(Joerg Carstensen/dpa via AP) At Oregon State University, they’re trying to improve faculty perspective.
Hence, the school recently held a five-day seminar for its educators.
Conducted by Dr. Tenisha Tevis and Dr. Dwaine Plaza, the symposium was a multi-point exploration.
As advertised on OSU’s site , the training built “on the tenets of the 2020 faculty senate pledge to [the school’s] Black students.”
As such, participation “[allowed] faculty to engage in issues of whiteness and systemic racism in the institution as well as more broadly in the United States.”
From the sound of things, whiteness is a weed: Faculty will explore how whiteness in the United States has created systemic opportunities for some while naturalizing the exclusion of others. This seminar responds to resistance and transformation movements associated with the Black Lives Matter movement. The opportunity for a high impact outcome is linked to timely delivery, one where white people are experiencing a greater awareness of systemic racism and are responding with a will to “do something.” Dr. Dwaine is passionate about social justice.
From OregonState.Edu : [Dwaine’s] current research looks at STEM issues as they apply to disadvantaged populations that includes people of color and women. He became involved with the ADVANCE grant team because of his skills in research design and his passion for social justice and systemic discrimination. As for Tenisha, the PhD-holder’s University of Michigan faculty page conveys the following: Falling in love with statistics and having an improved understanding of raced-based outcomes, she pursued a position to be a research analyst for a research center focused on delinquency, crime, and education, before pursing her PhD in Education. … She has illuminated the systemic tensions Students of Color, Students with Disabilities, and First-year students have to overcome during their transition to and navigation of college. She has also shed light on the confluence of administrative leadership and identity, exploring the role Whiteness plays in higher education administration; having co-developed a revolutionary approach to studying leadership education; and co-conceptualized a anti-racist leadership framework for higher education. Where race is concerned, society’s in a curious place.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
