=== Why Diversity Doesn't Work (07:14) ===

[00:00:03]  Hello, I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance.
[00:00:07]  In these uncertain times, I invite you to subscribe not just to our YouTube channel, but also to our Bitchute channel.
[00:00:15]  The link is in the description box below.
[00:00:19]  You know that diversity is our strength, right?
[00:00:22]  Maybe even our greatest strength.
[00:00:24]  Everybody says so.
[00:00:25]  Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, George W. Bush, Nancy Pelosi.
[00:00:29]  I bet you every Democrat who wants to be President has said so.
[00:00:33]  And since Angelina Jolie says diversity is our strength, that clinches it.
[00:00:39]  They mean racial diversity.
[00:00:41]  If you had a university with people from every country in Europe, that wouldn't be diverse because they'd all be white.
[00:00:48]  Well, all those people are wrong.
[00:00:51]  Racial diversity means tension, mistrust, and conflict, not strength.
[00:00:56]  What would America have been like without racial diversity?
[00:01:00]  No slavery.
[00:01:02]  No civil war.
[00:01:03]  No segregation.
[00:01:05]  No race riots.
[00:01:07]  Without diversity, none of that could have happened.
[00:01:10]  And without racial diversity, there'd be no racism.
[00:01:13]  And think of all the racism we hear about.
[00:01:16]  The police are racist.
[00:01:18]  The courts are racist.
[00:01:19]  The media are racist.
[00:01:20]  The Oscars are racist, for heaven's sake.
[00:01:23]  There's systemic racism and institutional racism.
[00:01:27]  It's everywhere.
[00:01:28]  Last year, the Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission heard 25,000 claims of racial discrimination, 7,000 claims of national origin discrimination, and 3,000 claims of color discrimination.
[00:01:43]  That was about 100 cases a day.
[00:01:47]  Every year, the federal courts hear another 9,000 racism cases, and the Department of Housing and Urban Development gets about 2,000 complaints of racism.
[00:01:58]  in housing.
[00:01:59]  Every state investigates racism complaints.
[00:02:03]  Last year, New York alone had more than 2,000 race or color cases and 1,000 national origin cases.
[00:02:12]  Cities and counties have discrimination bureaucracies.
[00:02:16]  So does every branch of the military and every command and so do colleges and universities.
[00:02:22]  How many total racism cases are filed every year?
[00:02:27]  100,000?
[00:02:28]  300,000?
[00:02:29]  Nobody knows.
[00:02:31]  And how much does it cost?
[00:02:33]  Nobody knows that either.
[00:02:34]  Is the racism real or imagined?
[00:02:38]  I have no idea.
[00:02:39]  But real or imagined, America's greatest strength is clearly one of America's greatest problems.
[00:02:47]  And that's because people don't like diversity.
[00:02:51]  They like to be around people like themselves.
[00:02:54]  The 2008 National Study of the Changing Workforce found that more than half of all workers actually admitted it.
[00:03:03]  They said they wanted to work with people who were not just the same race, but the same sex and had the same level of education.
[00:03:12]  Well, so what happens when people are completely free to choose the people that they spend time with?
[00:03:20]  When they go to church.
[00:03:21]  Churches are about the only places the government hasn't tried to bully into being diverse.
[00:03:27]  And guess what?
[00:03:29]  According to an estimate published in the Florida Law Review in 2001, 87% of churches in the U.S. had congregations that were either all white or all black.
[00:03:41]  And that doesn't even count the 4,000 or so churches that are Chinese or Korean.
[00:03:48]  Here is the Korean Presbyterian Church of, believe it or not, Fargo, North Dakota.
[00:03:54]  I don't get the impression that it believes in diversity.
[00:03:58]  Robert Putnam of Harvard wanted to prove that diversity was a strength.
[00:04:03]  He studied 41 different communities from really diverse to not diverse at all.
[00:04:09]  To his horror, he found that racial diversity kills community trust.
[00:04:15]  When they have to live with all sorts of people, Americans do less volunteer work.
[00:04:21]  They give less to charity.
[00:04:23]  They don't want to carpool.
[00:04:24]  They have less confidence in local government.
[00:04:26]  They have fewer close friends.
[00:04:29]  What do they do more of?
[00:04:30]  Stay home and watch TV.
[00:04:34]  Professor Putnam sat on the data for years because he couldn't bear to publish the truth about diversity.
[00:04:41]  Well, at work, we're stuck with diversity.
[00:04:44]  Thanks to all those bureaucrats I told you about.
[00:04:47]  But if diversity is a strength, why do we spend $8 billion a year on diversity training?
[00:04:54]  If it's a strength, why is it so hard to tame it, to get it under control?
[00:05:00]  Especially when diversity training doesn't work.
[00:05:04]  This is the Harvard Business Review telling you this.
[00:05:08]  As this article reports, diversity training doesn't extinguish prejudice.
[00:05:13]  It promotes it.
[00:05:15]  You know why companies spend that $8 billion a year on something that doesn't work?
[00:05:19]  Because when they get sued for discrimination, they can tell the judge,"We tried everything." And they get sued all the time.
[00:05:28]  Companies take out insurance against discrimination suits.
[00:05:33]  America's greatest strength is like a flood or a fire or a hurricane.
[00:05:38]  You have to insure against it.
[00:05:41]  Well, how does Georgetown University deal with America's greatest strength?
[00:05:46]  First of all, it has a vice president for diversity, equity, inclusion, who is also the chief diversity officer.
[00:05:54]  The person with this impressive title is Rosemary Kilkenny, and she has an associate vice president who reports to her and who knows how many support staff.
[00:06:05]  And Rosemary gets a lot of other help.
[00:06:08]  Georgetown has an Office of Institutional Diversity, Equity and Affirmative Action, an Office of Affirmative Action and University Human Resources, a Center for Minority Educational Affairs, a Center for Multicultural Equity and Access,
[00:06:25]  a Center for Social Justice Research Teaching and Service, an Initiative on Diversity and Inclusiveness, a Diversity Advisory Board, and a Working Group on Reporting incidents of intolerance, not to be confused with the Working Group on Racial Justice.
[00:06:43]  And this stuff is duplicated in the professional schools.
[00:06:47]  There is the School of Medicine Office of Diversity and Inclusion.
[00:06:51]  The School of Medicine Subcommittee on Faculty Diversity and Inclusion.
[00:06:56]  And at the law school, well, I give up.
[00:06:59]  What do all these people do?
[00:07:02]  And how much of your student debt paid for it?

