Just a reminder that some students in this country are being taught absolute lunacy.

‘Black girl magic’ and science’s link to ‘white supremacy’ focus of DePaul black studies coursesDePaul University students can learn about “black girl magic” and the connection between “science” and “white supremacy,” in the school’s African and black diaspora studies department.Students this upcoming semester can also enroll in “Race and Racism” and learn about “the origin of race as an intellectual and scientific project designed to organize humanity into discrete and hierarchical groups, and the implications of racial thinking.”These implications can include “racial discrimination perpetuated by rhetorical and pictorial stereotypes, discriminatory behavior and institutional practices,” according to the department’s course description.“We will utilize racial formation theory which links race and racism by showing the dynamic connections between stereotypes, prejudice, discrimination and privilege,” the latest course description for the upcoming course states.The topic of “black girl magic” is taught in at least one regular course called “Black Women Experiences,” most recently offered in the winter semester.“We will explore varying topics from black girl magic to black women’s pain and trauma,” the description states. “To do this work, we will critically examine representations of blackness in popular culture, social media, literature and fine art.”Students will also “think through black women and girls’ experiences [within] reproductive justice movements, queer communities, and beauty culture” and “question how black women and femmes survive in cultures that seek to erase them, exploit their labor and silence their voices.”
