The University of Minnesota can no longer work with a group that helped Black and Latino students pursue business degrees — or other similar organizations — after the U.S. Education Department said the partnership constituted discrimination against white and Asian students.

The U participated in a “blatantly discriminatory program designed to benefit certain favored students based on their race or national origin to the clear detriment of other students who did not have access to the program,” a September letter from the Department of Education said.

    Its not a coincidence they’re doing this as ICE has invaded their state and murdered two innocent people.

    This is them signalling that, not only do they side with Trump, but that they believe Trump will ultimately win at the end of all of this.

    There’s a total lack of leadership, direction, resistance or even a hint that any Dem politician under 45 who isnt Bernie has even the slightest idea what is happening. It leads me to believe the same in the end.

      And the timing means it will go largely unnoticed

      Trump only has the power he does because the world is full of cowards who will go along with whatever he says. If people banded together and refused to listen he would be powerless.
