More Diversity Tyranny From the Universities, By Richard Miller (London)
It is now expected behaviour from the woke universities. University of Liverpool has issued guidelines for staff to begin "problematising" whiteness and heterosexuality, in a quest to "diversify" and "decolonise" the history curriculum. The lack of a "queer' history needs to be addressed. As noted at The Express: "Nor it is seen as sufficient to include more scholars from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) and non-binary backgrounds on their reading lists - lecturers are encouraged to discuss diversity on every module taught.
They are also told to make seminars "safe spaces" because topics such as race and gender can be "challenging" for students.
One University of Liverpool lecturer, speaking on condition of anonymity, told the Sunday Telegraph: "It's all ideologically driven, namely Empire is bad.
"Historians should have the freedom to teach what they believe is true rather than having an agreed ideology that you're not supposed to question."
While the idea of academic freedom of thought is a noble Enlightenment ideal, that has now totally gone from the modern multicult universities in the West, which while preaching against colonialism of the past, are colonised spaces themselves, enslaved to woke, multicultural, and globalist ideologies.
