- Many cities and counties are adopting radical policies that see every aspect of government operations through the “lens” of race.
- A network of George Soros-backed activist groups has worked to push these policies at the most local level of government, where there is little scrutiny.
- The policies are justified by citing research attributed to the University of Southern California, which actually comes from an outfit connected to the activist groups and whose work economists say is junk science.
In cities and counties across America, local politicians have in recent months begun proposing comprehensive race-based policies such as redrawing school boundaries to dismantle schools with too many white or Asian students.
They have pushed for radical changes that have roiled even liberal-leaning constituents. The justification on all of their lips is oddly similar: “Equity.” The same buzzwords appear again and again.
“School board meetings suddenly became like Mad Libs. They started repeating certain phrases, jamming them into every sentence. It was very odd,” Margaret McCreary, a Fairfax County, Virginia, parent who eventually learned that the board members were using the “equity” language to push a proposal that could move her children out of their schools, told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
“It seemed like they were all in cahoots to do something, but at first we didn’t know what to make of it, because we didn’t know what they were talking about,” she said.
Fairfax was one of multiple local governments to pass sweeping changes requiring every policy to be seen through the “lens” of race. The changes were justified by academic research from the University of Southern California (USC) that was tough for any city or county, rich or poor, to pass up: If they enacted certain policies, they were told, the cities’ economies could gain billions of dollars.
An investigation by the DCNF found that across the country, these changes are being pushed on local governments by a constellation of groups who share the same funders, including George Soros. One of those groups alone is active in 33 cities and counties covering 1 in 10 Americans.
A group tied to USC called the Program for Environmental and Regional Equity (PERE) functions to create research — at the behest of funders — that promises billions of dollars in economic growth. Another set of groups introduce the research to individual cities and counties, where it is used to justify a mandate to include “equity” in every government policy. The language is often vague and comprised of obscure jargon.
That’s the stage Montgomery County, Maryland, is at now, where an official sympathetic to the movement, Uma Ahluwalia, told The Washington Post: “It’s nice to throw that word, ‘equity,’ around, but what does it mean?”

At the South Bend mayoral debate between Democratic candidate James Mueller and Republican candidate Sean Haas, the issue of systemic racism came up. The issue came up by using the fatal shooting of Eric Logan as an example of said racism. A shooting where all evidence points to being justified and not racially motivated. It is important people remember that fact.
Republican candidate Sean Haas answered a question with the following:
“I don’t believe in systemic racism. I believe there are bad actors in every single profession, whether it’s police officers, teachers, lawyers. There are bad examples but to blanket call, an entire force racist on the actions of a few is irresponsible and frankly a lie.”
Haas was specifically talking about the SBPD. More specifically, it was a response to Pete Buttigieg’s following quote about police work:
“All Police work and all of American life takes place in the shadow of racism.’
Many local activists and Mayor Pete Buttigieg (who’s running for President don’t you know) have said the South Bend Police Department is racist. An utterly pathetic and ignorant attack on our police force that is unsupported by any facts. Democrat Mayor Buttigieg has also said he can’t fire said racist police officers while he falsely accused the black police chief of committing crimes and fired him.
Sean Haas’s answer has brought out all the same old tropes and wagon-circling and the South Bend NAACP executed their marching orders from the St. Joseph County Democratic Party to criticize Haas and defend the institutions the Democrats have had control over since the 70’s. They are loyal soldiers to the cause, just not the cause they allege to stand for. It’s all about party loyalty and not about helping their community.
From ABC 57:
However, South Bend NAACP President Michael Patton among other people in the city disagrees.
“Systemic racism is still alive and well,” said Patton. “I think it’s important for our mayor-elect to be informed and certainly to recognize that systemic racism is in our city.”
Lynn Coleman, a former mayoral candidate, listened from the audience on Tuesday night to Haas sent systemic racism. He shared his reaction a day later with ABC 57 News at the Charles Martin Youth Center.
“I just think it was misinformed,” said Coleman. “I don’t know where he gets those numbers with that information from or whatever but we have our problems.”
In South Bend, there are physical reminders of the racism that minority communities dealt with during the Jim Crow ad Civil Rights Era. The Engman Public Natatorium discriminated against Black Americans for 30 years.
It’s now a building that houses Indiana University South Bend’s Civil Rights Heritage Center. On Wednesday, staff told ABC 57 News that Haas’ comments on systemic racism are untrue.
“I consider it an opportunity to learn more about how the systems have impacted the people,” said George Garner, with the Civil Rights Heritage Center. “We know that there systems in place that deny access that deny opportunity to people of color.”
Yeah, ok.
No one is denying South Bend has a history with racism. Especially the KKK … a paramilitary wing of the Democratic Party, mind you. However, this isn’t the early 1900’s and South Bend certainly isn’t run by a bunch of white supremacists.
Also, let’s not gloss over Sean Haas being a US History teacher.
Haas responded to criticism with:
“Are there individuals that are racist? Absolutely,” said Haas. “But I think the United States by far is the least racist country in the world.”
Exactly. I’d also like to point out that the largest study on bigotry done internationally showed the US was one of the least racist countries in the world. We are far more tolerant of other races than the vast majority of the world. We are also the most diverse country in the world.
The real question is, why is the NAACP going to bat for local Democrats when they think South Bend is a breeding ground of institutionalized and systemic racism? Democrats control the city and have for decades.
- Democrats fired the black police chief after falsely accusing him of breaking the law.
- Democrats refused to release the police tapes that allegedly have police officers saying racist things.
- Democrats said they couldn’t fire racist police officers.
- Democrats have spent millions keeping those tapes from the public in spite of court rulings that some could be released.
- Democrats hired a police chief that had a history of racial issues (Teachman) before he ultimately left the department.
- Democrat policies are the ones being accused of gentrification in South Bend.
- Democrats are NOT giving women and minorities South Bend contracts.
- Democrat policies have led to an increase in violent crime the past several years.
- Democrats control the South Bend Housing Authority with a shocking history of fraud affecting Section 8 housing.
- Democrats are accused by the black community here of protecting racists and instituting racist policies.
- Democrats pushed white candidates for mayor over black candidates.
- There are 9 members on the South Bend Common Council, 8 are Democrats, 4 are black.
- There hasn’t been a Republican mayor in South Bend since 1972.
- Going back to 1926, there have only been 3 Republican mayors. Two of them served one term or less.
If there is institutionalized racism in South Bend, it is caused by the party that’s been in power for most of the century and exclusively for decades … the Democrats. Yet, the SBNAACP is lockstep in support of that party?
Sean Haas has an opportunity to use the local black community’s discontent with how Democrats have run the city to break these patterns. Black South Bend residents don’t like Democrat Pete Buttigieg. They have been vocal about it. To be honest, nationally, blacks don’t like him either. Sean Haas’s opponent is James Mueller, Pete Buttigieg’s chief of staff. So why is the NAACP ignoring their community and defending the perpetrators of systemic racism in the city of South Bend?
The South Bend NAACP is supposed to be representing and elevating the black community in South Bend. If they oppose institutionalized racism but continue to support the party that is responsible for that institutionalized racism, they have completely sold the black community in South Bend out for Democratic Party loyalty.

