Instead of fighting against the establishment, on university campuses social justice warriors are the establishment.
Administrators at Oregon State University are in the process of rolling out a mandatory “social justice learning module”—a course that freshmen students will need to take as part of their admission to the public university.
The program has outlined five key priorities: among them are teaching the “context and history for social justice efforts,” as well as “establishing expectations for an inclusive and equitable university community.”
While this program is new for Oregon State, it does augment the school’s politically correctness SWAT team—the “bias response team,” which is a specialized unit of faculty members and diversity coordinators dispatched to deal with bias-related events that occur on campus.
The school’s Chief Diversity Officer—the presence of such a thing problematic enough—told the College Fix that the course is necessary to inform students of “systemic and local inequities” and to “correct injustice.”
She said that free speech will not be compromised.
“The goal of our bias incident response isn’t to stop or prevent anyone from exercising their right to engage in free speech within social media channels or elsewhere,” she said. “It’s not about avoiding hard conversations or difficult ideas, but promoting and creating a safe and inclusive community where everyone has the ability to fully participate in these conversations.”
Instead of being relegated to a minority of idealistic and ideologically-driven students in a social justice club, some students must dive head first in political correctness to even attend the school.
But this is not what "bias are getting at is it. You are selling this degenerate idea of inherent guilt for being in a majority group. Pure sewage from both a philosophical and logical perspective and devoid of unbiased morality..
Because it has philosophical linearity with Canadian Pedagogy – you know, a philosophical argument – something you are obviously unfamiliar with.
Type exactly as shown here into Google search… “critical theory” canada.
See how many of the top search returns are generated by Canadian universities. All subsidiaries of The Frankfurt School in my opinion.
And don’t think it doesn’t happen in Canada too. Google Senator Ann Cools and learn a bit about her background of activism especially her involvement in the sit-in that destroyed $2 million dollars worth of computer equipment at Sir George Williams University (which later merged with another university to become Concordia University).
Those American young people should learn something about their own biases, which at times can be atrocious. They should also learn something about the goodness of others — non-Americans.
-- some of the toughest people, and some not so tough but made tough came up that trail in covered wagons, subjected to thirst, hunger , heat , cold , attacking indians and physical infections.And now look at their off spring, turn into vacouse pansy shells from mental infections spread to these students from the Marxist educational agenda
Time to start.
1. tolerance
2.acceptance
3.celebration
4.forced participation
5. punishment of all dissenters
LOOKS LIKE THEY ARE AT STAGE 4 NOW
Hayek said “social Justice” is a mirage which presumes equality is served by redistributing inequality. It’s about coercively forcing equality as an outcome rather than an operational principle – the end-state of distributive justice, always requires tyranny and totalist authority.
That principle seems to be in play on these public campus’ – a student no longer has the choice of avoiding this clap trap ideology, he has it force fed under penalty.
