Documents reveal that Indiana University's 'Understanding Diversity in a Pluralistic Society' course instructs students to identify as either 'oppressors' or 'oppressed' based on their race, sex, and religion. The course materials label groups like heterosexual, white, able-bodied people, Christians, and men as 'dominant' and 'guilty of social oppression,' while categorizing LGBTQ people, women, and religious and ethnic minorities as 'subordinate' and subject to 'social oppression.' Students express concerns about being forced to suppress their identities and labeled as privileged based on their demographic group.
Indiana University is teaching students that they are inherently 'oppressors' because of their race, sex and religion, documents show. According to the school’s website, the course 'Understanding Diversity in a Pluralistic Society' prompts students to examine 'theories and models' in order to 'enhance understanding of our diverse society.
Other universities are offering courses that explore intersectionality and racial, gender, and sexual identity. For example, Fox News Digital previously reported on Princeton University's spring semester course catalog offering a Gender and Sexuality Studies program. The program consists of classes that address topics like 'sex work' and 'queer spaces.
