Woke professors forced into humiliating retraction on 'false' research accusing employer of pervasive racism
Story by Hannah Grossman • Sunday
University of Minnesota academics with PhD's were forced to retract an article they wrote about "structural racism" at the institution because its claims were "inaccurate, misleading, or false," according to a note on the withdrawn article.
The article in question was written in the journal of Health Services Research by UM employees with PhD's who are focused on racial equity: Stuart Grande, is a senior Lecturer, Janette Dill, is an associate professor, and Tongtan Chantarat, is a research scientist.
Retraction Watch, a blog that reports on retractions of scientific papers, first reported that the piece was withdrawn months after the original publishing date.
The research probed into the university's diversity, equity and inclusion policies at the Division of Health Policy and Management that were implemented after George Floyd's death in 2020.

Systems are not racist, people are. If a system seems racist, the persons in charge need to be held accountable for their racist policies or conduct - even if those persons are Democrats.
Democrats or Liberals politically control many urban areas or institutions that are said to be 'systemically racist'. To resolve the 'systemic racism', Liberals and Democrats need to be fired or voted out of office.
This is where a more imaginative, opportunist GOP would be able to attract urban voters with good candidates.
