Professor Proposes Federal Level Department of Anti-racism Department
Professor Ibram Kendi of American University proposes a Department of Anti-racism. (GOPUSA)
American University’s Ibram Kendi proposed a federal level Department of Anti-racism. Their job will be to remove people, policies, and statements deemed racist. Based on the trends of what gets labeled as “racist”, this appears to be a “group think enforcer”. Kendi suggests that this department would clear local, state, and federal policies before implementation.
From Politico:
To fix the original sin of racism, Americans should pass an anti-racist amendment to the U.S. Constitution that enshrines two guiding anti-racist principals: Racial inequity is evidence of racist policy and the different racial groups are equals. The amendment would make unconstitutional racial inequity over a certain threshold, as well as racist ideas by public officials (with “racist ideas” and “public official” clearly defined). It would establish and permanently fund the Department of Anti-racism (DOA) comprised of formally trained experts on racism and no political appointees. The DOA would be responsible for preclearing all local, state and federal public policies to ensure they won’t yield racial inequity, monitor those policies, investigate private racist policies when racial inequity surfaces, and monitor public officials for expressions of racist ideas. The DOA would be empowered with disciplinary tools to wield over and against policymakers and public officials who do not voluntarily change their racist policy and ideas.
This article was published on Politico back in 2019. GOPUSA provides a current article on the topic, an an attorney’s response. Jack Dorsey, Twitter CEO, recently announced that he will donate $10 Million to Kendi’s project, Center for Anti-racist Research at Boston University.

Remember when adversity was considered a challenge and not a badge of butt-hurt that somef**kinghow has value?
Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Department of Speech.
More like “Department of Speech Removal”.
Books will be next….
Really?!? Do we need another federal agency for anti-racism? You mean there are not enough hate crime and other laws in effect to deal with this?
If this were to happen they could better name it the FDWH, or Federal Department of Witch Hunts.
From the description, this proposal sounds eerily similar to something else I’ve read about somewhere. Now, just what was that called, and who wrote it . . . ?
Oh, yeah – now I remember. It was called the “Ministry of Truth”. The author was named “Orwell”.
Yeah.
Scary.
Very Scary.
Funny how the left ALWAYS defaults to speech and though control…Almost like it’s part of their ideology…
“speech and thought control”
Cornerstones of Communism/fascism.
Let me guess… all decisisons of the Dept of “Anti-Racism” would based purley on race? You’d think the irony would smack them in the face, but no.
Also, this comes from Boston University which produced such stellar thinkers as Sandy Cortez, so they have lost any and all credability.
Whatever happened to the 1964 Civil Rights Act?
Did that get lost somewhere? Is it out in the cold rain, whimpering and hungry?
Well, that poor thing who wants to deny the reality of free speech will just have to put up with people who won’t mince words around her.
Denial of reality is going to be a problem for this silly broad.
Wait a minute. That . . . individual is female???
Hoo, boy. She has my sympathy.
Got a beard…. Not sure what kind of female that is… maybe just identifies as one??
Not sure, but sort of looked that way at first glance.
How about a federal dept of “Beat the stupid til they learn.”?
The terms “racist” and “racism” have been so misused/overused in the past four years, they no longer have any meaning. Ibram Kendi may go piss on an electric fence.
The word “terrorism” as well.
Like “antifa are terrorists”.
The word “antifa” as well.
Like “antifa” is anti-fascist.
See, I can play your silly game too. The big difference? Antifa are terrorists. It’s true.
They should just drop the “anti” part of their name in order to make the name fit what they actually are.
Are you suggesting the people they’re targeting are military? Or are you trying to pretend they haven’t been threatening people across the board?
I don’t think even you’re that far gone you wannabe Brownshirt. Why don’t you actually defend your Tankie bullshit for once instead of deflecting, bloviating and hiding?
Stop being such a beta simp, Lars.
Four years? Try 12 years of this crap. For 8 years anyone who had the audacity to criticize The One was instantly labeled a racist. Once the left learned that it could shut down dissent by simply claiming that the dissenter was racist it became there go to course of action.
As we say in Texas:
“Oh HELL no!”
Something about tyrants and the Tree of Liberty comes to mind.
Funny how that has not been something you have been concerned with over the last three years.
I guess it is only tyranny if you think it might somehow effect you in some way.
I can see how a department of anti-racism could feel pretty threatening. Particularly to some.
Yeah, though actually, I think you mean the 8 years under obama, the most racist President since LBJ…
We all know you have no understanding of what a tyrant is (your daily juvenile rants prove that), but also that you’re perfectly ok with them, as long as they have the same agenda as you…
His definition of tyrant is “anyone who disagrees with me and won’t let me have my way”.
Commissar, if the POTUS were really the kind of tyrant you keep claiming him to be . . . you’d have been one of los desaparecidos months if not years ago. Give it a rest, OK?
If President Trump were the tyrant the left claims, these “peaceful protesters” would have long ago been stacked like cordwood…
Lars, Lars, Lars…
Trump’s administration has not been tyrannical, else you an those like you would find yourselves in a Gulag, or a jail like Venezuela’s, or dead.
You and your fellow Socialist’s desires to control my free speech are tyrannical. The threat is not from some dumb-adz’s Democratic Socialist thinking I am racist, but from you and your jackass compatriots’ complete trampling of our God-given rights as protected under the Constitution of the United States.
I don’t care what you slime-dwellers claim to think (“thinking” apparently being beyond your capabilities) about what our racial attitudes are – because “irrational” is your modus operandi.
You threaten our God-given rights, and we will not be still, be quiet, be subservient at all at all.
Do you get uncontrollable trembling when you get anywhere near a helicopter?
Asking for a friend.
Don’t you have some senior citizen’s deaths to celebrate, you twat?
Our country has a long history racist local, state, and federal policies. Some continue to this day.
Redlining for instance.
But a federal “anti racism” department seems like a nonsense solution.
OOh, come on Commissar, you’ve gotta be creaming your jeans at a bunch of unelected thought police ruling over everyone, it’s right in your wheelhouse….
“seems like a nonsense solution.”.. I think you mean “seems like an unbelievably racist and un-Constitutional solution”…
This fool Kendi teaches peoples children! Never forget that. He is either a black supremacist who wants to rule over “whitey” (not the other one), or he is a complete and utter fucking idiot… of course “and” is a real possibility as well… May he FOAD after eating an exceptionally large bag of dicks!
“Our country has a long history racist local, state, and federal policies. Some continue to this day.”.. Very true, the dems have a LOONG history of racism, from slavery itself, to Jim Crow laws, segregation, the KKK, the list goes on.. of course now they also branch out into things like the NAACP, the United Negro College Fund, racial preferences in school admissions or hiring, and many other instances where they interject race. They’ve decided that playing both sides is the best way to stoke division and maintain power, which after all has been their goal all along…
Agreed.
We are in agreement about the proposal for a new department Commissar.
I see this as just a “sounds good solution to a feels good issue”.
Having grown up in the 50s and 60s of the south, in a state which was controlled by Democrats, (This is not an attempted jab at your political views. It is just the truth as it was then), I saw racism up close, really close. I can say though, that in my view, it is better today by an order or two of magnitude than it was then.
There are a lot of good programs and opportunities for people available. I only wish more would take advantage of them.
Got any current year?
The Regressive Agenda and lars.
Explain how redlining is racist.
Go ahead. I’ll wait.
Create a new federal level department that would be able to punish policy makers and public officials who do not “voluntarily” change their “racist” policies and ideas…wow.
Every single policy from a local, state and federal level would have to go through this department which would consist of unelected officials who are “formally trained experts”…speechless.
So, basically create an amendment that would completely undo the Constitution and put pseudo academics in charge of the entire country. From top to bottom.
Yeah, that’s a great idea.
Where do people come up with these completely dumbassed ideas?
Orwell’s 1984.
Check out what happens when you don’t go along with Lars’s best friends.