=== Black Guru's Truth (03:17) ===

[00:07:06]  Do you think a Chinese university has all this bloat and waste and stupidity built right into the system?
[00:07:14]  No. China is not cursed with America's greatest strength.
[00:07:18]  And of course, to get this precious diversity, you have to discriminate against people who aren't diverse.
[00:07:25]  White people.
[00:07:27]  Discrimination against white people goes by the fancy name of affirmative action.
[00:07:32]  But, believe it or not, there's worse.
[00:07:35]  Thanks to diversity, every so often there arises amongst us a black guru to tell white people just how awful we are.
[00:07:44]  I'd say Ta-Nehisi Coates is the reigning black guru.
[00:07:49]  He writes that in America, it is traditional to destroy the black body.
[00:07:54]  It is heritage.
[00:07:56]  He also says this.
[00:07:58]  The power of domination and exclusion is central to the belief in being white.
[00:08:04]  And without it, white people would cease to exist for want of reasons.
[00:08:09]  In other words, if we didn't have black people to torment, we would just wither away?
[00:08:15]  But Mr. Coates has competition in the business of telling us how awful we are.
[00:08:21]  Iblum X. Kendi is on his way to being just as adored and petted.
[00:08:27]  His main idea is that it's not enough for white people not to be racist.
[00:08:32]  In fact, they can't not be racist.
[00:08:35]  It may be possible for white people to fight racism, but they're always racist anyway, because racism is their natural condition.
[00:08:45]  And of course, there are bonehead whites who believe this stuff.
[00:08:50]  Robin DiAngelo.
[00:08:52]  The number one anti-racism trainer in America has become rich peddling cures for white racism.
[00:09:00]  Except there is no cure.
[00:09:03]  As she explains, racism comes out of our pores as white people.
[00:09:08]  It's the way we are.
[00:09:10]  White identity is inherently racist, she says.
[00:09:13]  I strive to be less white.
[00:09:17]  She says she has been striving to be less white every day for 20 years, but just can't stop.
[00:09:24]  What's the best she has to say for herself?
[00:09:27]  I'm really confident that I do less damage to people of color than I used to do.
[00:09:32]  That's what I can say to you.
[00:09:34]  I do less damage than I used to.
[00:09:38]  That stuff just keeps coming out of her pores, doesn't it?
[00:09:41]  So you see, this is the final blessing of diversity.
[00:09:45]  It means white people are all compulsory members of what Gregory Hood calls the church of no salvation.
[00:09:53]  We are condemned to struggle through life, trying and failing not to be racist.
[00:10:01]  Well, can you imagine what it would be like for white people to live without diversity?
[00:10:06]  You better not.
[00:10:07]  That's a forbidden thought, at least for now.
[00:10:11]  But someday, your children will ask you, Did white people really think that way?
[00:10:17]  And you'll say, yeah, it's hard to believe, but yeah, we did.
