    FIGHT THE POWER: Several Iowa Universities To Review “Diversity Scholarships” After “Civil Complaints … Filed Against Other Universities” by Equal Protection Project.

    'We are pleased to see that our actions are helping change the narrative on campuses nationwide, even those where we have not filed a complaint.'

    'The Equal Protection Project (EPP) (EqualProtect.org) of the Legal Insurrection Foundation has challenged numerous racially discriminatory programs done in the name of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, including race-based and racially exclusionary scholarships.'

    'EPP has filed over 20 civil rights complaints with the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) of the U.S. Department of Education, and other actions, leading numerous institutions to alter or drop their discriminatory practices. We recently reported how Kansas State Univ “Scholarship has eliminated the preference based on race, color, or national origin” After Equal Protection Project Legal Challenge.'

    Race based awards are illegal in our Constitutional Liberal Democracy.

    Scholarships that require particular genetics, are illegal and unconstitutional in our American System of law.

    Title VI of the Civil Rights Act “prohibits intentional discrimination on the basis of race, color or national origin in any ‘program or activity’ that receives federal financial assistance.”

    That's been the law since 1964 when the Civil Rights Act was passed.

    Title VI also “prohibits discrimination on the basis of race in federally funded programs,” and thus “applies to universities receiving federal financial assistance.”

    Again, how much more clear could it be?

    “The guarantee of equal protection cannot mean one thing when applied to one individual and something else when applied to a person of another color. If both are not accorded the same protection, then it is not equal,’”

    This could not be simpler.

    So why is this so hard for some folks on the Left to figure out? Please discuss.
