St. Catherine's University Cancels Conference Because Too Many Speakers Were White

St. Catherine’s University in St. Paul, Minnesota, canceled a leadership conference last fall because too many of the scheduled speakers were white.

According to a report from the Star Tribune, details are emerging on why St. Catherine’s University canceled a leadership conference that was scheduled to take place last fall. The university published a statement last week acknowledging that the conference was canceled because the speaker list was not sufficiently diverse.

“We did not feel the list [of speakers] adequately represented the St. Kate’s community or fulfilled the objective of lifting up the voices of all women,” the statement read. “While this was a tough decision, we believe it was an important one.”

St. Catherine’s President, Becky Roloff, acknowledged that the decision was made due to the lack of diversity in an email that was sent to the campus community back in December.

Hey, wait a minute! This was a LEADER’s conference. Wasn’t Maxine Waters available?

Forced diversity - or lack thereof, causes the cancellation!
If you just want to listen to blather instead of true experiential leadership, turn on CNN!

Not the speakers fault the school could not find enough diversified speakers eligible and qualified to speak on the subject.

9:01 Communists trying to demoralize America by dumping the third world in our laps. You don’t see people immigrating to China and Russia do you? They want you to feel guilty for being “anti-humanitarian” when you are really anti criminal, anti pervert, anti third world scumbag. You are not wrong. Liberals have fallen for the Communist propaganda and are doing the work and bidding for them. Just like Communists to inlist an army under false pretense. Kinda like school children protesting. Wake up!

Communism was always a fake
It was a style for government whereby the London and NY bankers got control of Russia’s natural resources and enslaved the people.

It was never pro-proletariat, but was anti-bourgeois. Just another academic cover for tyranny.

The fake Capitalist vs Communist mantra is same dichotomy trap as The fake Left vs Right.
