to allow black students to take final exams at a later date, purely because of the colour of their skin.
Other reports from elsewhere in the country have indicated that black students are demanding they be given leniency, or just better grades, to combat systemic racism
If you don’t like it then move to South Africa and attend college there, also, when you get there please burn your passport as that would be your last tie to “White Supremacy”.
How about we just issue an A grade as part of the reparation package. Give them an A even for not showing up for class.
I’m still trying to get over the moron “teacher” that Joe Bidet had in his conference with the NEA rep.
Keep it up Lefty professors. This is how one puts oneself out of a job.
The irony is that many of these professors are going to have a very hard time teaching the populations they purport to want to serve. This is true both in terms of teaching the material and being “canceled” for ANY perceived microaggression.
[[[plus enforced unconscious bias training.]]]
Mass “reeducation camps” called public schools. They are going for broke now.
I would think any ‘black’ with integrity would be insulted by this.

If the student can’t get or hold a job after graduation, well, that’s the EMPLOYER’s problem.
I figure it more as a space where 2+2=5
Why stop there, the Faculty should demand all Faculty are Black. Fire the White Faculty. It’s only FAIR!
Boy, we are sure moving toward a minority apartheid pretty quick.
Pretty soon it will be obvious that black just can’t make it without a handout.../S
Invest in chest waders, fece's getting deep.
In other words they want to abrogate the 14th amendment and treat people differently based on race.
Cool. So segregation is OK, and Separate But Equal is back.
Fine, don’t give those faculty pay checks. Then see how their attitudes change. Example, the mayor of Tacoma, WA, and the idiot mayor of Seattle. They were for BLM before their properties were assaulted.
The University of North Carolina is way ahead of everyone on this. They’ve been doing this in the african American studies degree for about 20 years.
I guess they should also get “degrees” without doing any work.
They are already working on lowering standards again for the poor oppressed blacks and pocs.
Just churning out morons with “studies” degrees.
Free tuition to teach pigs to sing seems a waste of time but Carl Marx has a different idea. Perhaps the singing lessons have not been done right yet.
Oops, done left yet, sorry to offend...
Why would anyone want to pay taxes to have teachers indoctrinate students to hate the taxpayers.
Are white people stupid or what?
Eventually all this will settle down and these policies at Public Universities will be challenged in court and they will lose. I know, courts are liberal, Roberts is a dick etc... We have been down this road and courts eventually are forced by that pesky Constitution to stop it. But I do think we are headed to segregation again. It will be based on race and income. With the minority districts poor and under employed.
Since “systemic” racism can only exist in the governing class all this free tuition should be deducted from the Government pay checks.
Individual racism can be delt with individually
