You’re probably aware of the freakout that took place when Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis named anti-critical race theory crusader Christopher Rufo to the board of trustees of New College. One of the first moves was to send all of the DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusiveness) personnel packing. DeSantis is trying to root out DEI departments from all state schools.
Rufo has been taking a look recently at the University of Texas, which is a state school. He reports that the assistant dean of DEI is instructing staffers with the same slides that have been used by even the U.S. Army, whose “Operation Inclusion” taught that saying “Make America Great Again” was an example of “covert white supremacy.” These are the slide decks all of these high-paid DEI officers get paid to pass around.
University of Texas assistant DEI dean Skyller Walkes promotes the idea that "colorblindness," "meritocracy," "calling the police on Black people," "BIPOC as Halloween costumes," and "'Make America Great Again'" are "white supremacy."

Hours after I exposed DEI assistant dean Skyller Walkes denouncing the United States as a "system of oppression" and encouraging students to become "revolutionary[ies]," the University of Texas has scrubbed Walkes' biography from the school website.
It's time to abolish DEI. pic.twitter.com/ILcilbzBUr

The archived page describes Walkes, who worked in the College of Pharmacy, as a devotee of "Critical Race Theory, Afro-Latinx identity, art activism, race and intersectionality."https://t.co/lHDHvm9y1W pic.twitter.com/2M22OkGYeM

“Art activism” … *fart noise*.
Walkes left the University of Texas late last year for a job at Columbia University. UT is still promoting her materials denouncing the US as a "system of oppression" and falsely claiming that colorblindness is "white supremacy." pic.twitter.com/YMpzoRR6qP

Yes, we’ve been assured that saying you don’t see color when you look at people is a sign of white supremacist thinking.
Why are there such things as deans and assistant deans of "diversity and inclusion?"

Defund all colleges. They are the head of indoctrination. Let them see how much the illegals will pay for their stupidity. No more tax payer money.

Bonus: The University of Texas is all-in on academic queer theory as well:
Exclusive: The University of Texas has published a guidebook promoting "polyamory" and "polyfidelity." The university connects students with resources on "pagan polyamory," "kink based social networking," and "live performances about sexuality."

You do realize this is happening at just about every university. DeSantis and Rufo are trying to clean the rot out of New College of Florida and have caused a national panic.
