National Review: Leading college Republicans and Democrats have teamed up to establish a non-profit to combat Chinese government influence on American campuses.
In its first official act, the Athenai Institute released a letter on Wednesday calling for the closure of Confucius institutes at U.S. colleges and universities, as well as for “full and public disclosure of all ties, both financial and academic, between centers of higher learning and all Chinese state agencies and proxies.”
The letter has been signed by the leadership of both the College Republican National Committee and the College Democrats of America, as well as numerous human rights groups committed to protecting Uighur and Tibetan minorities from persecution in China.
“The Chinese government’s flagrant attempts to coerce and control discourse at universities in the United States and around the world pose an existential threat to academic freedom as we know it. It is a civic and moral imperative that we protect that freedom,” the letter states. “In the fight against authoritarianism, universities can continue to benefit from the largesse of an emboldened authoritarian state, or they can stand on the right side of history. They cannot do both.” more
Begging American hating Communists propagandists to go against an American hating Communist machine of criminals who grabbed an entire country.
That will get you the rubber ducky prize at the carnival.
Cut off the cash, you boobs.
Do away with brick and mortar colleges altogether. They can easily be replaced with online education at a fraction of the cost.
Pelosi will not like seeing young Dems using their own minds rather than waiting to be told what they think.
Lets hope for the future that both parties decide to put people first rather than pilfering from the wealth of a nation.
