    Don’t ever let a college try and convince you that it is diverse. When the administration says it’s diverse, it is focused on diversity in color, not diversity in thought.

    @@BallinNQnz My comment was meant to stretch beyond politics. If anything, the colleges have gotten too political, and to one side, and not in a healthy way. If you look at any of their diversity agendas you'll see it's focused on physical traits, and not diversity in thought. Personally, I don't think it should be about color at all. And if so, the only color colleges should be focused on is gray, which is the color of the cerebral cortex in which they should be stimulating.

    @@BallinNQnz Yep, I've heard that said before by the people peddling that agenda. It's a polite way of saying, "you're only as valuable to us as your skin color." How exactly is admitting me based on my skin color and not my academic performance going to give others a chance? If I'm a poor performing student, then I'm only going to perform more poorly upon admittance, unless I catch a break for my skin color. I'm then conditioned to underachieve in hopes of a handout, and then cry foul if the handout no longer comes. Years ago I stopped focusing on peoples intentions and instead focused on the outcomes of their intentions. People's intentions can be nefarious/self-congratulatory, such as, look at this inferior person of color I just helped. Or the intention can be a noble one, yet the outcome can be dismal towards that person. Eventually, they'll get bored and tired of helping you for a new noble cause and pet project. It's always best to help yourself. If you found yourself in caught up in their agenda, find someway to turn it around to benefit yourself. I could say, at least use them as they are using you, but I see no value in becoming like them.

    DIVERSITY has become code for PUBLIC ACCEPTANCE OF RACISM. Even as a black man I can see that. Diversity of thought is what matters! The mind is actually the one place we can all challenge each other if we decide. Amazing that so many think the way to rid this world of racism is strictly by judging EVERYONE and putting them in order by the color of their skin.

In Russia they killed all layers of Russian society. Russian revolution was war of minorities against "oppressors". First they killed aristocracy and bourjois, then they killed the clergy, then they killed "rich" peasants, villiagers, so they exterminated all the educated Russians and favored agressive tribes. Now we are watching the end of this drama: Ukranians trying to finish the rest of Russian nation.

Now we know and it's been a failure in many ways and a success only when immigrants assimilate and become Canadian. There are many who choose not to assimilate and one wonders why they chose to come here. Now trudeau 2 has strapped on the immigration turbo jets and our society is morphing right in front of our eyes....the media will not talk about it and why would they when the corrupt liberal government is handing out money for "positive" reporting and they are also signing the UN global migration pact which compels our media to report only in a positive framework on the topic of migration and "irregular" migration (they use irregular instead of illegal).

Heather isn't saying blacks aren't smart enough, what she's saying is that dumb programs like Affirmative Action place black students in schools based on quotas, not performance, simply because of their skin color. Many blacks are against these programs too: Thomas Sowell, Larry Elder, Jason Riley. I am a white female who was an honor student in high school, but if I had been told I was accepted into MIT, I would never have accepted because I know I would fail. I'm not MIT equipped. You have to place kids in colleges that are on par with their test scores and abilities, not just throw them in Ivy League schools to make yourself feel morally superior.

    "Affirmative Action" is Hasbarah Jewfemism for "Negative Tackle" If Mass-Immigration Mercenary-Proxy-Invasion is shoved down our throats (Christians' Virtues, namely Compassion Used / Instrumentalized to inhibit opposition, the Ad-Misericordiam pharisaic phallacy. The dead Syrian boy at the beach - because his father needed 1st class german dentistry, not pulling a tooth). JewSury (and its "Sinister" / Left hand (Marx, Trotsky, Soros, ) will Sniff and use any VULNERABILITY, be it Virtue, Vice, Quality, Defect, etc, to tackle, and get his target PREY by the JEWGULAR. While capable White-Christians are bared from the best colleges (ex-Christian Seminars), Jews are far over-represented in, both as Students and Professors. Germans were complaining for the same, in the 1880's, half a century after they had been "enfranchised", given all Christian Cytizens's rights. Things only got worse when Lord Rothschild decided he wanted to conquest the USA and Is-a-Hell. He pushed the Progroms in hated usury-proof Tzarist-Russia to: a) Stir (time-proof) Jewish Sectarian anti-Russian hate. b) Push Jewish Hostile-Usurpatory-Predary-Parasitic-Inmigration into Germany and USA. Apparently in the USA, adhering and controling the Demo(n's)Cratic Party was part of the plan. Saludos Angel Ruiz

A twig can help them swim through. What do you guys think if univ's base admissions on equal opportunities? Like income level & parental status at home & access to quality resources.

