The U.S. Justice Department on Thursday accused Yale University of illegally discriminating against Asian American and white applicants in its undergraduate admissions process in violation of U.S. civil rights law.

The findings are the result of a two-year investigation in response to a complaint by Asian-American groups concerning Yale’s conduct, the department said in a statement.
The department said it was prepared to file a lawsuit against Yale if the school, in New Haven, Connecticut, did not take “remedial measures.”
A Yale spokeswoman said the university “categorically denies” the allegations but has cooperated fully with the investigation. The Justice Department made its findings before allowing Yale to provide requested documents, Yale said.
“Had the Department fully received and fairly weighed this information, it would have concluded that Yale’s practices absolutely comply with decades of Supreme Court precedent,” the spokeswoman said.
The Justice Department said that although race can lawfully be considered in college admissions in limited circumstances, “Yale’s use of race is anything but limited.” The elite school “uses race at multiple steps of its admissions process resulting in a multiplied effect of race on an applicant’s likelihood of admission,” the Justice Department said.
The Justice Department has previously filed legal briefs in support of a lawsuit, brought by affirmative action opponents, accusing Harvard University of discriminating against Asian Americans.
A federal judge in Boston ruled in favor of Harvard last year, saying the school’s affirmative action program advanced a legitimate interest in having a diverse student body. An appeal of that ruling is pending. The case could eventually reach the Supreme Court.
Affirmative action programs in higher education were meant to address racial discrimination. The Supreme Court has ruled universities may use affirmative action with the aim of helping minority applicants get into college.
U.S. conservatives have said that in helping Black and Latino applicants, affirmative action can hurt white people and Asian Americans.

Women in Germany feel largely unable to move about large cities without risk of verbal or physical harassment, a new study suggests. Every fourth woman reports experiencing sexual harassment in her city.
Almost no women feel safe when traveling about the large German cities of Hamburg, Berlin, Cologne and Munich, according to a study by the German branch of Plan International, a children’s rights organization.
For the study, dubbed “Safe in the City,” almost 1,000 women aged 16-71 were requested to place markers on an interactive map in city locations that they have experienced as safe or unsafe. Eighty percent of altogether 1,267 marked locations were classified as unsafe, for reasons including verbal harassment when jogging in the park, badly lit streets, stalking or unwanted touching of a sexual nature.
“Our survey shows that girls and women do not really feel safe or able to move freely in their city. On average, each of the respondents marked one unsafe location in her surrounding area,” said Maike Röttger, the director of Plan International in Germany.
“Every fourth woman has experienced sexual harassment and every fifth woman has been followed, insulted or threatened,” Röttger said, adding that the study findings were concerning.
Nighttime fears
The most frequent reasons given for feeling threatened were encounters with people under the influence of alcohol or other drugs, badly lit paths and parks and lonely areas where no help would be available in the case of an emergency.
Röttger called for action, saying that every girl and woman had a right to move about in her city freely and without fear. She said they should be included in planning and structuring their urban surroundings to make them safer.
But Röttger also called for a change in thinking about gender roles, saying many boys and men still thought it was all right to harass women. “Underlying stereotypes and discrimination are the reason why girls and women cannot feel safe,” she said.
According to the study, women felt most in danger after dark, with 806 of the 1,014 negative markers indicating evenings or nights and only 208 applying to the daytime.
A 2018 study carried out by Plan International in New Delhi, Sydney, Lima and Madrid made similar findings, with most girls and women saying they feel unsafe in those cities.

