University incorporates anti-white ideology Marxist Ideology into medical course

pgnewser January 20, 2026

The University of Maryland is teaching its doctors to hate white people through a course called “Decolonizing Medicine: Steps to Actionable Change.” The course claims it covers how “colonial legacies” still affect “global health systems.” It also claims the “concept of the White Body” was the standard for medical training.

Dr. Jane Orient, executive director at the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, told The College Fix, “The title of the course as well as the description reflects the ideological view of oppressors (white colonialists) versus the oppressed (people of color), a fundamental anti-white racist view. The statement that modern medicine has been shaped by ‘colonialism’ makes no sense to me … Modern medicine was shaped by scientific advances.

“The purpose of medicine, according to the late Donald Seldin, is to relieve pain, reduce disability, and postpone death. It is not about social reform. Framing medicine through Marxist concepts of oppression is destructive of the art and science of medicine,” Orient added. “Doctors are not called to judge their patients’ worth or to engage in cultural revolution.”

Physicians are raising concerns over new course offerings at the University of Maryland that incorporate identity politics into various public health and medical programs at the public institution.

“Decolonizing Medicine: Steps to Actionable Change” is a one-credit undergraduate public health course, first taught in the spring of 2025 and offered again this semester.

Designed for students studying medicine, public health, or health policy, it covers how “colonial legacies” impact “global health systems” and the “concept of ‘the White body’” as the standard in medical training, according to the university registrar’s catalog. The “student-facilitated discussion-based” course also is open for registration for the current spring semester as a two-credit elective.

Student group demands ‘racism’ inquiry following resignation of univ. DEI chief

A branch of the Canadian Federation of Students is demanding an investigation into “racism” regarding the departure of Memorial University‘s diversity, equity, and inclusion chief.

Delores Mullings has been Memorial’s “inaugural vice-provost of EDI-AR” since 2021 (Canadians use “EDI” instead of “DEI”; “AR” stands for “anti-racism”). According to The Hamilton Spectator, Mullings complained of “a lack of understanding among senior administration about what equity, diversity, inclusion and anti-racism mean” and how they “should interact” with the EDI-AR office.

Mullings said her job left her “feeling lonely,” adding that “while I’m the one in the role, it doesn’t mean that I’m the only one that needs to be talking about equity issues.”

She also bemoaned that Memorial’s new president, who took office last August, “not once reached out to [her] to arrange a meeting.”

DUKE: DOJ Nukes The Left’s Favorite Way To Enforce Racial Quotas– dailycaller.com

pgnewser December 16, 2025

A few days ago, Attorney General Pam Bondi dropped a bombshell press release about U.S. anti-discrimination law.

“Disparate impact” is effectively dead.

“The prior ‘disparate impact’ regulations encouraged people to file lawsuits challenging racially neutral policies, without evidence of intentional discrimination,” Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division said in the release. “Our rejection of this theory will restore true equality under the law by requiring proof of actual discrimination, rather than enforcing race- or sex-based quotas or assumptions.”

The Justice Department will essentially deprioritize discrimination cases that rely on “disparate impact” under this new standard.

Most of the media ignored the announcement. But Politico regurgitated left-wing talking points, asserting in a supposedly straight news story that the move “end[s] long-standing civil rights policies that prohibit local governments and organizations that receive federal funding from maintaining policies that disproportionately harm people of color.” They added it “will make it harder to challenge potential bias in housing, criminal law, employment, environmental regulations and other policy areas.”

Military Funding Bill Still Allows Promoting Soldiers By Race, Sex– thefederalist.com

pgnewser December 16, 2025

Five months ago, in these pages I expressed concern that Congress was missing the opportunity to restore merit to the military personnel system. To accomplish that task I urged Congress to include a meritocracy provision in the 2026 NDAA that does four things: (1) require all military personnel actions to be based exclusively on merit; (2) forbid race and sex-based preferences; (3) provide for reasonable exceptions when mission success requires sex or race be considered; and (4) define key terms so idealogues in the Pentagon cannot manipulate the language to further their diversity agenda.

When the House and Senate passed their versions of the NDAA, it appeared that between the two chambers some progress toward establishing a merit-based personnel system was being made. When the compromise bill resolving the differences between the House and Senate version, S. 1017, was released last week, it was readily apparent that Congress had no intention of requiring merit principles to govern military personnel actions. To make matters worse, the drafters employed smoke and mirrors to put a merit-sounding title on a provision that just reinforces the Biden-era identity preference status quo.

