The UNC Chapel Hill Board of Trustees agreed to redirect $2.3 million originally allocated for DEI initiatives towards public safety. This is positive news; although, one wouldn’t know it from reading the mainstream media.
The decision to remove Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) statements from the hiring and admissions process at universities within the University of North Carolina (UNC) System was a step in the right direction towards cultivating a campus life that embraces viewpoint diversity, tolerance, and free speech. Proponents of this move argue that, before legislators and...
En los últimos tiempos, el Partido Demócrata de Carolina del Norte (NCDP) ha mostrado un patrón preocupante al utilizar la afirmación de “cuestiones de procedimiento” para reprimir ciertas opiniones y grupos de una manera que se parece muchísimo a la intimidación detrás de una nube administrativa. Uno de esos casos de los últimos días fue...
In recent times, the North Carolina Democratic Party (NCDP) has displayed a troubling pattern of using the claim of “procedural issues” to stifle certain views and groups in a way that looks an awful lot like bullying from behind an administrative cloud. One such instance from recent days was the rejection of a Jewish...
Democrats are making it difficult to resist the wholesale claim that the party is dominated by those with antisemitic beliefs, given the unique rise in antisemitic and pro-Hamas rhetoric that has emerged from their ranks. The North Carolina Democratic Party provides a local window into this downward spiral. Jewish Democrats are being intimidated and sidelined...
Fue una escena verdaderamente decepcionante en la UNC Chapel Hill la semana pasada, y de hecho en muchas universidades estadounidenses. En todo Estados Unidos, los estudiantes universitarios mostraron un repulsivo desprecio por la vida humana tras la violencia bárbara perpetrada por Hamás contra los israelíes, que resultó en la violación, el asesinato y el secuestro...
It was a truly disappointing scene at UNC Chapel Hill last week, indeed at many American universities. Across America, university students displayed a repulsive disregard for human life following the barbaric violence perpetrated by Hamas against Israelis, which resulted in the rape, murder, and kidnapping of hundreds.

In a recent article published in The News & Observer, N.C. Senate Minority Leader Dan Blue, D-Wake, shared his concerns about House Bill 187. He suggests that the bill is a “covert” attempt to “erase” or “cover up” history. Blue sees the bill as an affront to proper historical education and is urging those who...
Whether one calls “wokeness” an ideology, pedagogy, or religion, it is evident that our culture, our institutions, and our politics have had their immune systems sufficiently weakened and our value propositions corrupted by this social mind virus. Examples in North Carolina include everything from displaying Black Lives Matter flags prominently from the Town Hall during...
In the 21st century, woke progressivism has inundated itself in mass culture, academic institutions, and left-wing political policy. However, in its most recent expansion it has perniciously invaded scientific institutions in an attempt to totalize a political agenda. In seeking to have a totalizing narrative, woke progressivism attempts to leave no stone unturned. The insatiable...
“Real Time” with Bill Maher has become one of the last, if not last, American television talk show to air political commentary from a left-wing perspective that is not under the guise of political correctness. While the host, American comedian Bill Maher, views political events through a progressive lens, he does not hold back from...
