In the 21st century, an ever growing number of academic Progressives have innovated in ideology, jettisoning the economic class struggle of Marxism and replacing it with identity classes: gender, race, sexuality, religion, nationality, and ableness. Now it's (allegedly) whites (including "white adjacent" Asians and "hyperwhite" Jews), males, and Christians who are oppressors-and people of color, women, LGBTQ++, Muslims, and the disabled who are the oppressed victims.

Produktbeschreibung
In the 21st century, an ever growing number of academic Progressives have innovated in ideology, jettisoning the economic class struggle of Marxism and replacing it with identity classes: gender, race, sexuality, religion, nationality, and ableness. Now it's (allegedly) whites (including "white adjacent" Asians and "hyperwhite" Jews), males, and Christians who are oppressors-and people of color, women, LGBTQ++, Muslims, and the disabled who are the oppressed victims. With the "social justice" trinity of "diversity, equity, and inclusion," academic Progressives have returned us to the days of deep Jim Crow, with some races seen as virtuous and others as evil, the only difference being that the colors have changed. Progressive "inclusion" means including preferred races and genders, and excluding the others, as we see in hiring, college admissions, funding, promotions, and awards. Equity, meaning the statistical equivalence of races and genders, in practice means more of the preferred and fewer of the despised. Objective measures, such as standardized tests, and advanced education programs, are being cancelled by the academy, because they don't produce the desired "equity" results. Now institutionalized DEI racism and discrimination are regarded as desirable by so-called Progressive academia, as long as preferred categories benefit. Enough of this madness! Now is the time to wake up to this enormous problem before we do even graver damage-not only to ourselves individually but to our country as a whole. It's a bitter irony that those academics and their proponents who want to drive us into this new hysteria often claim to be "woke." But there is no awakening in woke. It's the sleep of reason that produces monsters, and it poses a profound peril to our republic.
Autorenporträt
Corey Lee Wilson was raised an atheist by his liberal Playboy Bunny mother, has three Anglo-Latino siblings, a brother who died of AIDS, a biracial daughter, baptized a Protestant by his conservative grandparents, attended temple with his Jewish foster parents, baptized again as a Catholic for his first Filipina wife, attends Buddhist ceremonies with his second Thai wife, became an agnostic on his own free will for most of his life, and is a lifetime independent voter.Corey felt the sting of intellectual humility by repeating the 4th grade and attended 18 different schools (17 in California and one in the Bahamas) before putting himself through college at Mt. San Antonio College (without parents) and Cal Poly Pomona University (while on triple secret probation). Named Who's Who of American College Students in 1984, he received a BS in Economics (summa cum laude) and won his fraternity's most prestigious undergraduate honor, the Phi Kappa Tau Fraternity's Shideler Award, both in 1985.As a satirist and fraternity man, Corey started Fratire Publishing in 2012 and transformed the fiction "fratire" genre to a respectable and viewpoint diverse non-fiction genre promoting practical knowledge and wisdom to help everyday people navigate safely through the many hazards of life. In 2019, he founded the SAPIENT Being to help promote freedom of speech, viewpoint diversity, intellectual humility and most importantly advance sapience in America's students and campuses.
