COLUMN: Beware the ills of CRT and the 1619 Project


Bob Woodson has a quick opinion on Critical Race Theory, a framework of ideas that maintains white supremacy is embedded in all aspects of American life. Woodson calls it the “new racism” and, he says, its destructive ideology is worse than any previous forms of racism.
These comments are taken from a podcast with Carrie Sheffield that Woodson participated in last December, “Bob Woodson: Critical Race Theory is ‘more lethal than the old racism.'”
Woodson’s voice is one deeply invested in the issue, as his Woodson Foundation has practiced advocacy for low-income and disadvantaged individuals since he founded the organization in 1981. In fact, Woodson’s work as a civil rights leader and as someone who has offered advice and assistance to disadvantaged populations has given him a clear perspective on the impact of Critical Race Theory (CRT).

Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women Are a Priority for Miss Navajo Nation


Across the United States, thousands of Indigenous women and girls have been reported missing or murdered. On some reservations, this population faces a murder rate 10 times higher than the national average, with 84% of Native American and Alaska Native women — approximately 1.5 million women — experiencing some form of violence during their lifetime. And according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, murder is the third leading cause of death among Native women between the ages of 15 and 24.
There hasn’t been enough reported data on the missing women and girls, making it difficult to investigate such cases, says Shaandiin Parrish, Miss Navajo Nation since September 2019. The reports that do exist don’t adequately represent the extent of the missing and murdered population. Some databases like the one run by the Indigenous-led research group Sovereign Bodies Institute have documented around 2,300 missing and murdered individuals. Another study by the Urban Indian Health Institute (UIHI) found that more than 5,700 Indigenous women and girls were reported missing as of 2016, but that only 116 of those cases were logged with the Department of Justice.

EDITORIAL: CU faculty vote against diversity


A seemingly intractable lack of diversity blemishes the otherwise strong reputation of the University of Colorado's flagship campus in Boulder. Throwbacks looking for immersion into white, homogenous, coercionist groupthink need look no farther than the Boulder campus to find Nirvana.
This is nothing new and the faculty seem to like it.
To uphold white, privileged groupthink as an officially accepted worldview, the Boulder Faculty Assembly voted for more of it last week. They censured CU President Mark Kennedy, a man who has arguably done more than any other single person to diversity a campus that ranks among the country's least diverse in terms of ethnicity and philosophy. Incredibly, even laughably, the nearly all-white faculty censured Kennedy on the pretense they want more diversity. Their complaint charges Kennedy with “failure of leadership with respect to diversity, equity and inclusion.”

MIDDLEBURY — Anaïs Mitchell, acclaimed playwright, composer and musician, will deliver the 2021 Middlebury College Commencement address on Saturday, May 29. A New Haven native, 1999 graduate of Mount Abraham Union High School and 2004 Middlebury College graduate, Mitchell is the creative force behind the hit musical “Hadestown.”
One of the leading artistic voices of her generation, Mitchell began work on “Hadestown” — a reimagination of the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice — years before it appeared on Broadway. The production debuted in Barre, Vermont, in 2006 before it toured across New England. Mitchell gained international recognition following the premiere of “Hadestown” in Alberta, London and then New York, where it opened in 2019. Later that year “Hadestown” went on to win eight Tony Awards and Mitchell won the Tony Award for Best Original Score. In 2020 the show also won a Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album.
