Is that like a "community organizer"?

Student employees at James Madison University in Virginia are receiving training to recognize that people identifying as male, straight, cisgender or Christian are "oppressors" engaging in the "systematic subjugation" of other social groups, Fox News reports.
The training was part of work for incoming orientation, Fox News reported, citing documents it had obtained from the training sessions that included social justice and inclusion.
According to a training video required to be viewed by student staff and hosted by coordinators Jessica Weed and Jennifer Iwerks, oppression is described as "the systematic subjugation of one social group by a more powerful social group for the social, economic and political benefit of the more powerful social group."
The video says an "oppressor" group is one with power to define reality for themselves as well as others. As a result, the "target" groups "take in and internalize the negative messages about them and end up cooperating with the oppressors (thinking and acting like them)."
Privilege is defined as the "unearned social power accorded by the formal and informal institutions of society to ALL members of a dominant group at the expense of targeted groups." The oppressor and target groups' members are "socialized to play their roles as normal and correct."
Among the races and nationalities listed as "privileged" or "agents" are those identifying as male, cisgender, heterosexual, heteroromantic, Christian, white, Western European, American, upper to middle class, thin/athletic build, able-bodied or ages 30s to early 50s.
The "oppressed" or "target" groups include those identifying as Black, Asian, Latinx, non-Western European, LGBTQ+, homoromantic, Muslim, Jewish, working class, overweight or disabled.
Once the training was complete the student employees received an email telling them not to ''share these materials with others."

Is that like a "community organizer"?
Spent a summer taking a class at JMU. Beautiful area and the students were a bunch of drunks.
Go in dumb, come out dumber.
Did anyone oppress you while you were at JMU?
romantically attracted only to people of the opposite gender (typically used with reference to a person who does not experience sexual attraction, or who is bisexual). "Ellie identifies as a heteroromantic asexual"
So you want to date the opposite sex, but no naughty time?
All this comes out of Marxist Critical Theory. Thy don’t anything to support their theory but a pseudo intellectual word salad.
.
Ellie is deeply confused.
I was there in the mid 80s. The only oppressing thing then were the smells from the Purina dog chow factory in town and poultry farms in the surrounding countryside.
Yeah, I was picked on by jocks in high school, but as far as I know, they weren't an oppressor class.
That’s where it belongs
Any white male vapid and dumb enough to be influenced or believe this nonsense does not belong in college in the first place. BTW James Madison is a taxpayer supported public mediocre college. It is best known for churning out half witted teachers who are employed by woke school boards.
This is the Kill Whitey movement dressed up in academic pretentiousness.
Nice boobs, if anything
Obviously not true and this black man descended from slaves agrees CRT is pure 100% bullcrap. He speaks to a Colorado School Board about it in this short video.
