Let’s not be so naive to think equity is a good thing. In fact, it is very dangerous.
We learned long ago, communism/Marxism (aka “equity”) is destructive system. Read about the history on Wikipedia if you don’t already know.
Don’t be duped into believing “equity” is a good thing. It’s a value system designed to get equal resources to all people, regardless of effort, skill or merit.
Do we really want to disincentive our most talented, hardest working, and most deserving people from earning the most or being given the spotlight to affect change in the world?
To those who have it rough in life, that’s why there is family, community, charity, and the church.
Indianapolis is the second hardest city in America to move up the socio economic ladder…. Perhaps we should strive that all citizens have a semi equal chance? Is that such a bad thing to strive for?
Where’s the source on that dubious claim, JJ.
There is a big difference between communism and making sure that people the same opportunities are available to all people.
Murray – it is on both the mayors website and the Indy Chamber website – and if you have ever gone to a single event about making the city better it is continuously noted and sourced….
But I would guess your civic engagements ends at the “post comment” button
So you’re source are two dubious sources, both of which are known for making exaggerated statements. Particularly the Mayor’s office. Got it.
If I stopped today and you lived another 60 years, you still wouldn’t catch up to me in regard to civic engagement whether it be time, participation or financial contribution.
I dont recall seeing any Murray names on buildings… but okay buddy/buddette!
I agree with you. Every one should have equal opportunity under the law.
Help me understand what you mean by “semi equal” chance? Is that equity? Semi equal is another way of saying unequal right ?
I think we’d all move forward faster by idolizing hard work, excellence, perseverance, courage, etc. And our preoccupation with one’s identity a confusing and counterproductive focus for our young people’s minds.
Also, why are we promoting “anti-racism”… isn’t that an inherently racist thing want?
How oblivious (or afraid) is everyone to not be speaking out against this nonsense “anti-racism” stuff?
Use some common sense for crying out loud.
Donnie W. —
Agreed with your comments completely. We are settling for average when we
need to strive for competitive excellence.
The very people that scream for DEI would NEVER settle for that in our
college and professional sports.
I this an art museum??
Not anymore.
+1 with everything Donnie has said. This stuff is getting out of control. Of course racism is bad but shoving this DEI and “anti-racism” rhetoric down our throats with every single place or organization is ridiculous, and in many cases creating more division and racism. I saw a commercial the other day for a phone that has a more “inclusive” camera on it. Total nonsense.
I love to see people’s opinions on the internet about things they’ve never experienced and also never understood.
Did you also give lectures on how redlining was to keep the good neighborhoods good during segregation?
JJ – please point out what is being misunderstood
JJ Frankie – Bear with us! Most of us are very stupid, and many of us are just trying to become the best racists we can, but we need help from people who think about race 25 hours a day in order to achieve our goals. Since this describes you, can you help us out? Can you explain to us how redlining is something that should be more than a vestigial consideration in 2022? What about the two-fifths voting rule? Is that still important today because you say it is? Is it important for a once-respectable art museum to focus on redlining and racial justice, because these are the only things that inform artistic expression in 2022?
This new director is her race first and her role as a leader second. The outcome will be predictable.
So it’s not only OK for phone cameras to take worse photos of people with darker skin, it’s racist to advertise that yours won’t?
Nice take there, I could almost hear it over the dog whistles.
I’m sorry JJ, what have I not understood and not experienced? Do tell me. You’re the problem, believe it or not.
I donate the equivalent of your annual income to my favorite charities…. your voice has no impact in the community
JJ is probably a mid 20s Caucasian meathead attempting to convey himself as some minority – all in order to satisfy some demented urge to be victimized. He probably sells cell phone and struggles to clear 30K.
I really can’t wait to see what The Art Museum “Newfields” turns into in this woke environment.
Slow news day … a story posted last Friday makes its way into Eight@8 four days later. Huh?
Newfields embracing of postmodernist Critical Theory is an embarrassing and desperate attempt to be relevant to the political left. Its philosophical roots lie in the intent to destroy the conclusions of The Enlightenment — the ultimate political expression of which is our Declaration of Independence with its focus on EQUALITY … not the bogus destructive concept of “equity” based on grievance, guilt, shame, victimhood and individuals sorted into identity silos. Regular people are right to be outraged at this phony political philosophy. Corporations and giant philanthropic institutions that have bought into this anti-intellectual tripe should be ashamed; you have taken a first class arts institution into the abyss. When Newfields fails it will be your fault.
I am very excited for a wonderful leader such as Colette Pierce Burnette to join our community and take the helm of our very important arts organization!!
Charles – your comment about apparently being offended about cameras “taking worse photos of people with darker skin” further emphasizes the head-spinning crazy world we live in. Thanks for making my point for me. And maybe get a better camera.