We are talking about moving, for the safety of ourselves, the safety of our families so that we can continue to articulate and activate and be activists for White well-being… in psychological defense for the psychological warfare being waged against us.
And guess who knows where we would like to move? Guess who else is looking at statisticalatlas.com?
Government funded housing to be offered to all. Additionally, the document states that the intent is to force all communities to accept new housing patterns that will place government funded housing in all neighborhoods.
“Democrats will supercharge investment in the Housing Trust Fund to greatly expand the number of affordable housing units on the market, reduce home prices and create jobs. We commit to providing Section 8 Housing support for every eligible family. We will make energy efficient upgrades for millions of low income households in suburban and rural areas.”
...this is right out of the Biden verbiage: affordable housing in rural areas.
Public housing units that save families money on their energy bills, create jobs and provide safe and healthy homes to black and other people of color ...long unresolved to this day.
[Verbatim quote from The Biden Plan: “America’s history of using public policy and private lending restrictions to close neighborhoods off to Black families and other people of color is long, painful, and unresolved to this day.’]
This will be implemented as soon as Biden or the next Democrat gets into the Presidency. You will have no recourse to stop this from happening, because the nodes of power, too many of them, are in the hands of the anti-Whites.
This is right in the Biden Plan.
...you will move your family to exurbs and rural areas to protect your family from anti-Whites; and then as soon as Biden or another individual that comes after another four years of Trump comes into office, this Biden Plan, in full, which by the way, [goes along with what] the Democrats are moving to implement, the entire Heroes Act [goes] in the spending bill.
The Heroes Act calls for an anonymous hotline where people will be able to call on you for heretical thoughts and turn you in to the FBI; so they’ll be making a list and checking it more than twice about all of those who are heretical out there, in other words, all of those who aren’t anti-White.
So, if you think that you’re going to move to some area, but you might vote for Biden because you think that’s somehow going to benefit, well he’s going to build a tenement right out where you live.
And he’s going to fill it with anti-White non-Whites.
In the Biden Plan the Democrats are openly saying -
Vote for Biden and we’re going to create section 8 housing in every rural and exUrbian area.
The former interior minister faces a possible trial for refusing to let a ship carrying 150 migrants dock in Italy last year
MILAN—The Italian Senate voted to lift the immunity of Matteo Salvini, paving the way for the country’s former interior minister and the leader of the opposition to face a possible trial for refusing to let a ship carrying 150 migrants dock in Italy last year, and bringing the issue of migration to Europe back to the fore as the continent tries to stem the spread of the coronavirus.
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) signed an executive order on Wednesday, officially declaring racism a public health crisis.
In an effort to “elevate Black voices,” the order also mandates that a state advisory council centered around Black leadership be created. Additionally, Whitmer wants the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services to have all state employees complete implicit bias training in an effort to “make health equity a major goal.”
“We must confront systemic racism head on so we can create a more equitable and just Michigan,” Whitmer said in a statement. “This is not about one party or person. I hope we can continue to work towards building a more inclusive and unbiased state that works for everyone.”

Michigan isn’t the first state to declare racism a public health crisis; Colorado and Wisconsin have done so recently as well. On a more local level, municipalities in 19 states have taken similar steps, including California, Pennsylvania and Texas.
Many of the declarations come after the American Public Health Association (APHA) declared systemic racism a public health crisis at the beginning of June — shortly after Minneapolis police killed George Floyd, a Black man.
Floyd’s death regalvanized the Black Lives Matter movement and spurred nationwide protests that have been happening for most of the summer.
Moreover, health experts have found that COVID-19 has affected the U.S.‘s communities of color at disproportionate rate.
According to The Detroit News, Black Americans account for roughly 27 percent of the confirmed cases and nearly 40 percent of its deaths, although Michigan is only 14 percent Black overall.
Michigan has 84,050 confirmed COVID-19 cases and 6,219 deaths.
Therefore, she should order the borders closed and social distancing boundaries to be put into full effect.

Anti-Racism is Cartesian.
It is anti social classification and discrimination accordingly. It is not innocent, it is prejudiced. It is prejudice against prejudice; it is hurting and it is killing people.
It is also no less true, nor contradictory of the first statement to say that anti-racism is a Jewish construct.
It is a prohibition, especially for White people, but really for any non-Jewish people from rendering social classifications and discrimination accordingly in order to maintain those classifications (prohibited, even if those classificatory discriminations are just, humane, and warranted on the basis of well reasoned patterns of human ecology).
