UNR Seeking Racists to Combat Racism

Director of Residential Life and Inclusion paid $100k to ‘uplift voices silenced by white supremacy’

Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) are not only progressive buzzwords for segregation, racism and exclusion, but have morphed into vast taxpayer-funded boondoggles of departments and positions within government bureaus and academia. It has been well-chronicled that the progressive, self-anointed champions of DEI aren’t necessarily welcoming to diversity and inclusion of thought or even simple questions that provide government transparency.

In the latest DEI news, the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR) includes a job posting that seeks a qualified candidate as a Director of Residential Life and Inclusion. The job posting, with a ridiculous benefits package and six-figure salary, provided by our UNR source, promises to “center voices silenced by culture and climate dominated by white supremacy.” Below is the text of the ad:

We are looking for candidates who want to join this team as we continue creating an equitable environment that uplifts and centers voices silenced by culture and climate dominated by white supremacy, colonizing practices, and policies/practices that traditionally limit access to culture. Apply now to join a team committed to equity, student excellence, development, and learning!

Our source at UNR confirmed that there were many complaints about the original language in the job posting related to white supremacy and colonization practices. As a result, UNR has now modified the listing and has removed these racist references.

Last week, The Globe covered a DEI event hosted by the city of Reno which featured Senator Catherine Cortez Masto and UNR President, former Nevada governor, Brian Sandoval.  This event was billed as an “optional training program” (wink wink) for city employees who would receive over-time pay for their attendance. The Globe has since filed an open records request with the city since they refused to answer our questions.
