So that's it, apparently: the great masterpieces recognized as such by the entire world for generations are now tainted by their supposed "whiteness" and must be censored by the Robespierre-like mob of the "woke".

"It's not merely that the Western Civilization-focused 'Introduction to Art History: Renaissance to the Present' class has been deleted, but the entire concept of 'Western art' itself will be a focus of criticism in the multiple new 'more culturally sensitive' classes that will replace it."

The inmates really are running the asylum.

"How long before the beautiful centuries-old campus buildings themselves will be 'discovered' as part of the Western tradition of architecture? Will they survive the decades to come as the 'purge' grows ever fiercer and more anti-intellectual?"

I feel like I'm living in a slow-motion (so far...) version of the French Revolution, or maybe the Cultural Revolution of Red China. God preserve us!
