Every academic field must have the same amounts and combinations of diversity, apparently.

The College Fix reports:

    Medieval Studies scholars deem field too white

Then African studies must be too black, and Mexican studies too brown.

I agree. We must put more emphasis on Attila, Timur and the Khans.

And we would be remiss, lest we remember Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra, when the walls fell.

A meme I am seeing all over the place, a zeitgeist that is being pushed everywhere - is the need to stop "whiteness".

I recall reading times when Kulaks and Jews received similar memes being pushed by their academicians and politicians and cultural shapers.

Somehow this people think that kind of thing cannot happen here.

But it will

History and the history of nations where a population has given itself over to wickedness testify to that truth.  Such people are paralyzed in doing what is necessary to save themselves, because they refuse to believe that such craziness could actually become legal policy.

Of course those who remember Rhodesia could tell you all about it.  Some white farmers from South Africa could tell you about it today.
