A Minnesota Catholic college canceled an event because every one of the 29 speakers was a white woman, according to a Monday report.
St. Catherine’s University in St. Paul, Minn., which boasts a women-only undergraduate program, canceled an event named “The Leadership Imperative: Rise to Your Purpose.†The workshop aimed to “equip both emerging and seasoned female professionals with the tools they need to become impactful, respected leaders,†reported The College Fix.
The school canceled the event, stating that the speaker lineup did “not reflect the diverse St. Kate’s community of today nor the world of tomorrow we are committed to creating.†The event organizers expressed worry that the speaker selection process “led to a racial and ethnic blind outcome,†according to the Minnesota Republic.
Pictures next to 28 of the 29 speakers show they are white women. Speaker Margaret Smith does not have a photograph, but is also white.

“You guys are lucky I don’t know how to build a bomb because I would have done that,†Tnuza Jamal Hassan, a Muslim student, allegedly told investigators, reported Twin Cities. Hassan faces charges for trying to leave the country to join al-Qaeda, trying to recruit two classmates, and setting fire to nine university buildings, including a day care center which contained 33 kids.
She told authorities she set the fires as her own jihad “in retaliation for the alleged misconduct of U.S. military forces in Muslim lands.†She wanted them to kill innocent people, but sprinkler systems fortunately put them out.
