Univ. Wisconsin Law School Forcing Students To Endure Racist DEI Reeducation
“This ‘DEI training’ is a form of indoctrination and demeans law students based on their race.”
The University of Wisconsin law school is forcing first year students to attend racist DIE training rooted in Critical Race Theory.
The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL) issued a press release detailing the reeducation program and have demanded that it be cancelled.
Those are only a few of the “28 Common Racist Attitudes and Behaviors that Indicate a Detour or Wrong Turn into White Guilt, Denial or Defensiveness.”https://t.co/LWxXkcAfx7 pic.twitter.com/3hUByBinAh

The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL) is alerting the public to a mandatory “Re-Orientation” session happening tomorrow, Friday, January 19th, for all first-year law students at the University of Wisconsin Law School in Madison, Wisconsin. In preparation for the session, law students are asked to study a description of “racist” behaviors, including the false claim that non-discrimination is “racist” and a collection of other assertions about “whites” and “people of color” that actually are racist.
It would be one thing if the law school proposed an academic debate about such matters. But no one believes for one moment that’s what this session is about. This “DEI training” is a form of indoctrination and demeans law students based on their race. WILL strongly condemns this meeting’s proposed subject matter and demands that any racially discriminatory instruction be removed. By pushing racist ideology on law students, the University is defying federal law, creating a racially hostile environment, and harming individual student dignity.
. . . . In an email to students, Lauren L. Devine, J.D., the Assistant Dean for Student Affairs at the University of Wisconsin Law School, stated to the entire first-year student body, “Re-Orientation is intended to do just that – reorient you now that you have your first semester of law school behind you and a new semester ahead. Re-Orientation will include a presentation from representatives from OCPD, Financial Aid, the clinics, Academic & Student Affairs, as well as a follow-up to the DEI session you attended during Orientation.” The University stated multiple times that this “re-orientation” meeting is mandatory. Students were asked to review Attachment 1 and provide responses to Attachment 2, which was titled “Race Timeline Worksheet.”
The attachments assert a racist view of the world and propagate harmful racial stereotypes. The materials assert the following claims:
- Only white people can be racist.
- Advocating for a “colorblind” society is racist and “negates” the “experiences of people of color.”
- It is racist to attack affirmative action.
- All white people experience “privilege based on your white skin color. You benefit from this system of oppression and advantage no matter what your intentions are.”
- White people have a “fear of people of color and what would happen if they gained control.”
- White people all are infected with “whiteness,” “white guilt,” “denial,” “fear,” and “privilege.” Ridding white people of “racist conditioning” “will never happen.”
- “There are no exceptional white people” such that all are tainted by skin color.
- “All white people are the “beneficiaries of racism and white privilege.”
- White people should never talk about their “own story of hardship” because it “diminishes the experiences of people of color.”
- All white people “attempt to excuse, defend or cover up racist actions of other white people.”

Needless to say, people have thoughts.

This is nothing short of institutionalized thought reform. This is what the Maoist did to the Han Chinese people because they were the biggest obstacle to their power. They used different language but in the same way to demoralize the largest percentage of the population and radicalize those that would move against them.
Then they seized power and created a totalitarian one party state that could do what it wishes when it wishes without concerns for human rights and law.

Wait, MLK was a racist (b/c of "colorblindness" advocacy)? Is that what this is saying?

Sorry, the far left @ABAesq is strong arming law schools (actually, most of them don't really need strong arming) to mandate DEI reeducation for law students via accreditation standards. This is one of many reasons why I quit the ABA years ago. https://t.co/oGunvk7fX7

DEI is yet another communist weapon that emboldens the uneducated to perform even further below standard.
DIE is Cultural Marxism
Submit or die should be their moto
Fortunately, though not a law student, I am free from the need for a mandatory “Re-Orientation” session, being Chinese. I will note though, that being Chinese is considered by academia to be far worse than being white because although not white, Asians tend to work hard for success.
Subotai Bahadur
I guess the aura of hard work and studying that characterize Asians means that they are seen as whiter than white. All the attributes that mark success are now derided.
Asians and jews must now be considered “oppressors” nowadays, because they are groups that have demonstrated ability to be successful, and therefore their very existence challenges the woke progressive leftist narrative.
Instead of whites oppressing blacks it might be that blacks have an average IQ of 86 and they would do as well as a white with an IQ of 86 if they acted like the white with an IQ of 86, which is pretty well actually. It’s dismissed as acting white, but call it acting successful.
The handout is to prevent that from happening, that is, to keep blacks in chip-on-the-shoulder failure mode waiting for better whites as a strategy, as Loury and McWhorter put it.
Whites can be less white by going to class in blackface. I’m buying Kiwi stock.
I’ll be stocking up at the milsurp store’s camo counter.
Somebody give that queer fellow in the white crewneck a jacket. He’s cold.
The goal is simply to make it illegal to oppose the regime’s orthodoxy.
I thought US Code on Leprosy was repealed.
I feel so empowered! If I am so inherently evil and beyond redemption, then that opens up a whole new world of opportunities for me. Being evil is now a part of my cultural heritage, and it would be wrong for society to prevent me from tying damsels to railroad tracks. They may not realize yet what consequences might arise from freeing all whites from the shackles of societal convention.
If I am required to be less white, what color should I emulate?
Or do I just exist in this unknown cultural appropriation world where anything I do is wrong?
Nope. I’m gonna be white. At least it has a defined set of standards.
I get to wake up on time and work
I get to wear clothes that don’t droop down my ass
I can be successful, make a decent wage, and own property.
I get to pay my bills in full and on time.
All those things that blacks have never been permitted to do.
You forgot the obligatory final sentence: “Bwa ha ha!”
Is this a call for the use of blackface?
Cultural appropriation.
“Whites…ridding themselves of all racist conditioning…will never happen.”
So, by their own words, us “white folk” are hopeless racists and beyond redemption. If this is true, then why force people to submit to this DEI brainwashing?
A rhetorical question of course. We all know why this DEI garbage is being implemented.
Forget it, Jake. It’s Madison.
I drove through it once. The leftism sticks to your skin.
JR seems to be missing from the discussion. He’s the first to point fingers about his imagined “racist” commenters here at LI.
Yet, hypocrites like JR are nowhere to be found when the establishment initiates racist reeducation programs – TO BE LESS WHITE!
How is this not a “race-based hostile environment?” Someone needs to commence a class action in federal court, quickly.
Cultural Marxism Seminaries, they are not even hiding it anymore
Maybe I am in a huge minority, but I will ask anyway.
This is to LI:
