The University of Rhode Island recently announced plans to remove two murals depicting the events of World War II due to their lack of diversity. The decision was prompted after students complained that the mural was not compatible with the universitys values of inclusivity. According to the schools Vice President of Student Affairs, Some of our students have even shared with us they didnt feel comfortable sitting in that space.

Stop talking about slaves bring brought to America. They were almost all black. A complete lack of diversity there. Slavery should not be mentioned anymore!

"Did you really think we want those laws observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against... We're after power and we mean it... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted and you create a nation of law-breakers and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with." ― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

Women can now serve in any billet in the armed forces.This based on the deep thinkers inside the beltway have declared there will never be another protracted high intensity war in any element. You just know where this is going to end.

Why oh why do these children (”students”) get to dictate what will happen? They’re there to learn, not dictate

University of Michigan instituted segregation.
They have “non-poc” and “bipoc” rooms.
“Non-poc” is fir whitey.
“Bipoc” is “black, indigenous, people of color”.

I guess they can’t paint some of the white soldiers black or brown instead of taking the murals down
Ah....that would be soldiers in blackface I suppose... We don’t deserve to survive the human race test.

Well. The “metoo” people must be horrified by that woman in the black bathing suit being chased by an aggressive married man.

I recall an article on public Ivies about thirty years ago, and students at URI (not considered a public Ivy) referred to it as “High school after high school”.

put all of them in the first wave of Omaha Beach.... During the Civil War the Union Army did just that. They used the black troops to use up the Confederate ammunition in Florida, the Carolinas and at Petersburg. At Brices' Crossroads the black troops bailed out the Union Army; if it hadn't been for two regiments of black troops, Forrest would have bagged the whole army.
