EXCLUSIVE — A required course for first-year students at West Chester University in Pennsylvania teaches students to resent white people, among other things.
The class forces upon freshmen the core elements of critical race theory and advances radical left-wing ideology through the diversity, equity, and inclusion agenda, according to a student in the class. Speaking on the condition of anonymity due to fear of retaliation, the student shared some of the material taught in the school’s mandated First Year Experience Requirement .
The course’s alleged purpose is to help “incoming first-year students” acclimate to college life, including analyzing the school’s “liberal arts tradition in higher education” and explaining the university’s General Education curriculum. However, after viewing some of the coursework and curricula, this is not what this course does. Rather, it teaches students to resent white people and conditions them to feel guilty about being white.
Consider some of the “lessons” from the class.
First-year students were forced to listen to the “six stages of white identity.” This “teaching” involved educating students that “white people may have not paid ‘attention to the significance of their racial identity.’ They usually don’t think of themselves as racist or even having racialized ideas, even though these ideas have been there always.”

Another “stage” is “Disintegration,” in which white people allegedly have a “growing awareness of racism and white privilege,” and this experience typically results in a “feeling of shame, guilt, and anger towards the group of origin and oneself.”
The “Reintegration” stage of “white identity” is marked by confrontation with white family and friends who are “fearful of the minority group.” This stage is “accompanied by moments of disappointment related to being rejected by those who you are trying to help.” Additionally, this stage is marked with the sentiment that “it isn’t their fault to be white.”
At another stage, “Pseudo-Independent,” the brainwashing process is almost complete, as the indoctrinated first-year student realizes that anyone who doesn’t subscribe to these teachings proves that racism still exists. Once the disappointment “from the previous stage subsides” (because most people have common sense and reject this nonsense), there’s an epiphany and a “growing urgency to continue to fight inequities in society.” This particular stage is “marked by more associations with minorities,” yet “there’s still shame about being white.”
The final two stages of the brainwashing are called “Immersion/Emersion” and “Autonomy” and read more like the transformation process of a cult than they do valuable or appropriate topics in a course dedicated to helping first-year students navigate college. It concludes with the newly reeducated white person coming to grips with his or her personal “white identity,” which ultimately energizes “the person’s efforts to confront racism and oppression in daily life.”
Additional topics this semester include educating about Black Lives Matter (the social justice group that fooled people into thinking it was helping marginalized people but instead used charitable donations to buy large mansions), gender ideology and justice, educating about “trans people in the future,” and how sexual violence is rooted in equality and disparity.
Families pay tens of thousands of dollars in tuition, and then, students are forced to sit through this radical nonsense. Again, this course is required for the youngest and most impressionable students on campus. This is obviously done to manipulate them — to mold their brains and make them feel social pressure to embrace this sort of agenda-driven propaganda as if it were normal.
This course doesn’t prepare students to enter the workforce upon graduation; it prepares them to become perennial marchers or join antifa, or at least to enter the voting booth and vote for Democrats. It isn’t an education; it’s a massive sociological experiment in mind conditioning.
It’s akin to being forced to join a cult whose goal is to increase racial tension and animosity. It is agenda-driven hate and division disguised as education.
