University excludes white males from $10K journalism grant
Bigoted academia: For the second year in a row Brandeis University is offering a racist $10K journalism grant only to minorities and women, specifically excluding white males.
The grant’s entire eligibility requirements, from the university’s press release, are quite blunt:
Applications from women and journalists of color working in any type of media — print, audio, video, online — will be considered.
Applicants must be U.S. citizens but can be reporting from abroad.
As the article above notes, federal law forbids any organization that receives federal funds (as Brandeis does) from discriminating based on either sex or race. But then, bigotry today in the leftwing community is perfectly all right, as long as you are oppressing whites or men.
I think Lous Brandeis, for whom this university is named, would be horrified by its actions.
Readers!
Every February I run a fund-raising drive during my birthday month. This year I celebrate my 72nd birthday, and hope and plan to continue writing and posting on Behind the Black for as long as I am able.
I hope my readers will support this effort. As I did in my November fund-raising drive, I am offering autographed copies of my books for large donations. Donate $250 and you can have a choice of the hardback of either Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8 or Conscious Choice: The origins of slavery in America and why it matters today and for our future in outer space. Donate $200 and you can get an autographed paperback copy of either.
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. My analysis of space, politics, and culture, taken from the perspective of an historian, is almost always on the money and ahead of the game. For example, in 2020 I correctly predicted that the COVID panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Every one of those 2020 conclusions has turned out right.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:
4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

I self-identify as an n-person. And I spend much time thinking about how my gender is socially compatible with that of others’. So I must still be qualified, right?
If genders and races don’t exist for real, how is it possible to self-identify with them? How can one want to be a spoon if one honestly believes that there exists no spoons? Being wrong is not an arbitrary value judgement. It is nature’s death penalty.
When the Liberals, the women and the minorities take over as per these biased policies that are being attempted it will not be long before they, well not them but everyone else, that the white male is at the top of the heap for a reason.
Both the extreme success on the planet and the vial abuses of power visited upon humanity by “White Males” is not by mistake, it is Darwinian if you ask me. This is destiny, it will not be intellectualized and reshaped in some phony non sustainable utopia. That is against the laws of nature and the universe, what is is what is and it is not by mistake that it happens.
Women are women, be a woman and dominate in your field of choice that you excel at, there is nothing more powerful on the planet than a woman with a talent, a focus and a cause. Get out of her way! Be a minority and find what it is that you excel at and excel at it and please ignore your social overlords that insist that you remain subjugated and a part of their slavery power domination model. Be an insane Liberal and realize that your an endangered species because he people of America recognize the counter intuitive nature of the ideology that you are attempting to sell. Look in the mirror, you are not well.
And anyone who is different, be different, and be proud of your difference no matter what others say, that is your normal, be normal and please do not allow yourselves to be devoured and ,manipulated by others who say they care about you and respect you but only use you as a political cudgel to beat over the head their political foes.
This is my prescription for our mutual success in America.
Your claimed, perceived, assigned victimhood determines your status in today’s left America.
This stuff is so crazy that you have to be crazy to understand it. More than one neuron has snarled itself up in this knot. I had a school mate who claimed to have a secondary personality, as a homosexual Polish bus driver. He was very entertaining and everyone thought he was joking. But getting to know him a bit he seemed to really believe it. I suppose that if you don’t work in the asylum, you have a much too optimistic imagination about how other individuals really are like.
Local, these, in a reasonable persons thinking, counter intuitive and destructive actions being wholeheartedly embraced and executed by the Liberal / Left are not without thought. They are not so much insane, they have decided that America specifically and its domination of the planet and the “White Males” that manifested it all and from where it emanates must be destroyed because IT is fundamentally biased. (However, you must think twice when someone insists you reject actual success)
Its an attempt at reshuffling the deck based in, once again, political correctness and social justice. These are the tools of those who can not, rather than those who can and do.
And here we have a perfect example of the “Good for me but not for thee” double standard that the Left proudly transmits to the world.

This is an ACLU lawyer who has no objectivity, where I would think that he would be all about being able to be objective and defend someone who he personally detested and THEIR First Amendment rights. IMO an ACLU firing offence, you are not what you portray yourself to be, a total fraud.
See how long it would take for him to get in court to defend himself and HIS rights.
Totally outrageous!
When the frick do we go galt?