DOJ Sues Minneapolis Schools For Racial Discrimination Against Teachers– trendingpoliticsnews.com

pgnewser December 16, 2025

The U.S. Department of Justice announced this week that its Civil Rights Division had filed a lawsuit against Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS) over alleged racial discrimination against teachers in the school system.

The suit targets provisions in the district’s collective bargaining agreement (CBA) with the teachers’ union, alleging that these provisions provide preferential treatment to certain teachers based on race, color, national origin, or sex. The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota.

It claims that the CBA classifies teachers differently for decisions involving involuntary reassignment, layoffs, and reinstatement, depending on whether a teacher is considered a member of an “underrepresented population.”

According to the complaint, this results in teachers from such groups receiving protections or preferences not available to others.

Another Black Lives Matter leader has been charged with financial crimes and accused of embezzling funds that were intended for the BLM chapter in Oklahoma City. Now, it makes one wonder, can anyone name one thing this organization has done to make Black people better off? No? That is what I thought. And are you surprised by this? No? I didn’t think so.

The U.S. Department of Justice claims Dickerson deposited more than $3 million in returned bail checks into her personal account from Black Lives Matter Oklahoma City’s account from June 2020 to at least October of this year.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) announced that its Office for Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity (FHEO) has launched an investigation into certain housing practices implemented by the City of Boston over alleged racial discrimination in housing.

The investigation focuses on policies described as “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” (DEI) initiatives, which HUD alleges may violate the Fair Housing Act and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by incorporating race-based preferences.The notification to the City of Boston was issued recently, following a prior letter from HUD expressing concerns that the city was using federal grant assistance in ways that include prohibited race-based preferences.

Examples include efforts under the city’s Fair Housing Assessment to target homebuyer outreach specifically at Black and “Latinx” families. This involves the Mayor’s Office of Housing, the Boston Planning Department, and the Boston Housing Authority collecting racial and ethnic data to evaluate programs through a racial equity and social justice perspective.

Kentucky Lawmaker Says She Does Not “Feel Good About Being White”– www.louderwithcrowder.com

Republicans in Kentucky are trying to end DEI in the state’s public schools, which is an objectively good thing. However, not everyone is on that bandwagon, including Rep. Sarah Stalker.

According to Stalker, it’s a privilege to be born with white skin. Unclear what she means by that because she provided zero evidence to support her statements, but you do the math. Nonetheless, what she said is worse than you can imagine.

According to the Kentucky Lantern:

When committee members were able to question the proposal, a few Democrats voiced opposition. Rep. Sarah Stalker, D-Louisville, said that by ending DEI in education, the General Assembly would be “missing an incredible opportunity.” As a white woman, she’s had moments to reflect on her own privilege that many of her colleagues, friends, family and more do not have.

“I think we’re missing an opportunity when kids have a moment to reflect about how the color of their skin does and does not allow them to move through the world,” Stalker said. “Running to them and trying to stifle that and trying to say, ‘You shouldn’t feel bad, so we don’t want to ever expose you to something that is going to make you have to pause and have maybe some internal feelings.’ It’s a missed opportunity for some really good dialog.”

Federal prosecutors say Oklahoma City BLM leader Tashella Sheri Amore Dickerson spent five years looting more than $3 million meant for bail assistance and social-justice programs — secretly routing returned bail checks into her own accounts to bankroll luxury vacations, shopping sprees, groceries, a car, and six properties. Dickerson, who led the chapter since 2016, allegedly diverted $3.15 million in grant money funneled through the Alliance for Global Justice, filing fraudulent reports while using BLM’s bank, PayPal, and CashApp accounts as her personal ATM. She now faces 20 counts of wire fraud and five counts of money laundering — charges carrying decades in federal prison — even as she bizarrely claims the indictment simply proves she was “doing the work.”

The U.S. Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS) over a collective bargaining agreement giving preferential treatment to non-white teachers and shelling out other benefits based on race.

After settling a three-week strike of the Minnesota Federation of Teachers in 2022, MPS included a provision in new teacher contracts that let teachers who were not white bypass the normal system of layoffs and involuntary assignments (which are typically based on seniority), indicating the school system now has a policy of retaining racially “underrepresented” teachers over white teachers who have been there longer.

