Far-left UVA ‘Disorientation’ event teaches about campus racism, defunding cops
Late last week, progressive University of Virginia student groups held their annual “Disorientation” event to teach freshmen and transfer students all about racism and injustice on campus.
Organizations taking part in the session included Political Latinxs United for Movement and Action in Society, Young Democratic Socialists of America at U.Va., undocUVA, Asians Revolutionizing Together and U.Va. Beyond Policing.
According to The Cavalier Daily, though some activists complained UVA “has done absolutely nothing” to address racial issues, this year campus resident advisors “expect” freshmen to engage in a tour “centered around the history of enslaved laborers” at the school.
Leftist students want “peer-led conversations, informative seminars and classes” centered on race and racism which include the continuing push to “defund and abolish” university police.
U.Va. Beyond Policing and Student Council member Ceci Cain said “Policing in the Western world is meant to protect people that are not Black, brown and low income.” Senior Donavon Lea added that UVA cops are “mostly perpetuating harm” and said he doesn’t believe any student “would say they feel safer with them here.”
But in a demonstration of their arrogance, several anti-police activists noted they have been approached by university police department officials asking to discuss student groups’ matters of concern — but the activists have refused.
The Young Democratic-Socialists of America’s Sarandon Elliott said that when two of the officials — including the department’s diversity, equity and inclusion manager — tried to meet with her, she ditched them.

Ever notice that these groups are united around “tear down” and never uttered are the words “build up.”
The reason the girl ran away is that she doesn’t want a solution. She needs a continuous reason to act out like the brat she is.
Fear of discussing issues, Got to be fearful when you can’t defend he B.S. you push out…..have to look cool, ya, know!
Freshmen have a tour of the history of enslavement? My first question would be “do they serve beer”??

TJ is my hero, but on the subject of public education, the man was a great big blind spot.
