White Males Excluded From University of Wisconsin’s Leadership Development Program
The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh is hosting a free “Catalyst Leadership Program” this weekend, and everyone’s welcome – except for white males.
According to an email sent to the university’s faculty members and first obtained by Libs of TikTok, the program is intended for “students, faculty, staff who self-identify as Multicultural (Asian/South Asian/Hmong, Black/African American, Indigenous/Native American, Latino/a/x/e/Hispanic), Womxn, and/or LGBTQIA2S+.”
And no, that wasn’t a typo, they meant to spell “women” with an “x.”
The university noted that the program “is a great opportunity for students, faculty, and staff to gain valuable knowledge and skills specific to leadership.”
This is far from the only racial discrimination that’s going on in Wisconsin’s public education systems.
Last month, Young America’s Foundation exclusively obtained a memo distributed by Milwaukee Public Schools that calls on teachers to “de-center whiteness” in their classrooms. The memo, which gained national attention after the New Guard exposed it, included resources authored by radical leftist Ibram X. Kendi and a YouTube video titled, “Whiteness: WTF?”
As of this writing, the UW Oshkosh event is still scheduled to take place on Saturday.

Over here in corporate America, white males are surrounded with DEI messaging from our employers which is explicit that you don't look like the sort of person we're bending over backwards to hire and retain. I see newly crafted messaging every day in my inbox and on my lock screen.
One of the unspoken truths about the whole situation is that this reward of an upper middle class white collar corporate job, isn't actually such an attractive prospect that it can serve reasonably as a "goal" for any bright young person of color. So the demand for qualified workers who look like that far outstrips the supply, and I suppose it always will.