“Employers may not provide more favorable terms and conditions of employment based on an employee’s race and sex,” Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon said in a Wednesday announcement. “The Department of Justice will vigorously pursue employers who deny their employees equal opportunities and benefits by classifying and limiting them based on their race, color, national origin, or sex.”

Texas Christian U. to end gender, race studies departments

Texas Christian University will dissolve its Departments of Women and Gender Studies and Comparative Race and Ethnic Studies at the end of this academic year, merging both programs into the English Department.

The decision, announced earlier this month, has sparked debate over whether the action could mark a return to traditional Christian values or is a cosmetic response to donors and political pressure.

Provost Floyd Wormley told faculty the merger is driven by low enrollment and broader budget restructuring that will also combine other small departments. “Decisions are not based on academic content but on data,” a university spokesperson told Inside Higher Ed.

U.S. officials will consider enforcement of affirmative action policies and state subsidies for abortion as infringements when compiling the State Department’s annual human rights report, as President Donald Trump’s administration seeks to reshape foreign policy in line with “America First” principles.

Under the Trump administration, the human rights issue has been repurposed to fit his priorities in favor of economic dealmaking and an agenda he sees as appealing to his MAGA base. That has included a complete overhaul of the State Department’s human rights apparatus, which had long been the centerpiece of traditional U.S. promotion of democratic values.

The Left Thinks Western Civilization Itself Is ‘White Nationalist’– thefederalist.com

Do you celebrate classical architecture? Or do you appreciate Platonic or Aristotelian philosophy, or seek to practice stoicism as taught by the ancients? Perhaps you’re inspired by stories of ancient Greek heroism, epitomized by Achilles before the gates of Troy, the Spartans at Thermopylae, or Alexander the Great’s victories against the Persians? You’d better beware — according to liberal propaganda efforts, you’re probably a white nationalist.

According to Curtis Dozier, an associate professor of Greek and Roman studies at Vassar College and director of the website “Pharos: Doing Justice to the Classics” which “documents appropriations of Greco-Roman antiquity by hate groups,” conservatism is awash in appreciations for the classical world that are actually cover for white nationalist narratives. Based on the title of his new book, The White Pedestal: How White Nationalists Use Ancient Greece and Rome to Justify Hate, you might think Dozier is focusing his attention on people such as Nick Fuentes, Richard Spencer, or the crazies at the Neo-Nazi website stormfront.org. But in fact Dozier — and a panoply of prominent liberal institutions — aim to cast a much wider net.

University of Michigan Faculty Senate Wants More Trans Surgeries, ‘Treatments’ for Youth – PJ Media– pjmedia.com

pgnewser November 19, 2025

The University of Michigan Faculty Senate is aggressively urging the school to ignore federal rules — and science — to continue castrating minors in the name of transgender ideology.

The motion claims that so-called gender-affirming care is “medically necessary,” which is preposterous, since it is impossible to change one’s biological sex. Thus attempting to do so cannot be necessary; indeed, it can only be harmful. It is disturbing that the faculty senate is so blinded by ideology that they are determined to mutilate children at all costs and against all evidence.

The UMich faculty senate asserted in a motion that its obligation “to serve the people of Michigan and the world through preeminence in creating, communicating, preserving and applying knowledge, art, and academic values, and in developing leaders and citizens who will challenge the present and enrich the future” necessitates transgender mutilation for minors. Sounds as if another university needs to lose federal funding.

Plans prompted skepticism from one scholar who says DEI is still deeply embedded in the institution

A new plan by the University of Michigan to invest in civil discourse is being questioned after the institution spent hundreds of millions of dollars on diversity, equity, and inclusion in recent years.

University President Domenico Grasso announced in September a $50 million investment in a new institute for civil discourse.

In the works since 2024, the institute is expected to open in the spring, a news release states.

“One of my priorities as president is for the nation to look to Michigan as a model in higher education for civil and robust discourse on critical issues,” Grasso said at a Board of Regents meeting in September.

“Silencing voices is anathema to a great university like ours,” he said. “Our common ground, in pursuit of the common good, must be reasoned discourse and civility. I believe we can — and must — rise to this moment, together, in ways only Michigan can.”

College alleges the public school system wants it to abandon its ‘religiously based hiring practices’

Moody Bible Institute, an evangelical Protestant college in Illinois, filed a lawsuit Tuesday alleging the Chicago public school system is discriminating against its student teachers because of its Christian mission.