    I could never express my ideas and feelings around 'diversity' as succinctly as she does. Thank goodness for voices like hers, and thank goodness videos like this are up on youtube. A few years ago I returned to college to collect a few prerequisites so I could be admitted to graduate school. I was astonished at the level to which everything had sunk. I felt like I was in grade school. Not kidding! For example, teachers constantly reminded kids to do the homework, continuously explain how grades are determined, but then making exceptions and granting 'extra credit' options to the slouchers who had difficulty with adult-like expectations. Of course, teachers were often in competition with the smart phone, which many students seemed to go back to, when they got bored with the lecture, which was about every other minute. We are truly living in challenged times.

    I disagree. You have to see things through the lens of time. Back in the Sixties when the policies were introduced, popular public opinion toward minorities was atrocious. Its been the affirmative actions that led to the wholesale changes in our public's perceptions of them. With the influx of non-White immigrants into our culture and mainstream, the workplace is more equitable. (maybe too much, but better than before) It may be time to reverse. or scale back these changes, but the strides would not have been realized without our efforts of inclusion during a time when Jim Crow ruled the hearts and minds of America.

    This is BS. 95% of native Americans who died as a result of the migration of Europeans to the North American continent died from the diseases they contracted from the Europeans settlers because they had little or no immunity to those diseases. As for frontier wars between whites and Amer-Indians, there were hundreds of tribes. Those tribes were all nomadic groups fighting among themselves over territories which were defined only by those internecine wars. Some Indians allied with the Europeans against other tribes. And some tribes carried on trade with the white settlers. Some tribes were hostile at times and friendly at other times with the settlers, and in any case, by the early 1800's a significant percentage and number of Amer-Indians were actually part white due to racial mixing. Andrew Jackson negotiated with so many "half breeds," he began to question their claim to even be Amer-Indian.

    Boz O. Yes, the American natives (Aka Indians) fought vigorously and often for all the same reasons white Europeans did (territory and resources) This is constantly overlooked and relabeled. They fought on scales large and small solely based on their ability and technology, and when they found themselves with greater technologies they (like all humans) expanded their empires and or attempted to impose them on others. Europeans were not the first nor the last to do this, they were just more technologically savvy, and were tremendous record keepers unlike that of the societies that found themselves behind the curve

    The Indians had no concept or word for the ownership of land. As I stated previously, they were 98 - 99% nomadic hunter-gatherers; whereas, the Europeans had long since moved on to the agricultural stage of human civilization in which the ownership of land along with its corollary, property rights was well developed and established in European culture. It's not racist to observe this truth. It isn't right. And it isn't wrong. It's just the way it was.

You got out and worked to help your working class family, even if you had high grades all through the 10 years of school you had to to at that time. That was when parents had an average of 6 kids, so the eldest worked as soon as they were legally able. My point, there isn't 20 jobs to choose from any more and employers want qualifications. And, over all these years, there are less and less apprenticeships for those who were more interested in and suitable for those types of jobs.

    Antipodean33 - You have a good grasp of grammar and rationality. You work close to reality - the world will punish you immediately for making mistakes while laying bricks. An immediate rapport of feedback: reward and punishment and learning improved ways. Idealistic philosophies used to fly to airy abstractions at least in a postive, life-affirming, beautiful way - God, heaven, angels, Jesus, Mary, etc. - but now descend to more hellish categories of "oppressor" and "oppressed", "victim" and "power structures", "identity politics" and "social constructs", a postmodernistic chaos without the benefit of something real to offer resistance, something to show them where they have gone wrong and where they can go right. When you get rid of the transcendent - God, LOGOS, karma, etc. - all you are left with is secular power, the only game in town. This is the ideology of resentment. You want something but don't get it so someone has to be to blame, and off you go creating abstract categories to justify your failures and emotions, creating "enemies" to overcome. It is all fuelled by emotions, and negative ones at that. This is atheistic Marxist-Leninism coming in through the back door and will lead to the same dire consequences - gulags, secret police and executions - because it is never pure enough, all resentments and frustrations will never be 100% gotten rid of. "We are always just one execution away from the perfect state". Look at the warmongering Neoconservatives in the US. They were originally Trotskyists advocating "perpetual revolution", which is now "perpetual war - see Irving Kristol.- without a higher power to answer to. I have a Ph,D. from a prestigious German university and have a son and a daughter. I do not encourage them to pursue a university degree.

    You know, they did this in China a long time ago, starting in 1966, Year One of the Cultural Revolution. Tens of millions of young people, sanctioned by the State, basically went crazy, looted and terrorized the cities, and celebrated the fact that they required little to no education at all, in order to exercise their new-found power. They became drunk with it. And underneath it all was a great and profound fear. That undercurrent lifted all their tiny little boats into an armada capable of sinking a thousand Titanics.We may ponder this question. Why is it that not one in a thousand "social Just-Us 'warriors' know this history, or understand what it teaches us. That knowledge apparently, is not necessary anymore.

