  Speaker 1: and this is what he did. And so we are
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: in a state of emergency. Okay.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: White supremacist violence, it is always has been the number
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: one threat to our society. But I'm also very proud
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: that my wife was white.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: The practice club bitches all rich Ronny, Please tell me

  Speaker 1: why was I your donkey of the day.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: The way things are going, They're gonna sign an executive
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: order to make me change that intro soon. But Donkey
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: of today for Tuesday, February eighteenth goes to the US
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: Department of Education. Well, well, should I say Donald Trump's
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: US Department of Education. Now, if you haven't been paying
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: attention to what's going on in the world, because it
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: hasn't popped up on Shade Room just yet, let me
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: be the first to tell you that Donald Trump in
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: the Department of Education have decided to eliminate all race
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: based programs in schools.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Okay, and they got fourteen days to get rid of it,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: that's right.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: The Department of Education plans to cut funding for initiatives
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: that address racial disparities in education. They will penalize schools
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: that consider race in scholarships, hiring.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: And a bunch of other activities. Okay, they warned schools that.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: They risk losing federal funding if they continue to take
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: race into account when making scholarship or hiring decisions.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: Are so much as nodded to race.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: In all of the aspects of student, academic and campus life. Oh,
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: I can't make this kind of stuff up. Let's go
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: to the National Desker to report.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: Police Doze's newest target diversity, Equity and Inclusion at the
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: Department of Education, identifying seventy DEI training grants amounting to
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: three hundred and seventy three million dollars. According to Doze,
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: one such grant trained teachers to engage in self reflection
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: to confront their own biases and racism. This comes as
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: the Department of Education continues its crackdown on DEI programs
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: and policies in schools. On Friday, the acting Assistant Secretary
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: sent out a letter reminding institutions any discrimination based on race, color,
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: or national origin is illegal, adding institutions failing to comply
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: with federal civil rights law face potential loss of federal funding.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Critics to respond, what does this mean?
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: Are they going to take away funding from historically black colleges.
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: Are they going to take away funding from public schools
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: that have a Latino student union? To me, it indicates
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: just the fanatical obsession that this administration has in terms
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: of going against DEI.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: This is America twenty twenty five.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: You know, America's core values allegedly have always been liberty, equality.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: And justice.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: These values are supposed to be the foundation of American democracy.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: But they aren't, okay, never have been.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: It's liberty, equality, injustice for white men, and then there
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: is the rest of us, all right. In fact, the
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: only reason things like affirmative action exists is because government
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: needed a remedy for the effects of long standing discrimination
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: in this country. Now, somebody needs to explain to me
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: what's changed, Okay, In a country with systemic racism is
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: literally rooted in every institution, the solution is now to
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: pretend that racism and other forms of discrimination just lead
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: don't exist.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Let's go back to.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Doing things the way they were being done before these
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: race based programs existed. So let's go back to doing
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: what caused us to have to come up with the
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: race based programs to begin with. This is all part
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: of a broader agenda to remove what they call wokeness
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: from American education. And look, I don't care for wokeness either. Okay,
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: I believe most woke people just simply need some sleep.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: But the reality is wokeness and programs designed to level
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: the playing field for marginalized students are not the same. Okay,
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: you can't just scrip away those programs. That's like having
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: a leaky roof and you decided to fix that leaky
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: roof by removing the roof entirely. That would make no sense. Now,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: this is also the latest step in the Trump administration's
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: move to reshape programs intended to make things equal for
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: historically underserved populations as a form of racial discrimination.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Craig Trainer, who's.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: The Education Department's Acting Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights, said,
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: related programs and scholarships, many of which have historically helped
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: black and Latino students attained college degrees. Our fine community,
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: had come at the expense of white and Asian students,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: many of whom come from disadvantage backgrounds. Now, let me
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: read to you a quote from Craig Trainer, because this
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: is interesting, he said, and I quote. At its core,
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: the test is simple. If an educational institution treats a
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: person of one race differently than it treats another person
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: because of that person's race, the educational institution.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: Violates the law. Well, god damn, how many.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Institutions of treating white people differently and giving them preferenceal.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Treatment over every other? Other?
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: Okay, Trainer says put simply, educational institutions may neither separate
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: or segregate students based on race, nor distribute benefits. Are
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: burdens based on race. I could be wrong because I
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: am not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: But we got to these race based programs. We implemented
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: things like affirmative action to make sure that policies and
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: programs gave limited preferences to minorities and women, not just
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: institutions of higher education, with job hiring, awarding a government contract,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: to other social benefits. They had to implement these things
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: because if they didn't, white privilege would rule everything around me.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: Education is supposed to be the great equalizer, But how
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: can it be when the very programs aimed at uplifting
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: the underserved are being dismantled. Donald Trump and the Department
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: of Education are sending a very clear message and that
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: message is that few niggas right, they aren't interested in
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: addressing the real issues of inequality in our schools. Instead,
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: they would rather gaslight us, tell us we trip in
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: sweep to inequality under the rug, and then tell us
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: to act like we don't see the lump.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: So all these colleges that offer.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Scholarships and grants specifically for students of certain ethnic backgrounds,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: all that's just gone. Schools are just barred from using
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: race and decisions pretending to admissions and hiring and promotion, compensation,
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: financial aid, scholarships, prizes, administrative support, discipline, housing, graduation ceremonies,
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: and all the other aspects of student academic and campus life.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Who is going to be policing this?
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Okay, what about America in twenty twenty five should make
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: any of us believe we can trust people to do
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: the right thing in regards to prejudice and discrimination, Because
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: if you ask me, what the Department of Education is
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: currently doing is indeed prejudice and discrimination. And you know
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: the main reason we should teach the true history of
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: America so we don't repeat all mistakes. Winston Churchill once
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: said those who fail to learn from history are doomed
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: to repeat it.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: We have learned nothing, and so here we are.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: Please let Kathy Griffin give the Department of Education the
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: biggest he hall.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Please give this giant jar male the biggest he hall.
• 6:42

• 6:47
