Prof rejects calls to resign after rebuking his 'woke' university

The economy is tanking. We recommend two America First precious metals companies. Our Gold Guy delivers personal service with no gimmicks. JD GoldCo offers a wide array of products. You can’t go wrong with either (or both).

A video in which a University of Vermont professor calmly explains his concern about “social justice” teaching on campus that reduces people to a “racial category” has prompted calls for his resignation.

Article by Art Moore from WND.

But education professor Aaron Kindsvatter, in a follow-up YouTube video, says he won’t resign, reported Campus Reform.

“Nope, not a chance, never going to happen, no way,” he said in the March 16 video. “Haven’t even thought about it.”

In the March 8 video that caused a stir on his campus and beyond, “Racism and the Secular Religion at the University of Vermont,” he said “whiteness falls under the umbrella … of critical social justice, and the thinking that informs it is so crude and so lacking in falsifiability.”

Kindsvatter said that the notion of whiteness “speaks so eloquently to our tribal impulses.” The same logic, he added, “can easily find its way to desperate persons who need a group to hate and who will adopt the suppositions that inform whiteness towards their own ends.”

He recalled first hearing the term whiteness when “a faculty member offered to help me with it like it was some kind of disease.”

Kindsvatter described the experience as “dehumanizing.”

He said the pressure to find wisdom in Ibram X. Kendi and other authors produced a “spiritual sickness” within him.

At the end of his video he asked: “Would you please stop reducing my personhood to a racial category in your teachings?”

A petition on campus calling for his resignation, describing his comments as “harmful to our campus’ community of color,” has drawn 3,400 signatures.

However, a counter petition, garnering more than 4,400 signatures, asks that Kindsvatter assume control of all diversity measures at the university.

Campus Reform reported University of Vermont Provost Patricia Prelock said in an email to student newspaper The Vermont Cynic that “we will continue to lean into our [diversity equity and inclusion] efforts, and in so doing, create further opportunities to strengthen our community.”

“We know there is anger, pain, and sadness when the lived experiences of individuals committed to DEI are denied or diminished,” the email stated.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down

Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.

For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We just launched a GiveSendGo page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.

Thank you and God bless!