    A good question, jaik. It would be fitting I suppose if we could just refer to them as illiterate, ignorant, uneducated fools. The only thing they appear to know and understand is power, and even that probably as a vague notion. Sort of like how in nature a predator uses the fear of its prey. Actually, when it comes to history, Victimology has a basis in that. History analyzed on the basis of oppressor and oppressed. I'm sure the bunches of fools would never admit that they'd love to become Oppressors, if only they knew how.

    brojo Merzetti - The amazing thing they're pulling off is being oppressive, while denying they're doing it, saying, "We don't have the power. You do." By and large, they're getting away with it. This is the most bizarre thing I think I've seen in my life. It's made me think we're fortunate that the white supremacists of the past didn't think up this gambit, but it's only because up until recently, I've been ignorant of this historical detail. It turns out this is the way some of the most oppressive regimes in history have gotten going, saying they are weak, and speak on behalf of the oppressed. This is what the communist revolutionaries said. This is what the Nazis said. Both promised a utopia. In our case, they promise reparations for historical sins of unequal societal treatment.

    Well now - they've all got their own mess to contend with. I don't think your average western entitled social "just us" warrior has a clue about international and historic communist theories. They're more in love with the French Post Modernist dysphoria. But I'll say this. Any nation with a powerful military that succeeds at keeping Identity Politics down there beneath the kitty litter tray will have full advantage when the West tumbles into its own navel and disappears altogether !

    The left is heavily represented by females. Females have been over indulged in my life time. Their behavior has become more self deserving, and using their weakness to guilt males into giving them undeserved privilege. There's no Marxist equality in their methods. Once they are expected to be equal in self determination to males, they lose their ability to leverage males and the level headed to grant them perpetual concessions.

The madness in the schools, media and elsewhere has gone too far, and like a cancer will continue to spread unless it is cut out. "Diversity is our Strength" might as well be straight out of Orwell's 1984. Nothing could be more false.

    This is the first time ever heard of Heather and of course the first time I heard her speak. At first I thought I wasn't hearing her correctly but it became clear after while. I didn't think anyone could say the things she says without being burned at the stake. I am not a highly educated person as she obviously is but I have believed much of what she says since childhood and I am almost 60 now. I saw this play out in front of my face in elementary school in the 60's. I can't say I fully understood it as a child but I knew it was not good. I witnessed first hand from elementary school through high school that any altercation between black and white, our mostly white teachers, principles and deans always sided or gave benefit of doubt to the black person. I know she didn't talk about this but it's very similar in giving preference to someone based on ethnicity. Most people who speak like this are written off and thrown on the junk pile labeled racist.

    It remains baffling that despite being ridiculed with such eloquence, the diversity industry is still prospering apparently unhindered. It's as if the passengers on the Titanic could see the iceberg in the distance, talked about it amongst themselves, warned the captain, the helmsman, the officers. Lots of polite discussions, some heated words, and the ship never changed course. Something akin to a mutiny needs to happen or we are doomed. Words, however brilliant, are showing their limit in the world we live in today.

    @@dallassukerkin6878 Yes. And they had time on their side. We don't. It's in the nature of subversion that it can take its time, eating away at the structure within the walls, out of sight. When we start noticing the cracks, we can measure them, scan the walls, diagnose the problem, count the termites, hold seminars on this topic etc. That's what we're doing now. But if this is all we do, the structure will collapse. We do not have the luxury of time, as our opponents did. We see the problem being exposed brilliantly, but these words seem to be without any visible effect. If it took a few decades to weaken the structure close to the point of collapse, slowly weakening the opposition will not prevent the collapse. Action, decisive action, is needed in the face of a widespread lunacy - as Gad Saad likes to call it - that unfortunately keeps spreading. Not instead of words, but in addition to words.

    I am a black college student, for the 3rd time. I have college debt and one Bachelor's of Science. I can attest to the difference between myself and my peers who grew up in homes or in environments where education and personal responsibility were a part of the childhood development. People will hear her and assume that she is saying that we, as black people, are not capable, when the stats are saying something both more hopeful and also more nefarious. We are capable, but our culture refuses to stare at the actual issues that handicap our future. The black culture has to accept personal responsibility within the home, then the community. If it's always the fault of an invisible hand, we have no recourse. We have to reject the road of ease and victimhood. We have to desire our place in society and achieve it by working alongside our fellow Americans. We nearly need to forget that we are black, if it is the only value we are willing to hold on to, and teach our next generation to be citizens.
