Princeton, Devos and systemic racism
« on: September 18, 2020, 07:09:33 PM »
So it seems an admission by Princeton that systemic racism is still a problem has caught the eye of those who control the purse strings. If you want to be woke you probably should consider the consequences. :)

Quote
Princeton University could be forced to pay back millions of dollars in federal funding — and also be fined — over its president’s recent admission that racism persists at the Ivy League institution.

Why does Princeton get federal funding to begin with  ???
In the moral, catatonic stupor America finds itself in today it is only disagreement we seek, and the more virulent that disagreement, the better.

Democrats always fund their allies and Republicans always fund their "opposition", funny that.

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.