Try that in Texas where most folks have a LTC.
Oh yeah, Lars’ people are cowards and bullies who don’t risk danger without a large crowd with them.
Picking on an middle-aged woman.
Weak.
A lot of young folks out there too boot.
Stick bread knife in the eye as self-defense a message would be sent….
Wait until you see what is coming up this evening.
They could call them the Thought Police.
I guess will be along with or a part of the Dprt of YGBFSM?
Goodbye America, I Loved you! 1984 was meant to be a novel/horror story…NOT a how to manual.
Racist is the word that the Socialist demoRAT merry go round uses to shut someone up that doesn’t agree with their socialist views.
This is rule #1 of the Regressive Agenda.

Lars seams to have all 13 rules on speed dial.
Is it just me, or does that “Professor” have a look on his face that’s like a puppy that just got paddled for peeing on the floor?
I thought that was a woman.
Report me to the department of genders.
“Ibram” is usually a Muslim male given name, referring to the man we know as “Abraham” if I understand correctly.
Ibrahim is Abraham, Ibram is Abram.
Soleyman / Suleiman is Solomon.
Daud is David.
Finkle is Einhorn…Einhorn is Finkle!!!
What is funny is that “Clown Show” here at the top is going to have Stacey Abrams look on her/his face when she/he gets rejected fo the post if Biden wins….
Where in the hell is Rachael Dolezal when you need her….!
A truly yougly woman. Holy shit.
This is not just the stupidest proposal ever, but also the evilest.
If we open the door to this type of censorship, it is not going to be long until we become the United Socialist Republics of America. This is their ultimate objective.
Spot on Joe! (you must be laying off the Bud Light)…
Once again, supposedly learned people are mistaking 1984 for a blueprint instead of a warning.
“To fix the original sin of racism…..”
Would never work.
“Sin” is taken care of by the church.
And the Leftist Libtards want to try to fix (their preceived) racism.
And the Leftist Libtards totally insist on “separation of church and state”.
So their premise is flawed. By their own “feewings” and “logic”.
“Racism” is the non-scientific ignorant belief that there exist separate and distinct “races” of humans, differentiated primarily by genetic and immutable types of skin pigmentation, and somehow this pigmentation gradient produces one or more “races” that are physically, mentally, morally, and/or spiritually inferior to one or more other “races”.
Idiocy.
Racism was invented to excuse bad behavior and ignorance. Arguing over which group is what and where on the spectrum is -idiocy-
And look! Marxism is fundamentally racist, declaring some “races” perpetually oppressed (weak/inferior) by “oppressors” (strong/superior).
Stop talking about race/racism. Stop giving it credence by arguing it. It is bullshit lazy thinking.
One human species of seven billion individuals. “Factory tinting” has nothing to do with inherent characteristics. But is -is- used by the lazy and ignorant to avoid real thinking and cultural effort.