Amari Allen’s story was a hoax. Over the past week or two, almost every reading American became familiar with Allen, the dread-locked schoolgirl who claimed that “three white boys” snatched her from a slide on the campus of the prestigious Immanuel Christian School in Smithfield, held her down, and cut off some of her hair while mockingly calling it “nappy.”
Because of the alleged incident’s shocking nature, and te fact that Second Lady Karen Pence was an art teacher there, Immanuel Christian became (yet another) ground zero for a national discussion about race and “privilege.” And then, that discussion collapsed: Allen confessed to literally making the whole thing up.
Allen’s hoax was not some unique, one-off incident. During this past year alone, a number of internationally prominent hate crime and hate incident hoaxes have occurred in the USA. In July, popular Georgia State Senator Erica Thomas claimed that she had been shamefully attacked, in a Publix grocery store, by a white male who screamed at her and told her to “go back home.” In fact, the “white man” turned out to Cuban-American Democratic Party activist Eric Sparkes, who literally showed up at Thomas’ melodramatic press conference to rebut her story.

More recently, on September 12, 2019, someone wrote racial insults, swastikas, and the word “MAGA” throughout two restaurants owned by former NFL player Edawn Coughman. The perp turned out to be Coughman himself, who was spotted leaving the scene by witnesses. Most famously, on January 29, 2019, actor Jussie Smollett – famously mocked as the mad Frenchman ‘Juicy Smolliet’ by comedy legend Dave Chappelle – claimed that he had been attacked at 2am, in the middle of a Chicago blizzard, by two burly white men wearing Trump campaign MAGA hats. Smollett’s bizarre story was exposed as an almost certain lie when two Nigerian brothers, buddies of his from the local gym, confessed to having been paid by Smollett to stage his beating.
This year was not unusual. It was, in fact, a bit less active than average on the hate hoax front. Putting together my 2019 book Hate Crime Hoax, I was able to fairly easily compile 409 confirmed hate hoaxes, concentrated in the five years before publication. I defined a “hate hoax” as (1) an undisputed report (police report and/or reputable national or regional media story), of (2) a serious incident (generally felony or misdemeanor offense), that was (3) attributed to dislike of or bias against an out-group, where (4) the narrative of “hate” completely collapsed (with this collapse also being reported). My master list is now up to 611 case studies of hate hoaxes, containing more than 800 unique incidents. To put these numbers in context, less than 7,000 hate crimes are reported to the FBI by police departments in a typical year, and only 8-10% receive the media coverage that would make them potential candidates for my data sets.

Interestingly, hoaxes seem to be most common among the most high-profile, widely reported stories of “hate.” Of the 20-odd hate incident cases, mass shootings aside, that became truly international stories over the past decade and change, literally about half of them – Smollett, Allen, Covington Catholic, Yasmin Seweid and the ripped hijab, Air Force Academy, the “burnt Black church” (Hopewell Baptist), the little Black girl in Grand Rapids who said boorish white men literally peed on her, the Rolling Stone cover story about anti-woman rape gangs at U-Virginia, the Nikki Jolly house fire and the dead purebred dogs, the “nooses on campus” (Wisconsin-Parkside), Duke Lacrosse – turned out to be total fakes. Many hate hoaxers have a taste for the dramatic, which often betrays them in the end.
