Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Tim Walz’s Department of Education and Department of Veterans Affairs held programs segregated by race and sexuality during his tenure as Minnesota governor.
Under Walz, Minnesota’s Department of Veterans Affairs between 2022 and 2023 advertised a series of training sessions to racial minority veterans on how to address homelessness among those who had served in the armed forces, specifically focusing on veterans who identified as “BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ and/or [a] woman,” according to materials first reported by the Washington Free Beacon. Walz’s Department of Education, meanwhile, held “restorative justice” trainings in 2022, with one session explicitly barring white people from attending.
Straight white males could technically attend the trainings held by Walz’s Department of Veterans Affairs, but only if they were willing to serve as a “stakeholder or ally” to non-white LGBT veterans, according to the Free Beacon. The department paid the training’s attendees $50 an hour.