A new advertisement from Denmark’s state broadcaster is drawing attention for its messaging about genetics and diversity, reigniting discussion about political themes in Western advertising.

The commercial, which promotes a science program titled “Evolution,” features an on-screen “expert” interrupting a white Danish couple as they flirt.

The expert explains that Denmark’s history of war introduced foreign DNA into the national gene pool, which he says “protected them from disease.”

He then compares their relationship to inbreeding because they are both white and suggests they seek partners with more “exotic” genetics.

The woman then smiles as if intrigued by the idea.

The series first aired in 2020 but is now being re-released with the same “inbreeding” advertisements in 2025.

Harvard Report Exposes Graduates are Coasting by on Unearned Grades

pgnewser October 28, 2025

A Harvard degree these days is considered, in growing circles, a liability, not an asset, given the university’s hard left lurch towards insurrection against the republic. But now, a new report has exposed Harvard’s grading system. Even the students themselves acknowledge what the data now shows, Harvard’s grades are fake. College professors pass students more to fulfill DEI dreams than to train true experts for a shared, American society. Harvard’s own report condemns them.

In the report, faculty members themselves said there’s been “a radical shift from providing critical feedback to providing emotional support.” More than 60% of the grades awarded are As, for instance, and hardly anyone ever fails. In grading, some faculty allege “[T]he College has been exhorting faculty to remember that some students arrive less prepared for college …”

Harvard University’s Dean of Undergraduate Admissions should be praised for her bravery.

She’s not fully brave. She’s not saying the quiet part. But she got the conversation started, and it’s just the first major crack in a facade built over the last two decades.

In it, Dean of Undergraduate Admissions Amanda Claybaugh says flatly that the university is “failing to perform key functions of grading.”

“Progressive Christian” publishers are rolling out a new wave of children’s Bibles and devotionals that replace traditional teachings with messaging focused on far-left ideology, including social justice and Marxism-rooted “diversity, equity, and inclusion” (DEI).

The new books are part of a growing push to reshape how children are introduced to faith.

Publishers behind the rewritten stories argue that the original Bible promotes “Christian white supremacy.”

DEI Industry Dying as Trump clamps down on racist policies

September’s job postings reveal a 50% drop in DEI-related job postings compared to pre-pandemic levels. The peak of DEI job postings was in 2022, when 10,000 jobs were posted, compared to the pace of 1,500 for this year so far.

The Trump administration’s policies had a direct impact on DEI incentives, penalizing government-funded companies and banning DEI policies in government institutions. So far, under President Trump, 38% of DEI employees were moved into non-DEI roles, 55% moved to another company in a non-DEI role, leaving only 7% still in DEI positions.

The plight of corporate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) jobs is only getting worse as the Trump administration’s crackdown takes hold, new employment research shows.

As of September, job postings for diversity roles have plunged roughly 50% from pre-pandemic levels, falling to about 1,500 this year, according to Revelio Labs data reported by Bloomberg. By comparison, DEI-related postings nearly quadrupled in 2022, reaching approximately 10,000.

California Creates Bureau of Reparations for Blacks

pgnewser October 14, 2025

The state of California is now openly apartheid, creating a monetary reward system that awards people for being black and descended from slaves. The new reparations law was signed into being by Governor Gavin Newsome (D-CA). The law establishes a “Bureau for Descendants of American Slavery,” which will go through the process of verifying eligibility for the program next. After that, the bureau will determine the nature of the benefits, or rewards, then become the dispenser of the “benefits.”

The law will be challenged immediately due to its open violation of the fourteenth amendment, which prohibits government from discriminating against individuals because of the color of their skin. There are some constitutional exceptions, and leftist anti-Americanist judges will find it easy to ham fist this law into those exceptions, so the constitutionality of the law will be determined by whether the court leans American or leftist.

Five years after forming a task force, and more than two years after the group released its recommendations, Gov. Gavin Newsom has approved legislation making my home state the first (and hopefully last) in the union to approve direct “reparations” to the descendants of former slaves.

Also known as direct cash payments and other state-provided benefits to black people based on the color of their skin. Also known as…racist.

As we previously covered, these performative efforts at moral posturing have long been brewing in California. In terms of the proposed benefits, the proposals ranged from the absurd to the unconstitutional.
