Diversity agenda

Diversity, like racism, is used extensively by the media, Herald-Leader included, to advance their agenda.

Racism for condemning the white community, diversity to advance the black community and women’s interests. Need we look any further than the University of Kentucky men’s basketball program — all-black starting lineup, silence on diversity? Head coach John Calipari should be put under the same microscope as UK President Eli Capilouto. Enough said.
