“Peak Woke”
Rutgers University chancellor and provost apologize for condemning rise in anti-Semitic attacks
Apparently, higher education in America has been so poisoned by the radical left that condemning a rise in physical attacks on innocent American Jews is now forbidden — unless one simultaneously indicates support for the very cause being advocated by the groups most prominent in the current attacks.
The Left wants ‘racial accountability,’ and that can only mean one very bad thing that should never happen on a national level
Liberal activists say they want a “conversation about a race” — they’ve been saying that for decades — but they rarely ever get around to explicitly stating what the point of that conversation is.
Washington Post liberal writer Christine Emba got sort of close, though. She wrote Wednesday that conservatives oppose critical race theory being taught in public schools, not because there’s anything wrong with it academically (though of course there is) but because it “might result in a real rethinking of the order of things, which might result in culpability, which might result in recognition that recompense is needed.”
There it is. Compensation. She also suggests “racial accountability.”
How the Emphasis on Race is Dividing America
Complaints over the Jaguars signing Tim Tebow while Colin Kaepernick is still sidelined demonstrate the dangers.
Spanish postal service blasted for ‘tone-deaf’ anti-racist campaign featuring black stamps worth LESS than white ones

‘Systemic Racism’ Smuggles Its Way Into 127 TV Episodes
Goal number 21 of the 1963 communist goals is, “Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.” Well done, komrades.
In the year since the death of George Floyd, Hollywood has churned out 127 episodes of various TV shows promoting either “systemic racism,” BLM, or defunding the police.
This is the month I cut the cord.
The Child Soldiers of Portland
Famously the “whitest city in America,” Portland has become the unlikely headquarters of race radicalism in the United States. The city has elevated white guilt into a civic religion; its citizens have developed rituals, devotions, and self-criticisms to fight “systemic racism” and “white supremacy.” The culminating expression of this orthodoxy is violence: street militias, calling themselves “antiracists” and “antifascists,” smash windows and torch the property of anyone transgressing the new moral law.
‘If you’re a cis man do you need a plaid shirt?’: NYC rolls out bizarre gender identity training video for employees
All New York City employees are now required to sit through a remarkably predictable video explaining the creative nuances of gender identity, as part of mandated sexual harassment training.
The instructional footage is part of an online sexual harassment prevention training module created by the NYC Commission on Human Rights. All city employees are required by law to take the instructional course.
‘Equity’ is just racial discrimination by another name
In Biden’s America, treating people differently based on the colour of their skin is back on the agenda.

EXCLUSIVE: Leaked State Department Memo Indicates Official Support for BLM Agenda
A source within the Biden State Department wishing to remain anonymous has shared with Human Events News a document that indicates that all U.S. “Diplomatic and Consular posts” are being encouraged to display shows of support for Black Lives Matter on Tuesday, May 25, the one-year anniversary of George Floyd’s death. The memo reads in part, “The Department supports the use of the term ‘Black Lives Matter’ in messaging content, speeches, and other diplomatic engagements with foreign audiences to advance racial equity and access to justice on May 25 and beyond (italics added) We encourage posts to focus on the need to eliminate systemic racism and its continued impact.”
One year after George Floyd’s death, where does ‘defund the police’ stand in Canada?
Julius Haag, a sociology and criminology professor at the University of Toronto, told CTV’s Your Morning on Tuesday that no Canadian cities have successfully defunded their police force to date. However, he says there continues to be some momentum to potentially do so in certain regions.
