New York's Ithaca College is segregating faculty by race for an 'Antiracism Institute' that will take place during the fall and spring semesters.
"The curriculum will be based on building equity literacy abilities, starting with the recognition of systemic racism and features of white supremacy in person, policy & pedagogy. We then move into responding and redressing these features in the participants’ local contexts.
In the second semester the curriculum will focus on cultivating and sustaining communities," the website states. Faculty and staff members who are interested in joining the fall 2022 Antiracism Institute are taken to an application form where they are given the option to attend sessions every Monday for"faculty and staff who identify as people of color" or on Thursdays for"faculty and staff who identify as white."
