Resident Assistants at Western Carolina University Say School Has Been ‘Hijacked by Wokeness’

Resident Assistants at Western Carolina University Say School Has Been ‘Hijacked by Wokeness’

“I took the job because I wanted to help people in their college experience, not be told that men and women don’t exist and that everyone has their own gender unicorn.”

You could say this about a lot of colleges and universities in America right now.

The New York Post reports:

RAs at Western Carolina University slam school for ‘being hijacked by wokeness’

Now even the term “melting pot” is offensive, one North Carolina university claims in its racial and gender sensitivity training.

Resident assistants at Western Carolina University are fed up with the mandatory courses that include warning students not to use certain “offensive” phrases, including the famed “melting pot” description long seen as a positive metaphor for America’s diversity.

Slide presentations leaked to Fox News tell students they are “denying” the “racial experience” of another person if they say “when I look at you I don’t see color,” and that references to a “melting pot” can be interpreted as saying people “should assimilate to the dominant culture.”

In one course called “Rainbow 101,” students are shown a picture of a “gender unicorn” outlining various “gender identities” and “gender expressions” along with a video titled “Human sexuality is complicated.”

This quote from FOX News is amazing:

“It really pisses me off how what should be the one of the premier leadership positions on campus, being an RA, has been hijacked by wokeness,” one Western Carolina student told Fox News. “I took the job because I wanted to help people in their college experience, not be told that men and women don’t exist and that everyone has their own gender unicorn.”

“references to a “melting pot” can be interpreted as saying people “should assimilate to the dominant culture.”

Damn skippy they should.

Our entire basis of law and constitutional government is an expression of our “dominant culture.” Or else, what’s the point of having a country at all?

Try merely not speaking French in Paris. See who pi**es in your vichyssoise.

people “should assimilate to the dominant culture.”
No. We’re saying they should assimilate to American culture. Because it’s the better culture (or was, before Progressivism) and is the cause of all the really great things about America – like colleges (BP).

“I took the job because I wanted to help people in their college experience, not be told that men and women don’t exist and that everyone has their own gender unicorn.”
Well, then, you should have gone to a school that didn’t think that way – which really narrows down your options, nowadays. Maybe you’ll ponder that as you go out into the world and vote.
