As extensively documented, our universities have been swept up into a new cultural movement, the so-called "social justice" movement, a key component of wokeness.
"Social justice" ideology is based on the Marxist vision that the world is divided into oppressor classes and oppressed classes as noted in the Minding the Campus article "What Happened to Our Universities?" by Philip Carl Salzman, in October 2018 and is from their Free Speech in Peril collection.
Unlike classical Marxism that divides the world into a bourgeois oppressor class and a proletarian oppressed class - that is capitalists oppressing workers - neo-Marxist "social justice" theory divides the world into gender, racial, sexual, and religious classes: male oppressors and female victims; white oppressors and people of color victims; heterosexual oppressors and gay, lesbian, transsexual, etc. etc. victims; Christian and Jewish oppressors and Muslim victims.
"Social justice" ideology leads to the rejection of oppressive institutions such as capitalism and Western Civilization. Universalistic criteria such as merit, achievement, and excellence are rejected today in universities and beyond because they allegedly disadvantage members of victim categories.
Preferential measures on behalf of victims have been adopted as the overriding and primary purpose of universities today. Course topics, course substance, course references, recruitment of students, provision of special facilities and events for "victim" categories, hiring of academic and administrative staff, all are aimed to benefit members of "victim" categories and to exclude and marginalize members of "oppressor" categories.
Sociology, anthropology, political science, English, history, women's and gender studies, black studies, social work, education, and law have all jettisoned their traditional fields of study to become "social justice" subjects, vilifying men, whites, heterosexuals, the West, capitalism, and advocating for women, people of color, gays etc., and Muslims.
Now there is a full-throttle attack on the natural sciences and on STEM fields to infuse them with "victims," whatever these "victim" preferences and abilities might be, and to turn STEM into "social justice" fields, so that there would no longer be "science," but "feminist science" that is "socially just."
How did all of this happen? What brought about this almost universal change in institutions of "higher learning"? Find out in this provocative campus guidebook Woke Free Campus Guide for Students, Faculty & Alumni: Establishing a "Woke Free" Environment on Campus by Abolishing DEI Bureaucracies and Restoring Equality (NOT Equity) in America's Universities.

Corey Lee Wilson was raised an atheist by his liberal Playboy Bunny mother, has three Anglo-Latino siblings, a brother who died of AIDS, a biracial daughter, baptized a Protestant by his conservative grandparents, attended temple with his Jewish foster parents, baptized again as a Catholic for his first Filipina wife, attends Buddhist ceremonies with his second Thai wife, became an agnostic on his own free will for most of his life, and is a lifetime independent voter.Corey felt the sting of intellectual humility by repeating the 4th grade and attended 18 different schools (17 in California and one in the Bahamas) before putting himself through college at Mt. San Antonio College (without parents) and Cal Poly Pomona University (while on triple secret probation). Named Who's Who of American College Students in 1984, he received a BS in Economics (summa cum laude) and won his fraternity's most prestigious undergraduate honor, the Phi Kappa Tau Fraternity's Shideler Award, both in 1985.As a satirist and fraternity man, Corey started Fratire Publishing in 2012 and transformed the fiction "fratire" genre to a respectable and viewpoint diverse non-fiction genre promoting practical knowledge and wisdom to help everyday people navigate safely through the many hazards of life. In 2019, he founded the SAPIENT Being to help promote freedom of speech, viewpoint diversity, intellectual humility and most importantly advance sapience in America's students and campuses.
