The curriculum should be available to the public.

If any of these concepts are taught, the Aggie community should make its opinions heard. A&M should not embrace regressive racism as a supposed way to promote inclusion.

The list reminds me of this...

I'm not the one throwing temper tantrum about never giving athletics another dime on a Texas A&M sports board that happens to have a highly divisive politics forum (that is often the antithesis of everything A&M stands for today).

If student athletes, many of which are minorities, and athletics leadership think it's a good idea then good for them. I'm going out on a limb that Department knows more about student athletes than a bunch of complainers who say they're not giving any more money to University.
Dividing Aggies based on skin color is the antithesis of everything A&M is supposed to stand for.
Where is that in the press release? Acknowledging people for characteristics they have be it race, gender, sexual orientation, etc is not divisive on its face.


In 2002? Probably not.

In 2022? Most defiitely.

Are we acknowledging or giving preferential treatment?

I would say the Sully protests where our athletes, funded by our donations, called us old white dudes and racists were pretty divisive and pushed from the left and non-whites, unless you call standing in the way of people trying to destroy property divisive.
They aren't allowed to have an opinion you disagree with as scholarship athletes? I don't agree with that position at all.

Translation: we will teach the coaches and staff that white = bad, and black = good. Also that gay = good, Christian = Bad.

Be open about about your degeneracy and victimhood. It's not allowed to push traditional values though.

SHUT UP IF YOU DISAGREE YOU BIGOT! THERE IS NO PLACE FOR YOU STRAIGHT WHITE CHRISTIAN BELIEFS IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS! REEEEEEEEE

I have a feeling neither OP nor anyone angry about this have any idea what this move by the athletic department even means. They just see buzzwords like diversity and flip out and assume all the athletes are going to get lectured about the evils of whiteness or something.

Just being divisive for no reason.
I know exactly what it means and bolded the six modules. You'd have to be a complete dumbass to not get it.

What I find interesting about this is my own experience.

I'm a white guy. Prior to moving to Hawaii I lived in predominantly white communities/cultures.

But I was raised well.

So when we moved to Hawaii and I worked closely with local families (Polynesians, Micronesians, Melanesians, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, I can go on, but you get the point) would it be surprising that I connected with them? That I developed relationships with people of very diverse backgrounds?

Would it surprise anybody that when I arrived in the islands and began working as a substance abuse counselor, a local co-worker warned, "I wouldn't go there," referring to a very local enclaves, and Hawaiian homesteads, which may be hostile towards haoles, but I was accepted and even invited?

Only my Okinawan, CRT infused supervisor, told me that my explanation for connecting with local families-humility, respect, and love-was white privilege and I should return to the mainland to work with white people.

Would it surprise anyone that when I arrived in California and was working with incarcerated, gang-entrenched, black and Mexican young men, that a black youth who, upon first seeing me, threw up his arms exclaiming, "Oh, we got a white doc!" would go on to prefer working with me than my black female colleagues who were from the same neighborhood? One black youth gave me a hug, the likes of which I have only experienced from family members.

A Hawaiian colleague and dear friend said to me early in my career when I thought myself of such a different background and too removed from the local experience to be of any service, "Yes, it may be good to have someone from the same culture working with them, but what you bring is a different perspective."

They can have an opinion, but they can't threaten to destroy property, call racist names and threaten violence. That should be especially true of those who are paying for your scholarship, but that would mean they actually appreciate it. That is obviously not the case. No respect for Aggies, no respect for elders, no respect for A&M or its traditions.

The post I replied to referenced words (and hurting your feelings). Allegations about property damage and violence are not the same thing. You moved the goalposts and fwiw I don't think that's what happened re: incremental accusations you added.

Diversity is just a code word for fewer heterosexual white people. You can probably add in Asians as well because they aren't included with the woke mob due to them being successful in education.

Let me make sure I understand your position before I nuke it into Bolivian. Your position is that an athlete didn't offer to stab a former student? Your position isn't that Sully supporters weren't called racists?

Woke is not a winning strategy- fairness never won anything. Wokeness/socialism is mediocrity at best. UT has gone that way and now TAMU. Time for Tech to dominate not just BB, baseball, and track but football too. Hopefully this contagion spreads throughout the SEC. If so, its days as a premier conference are numbered.

I wouldn't call them a temper tantrum. That being said, I don't see equivalent between a university athletics dept program you disagree with and the posts that I find most objectionable here that gays support pedophilia. Big stretch.

Better yet, and far cheaper and less dangerous, bring all of the so-called underprivileged student athletes to Mexico or any other Latin American country and see how they are treated there, and let them see what real racism looks like.
