The author has to take a gratuitous shot at Trump at the end, but notice that the impetus for this course came from the athletes. "This proposal comes from faculty members affiliated with AAAS [African & African American Studies], but what is interesting is that the Black Student Athletes Association has provided the impetus for this proposal."

I gave up the NFL when the kneeling started. I’ve barely watched college this season. Guess I’m now officially done with Thugball.

Quit sending your children to “ universities “.

They are CCP indoctrination centers. And, very, very expensive ones at that.

Paraphrasing Thomas Sowell: It's hard to reason somebody out of an absurd idea if it lets them feel morally superior.

That is what is happening with Critical Race Theory. Some idiots actually believe it and for others it is simply virtue-signaling (a cheap way to look and feel good in front of others).

If it’s required, it should only be with no charge to the students if not a subject of their majors. Why would we reward the ‘woke’ for taking worthless classes?

Send your kids to a good trade school or apprentice them to tradesmen.

Academia has turned into Lackademia.

All reasoning is out the window, sorely lacking.

Sounds like Mizzou, with the tail wagging the dog.
They let the FB team turn the whole campus upside down with their social justice stompy feet antics.

For anyone who may not yet understand what critical race theory is, here’s a bit of a primer...

In the 80s and 90s, my cousin was an English professor at LSU. Her sole job was to (her words, not mine) "teach the black football players how to read".

LSU obviously has much bigger problems than fictional racism.

Read the comments below the article. One is from a prof at another college and says that this reverse discrimination in hiring goes on all the time and it can’t be stopped. Very discouraging. This is also happening in the University of California system even though it has been outlawed by a referendum that was passed by the citizens of CA. But no matter, leftist academic elitists believe that they are above the law because they think that they know better than the rest of us. So disgusting!!

Our ratfaced governor is not a conservative democrat but is a liberal leftwing democrat. Somehow we have decided to let all black athletes lead the conversation on race when they have not earned that right just because they are black.
