Racialized affinity groups are toxic and they breed toxic organizational communications and patterns. At De Anza College a public community college in California, racialized affinity groups have now been embedded into their shared governance structures including the Academic Senate which formerly was representative of academic disciplines and is now a bizarre concoction of racialized affinity groups, gender ideology affinity groups, and academic disciplines; it seems that schools are no longer focused on academics but also racialized and gender ideology-focused tribalism... it's a sad state for the students who attend such institutions that have lost their way. I raised many questions and concerns about this, but they were all ignored and I was accused of attacking racialized affinity groups for asking critical questions. You can read more about those questions at my communications archive: https://tinyurl.com/OESJMEFacDirectorComms When they want to take your organization or school down the same dead end, push back and ask questions.
Thank you Lee! You are a hero!
Students will benefit from prioritizing the pursuit of academic disciplines. Why focus on segregation when the world they graduate into isn't segregated. I just don't understand the end game. I'd prefer to see students focusing on building skills that enrich and elevate their standard of living. There's enough ugliness in the world.
Much respect. Thank you.
