‘Green Lives Matter’ Course At University of Wisconsin at Green Bay

MRC TV – by Alissa Lopez

The University of Wisconsin at Green Bay will be offering a new course on environmentalism called “Green Lives Matter.”

The course is aimed at motivating students to support the “environmental justice movement” by “merging the civil rights and environmental concerns.” Fulfilling a general education requirement, first-year students will learn about things such as “migrant farm worker pesticide exposure” and “urban environmental harms.”  

From Fox News:

Furlong said the university’s diversity director and course professor, Elizabeth Wheat, chose the title earlier this year, as the Black Lives Matter movement built strength and members began to take umbrage at variations on the phrase.

University officials said they’re aware of the backlash they may receive for the course title, but will reportedly stand by their choice unless faced with demands from “offended students” to adjust it.

I highly doubt this title will sit well with the university’s Black Lives Matter activists and liberal community at large, considering they are always exceptionally huffy. And it won’t matter that the name was picked by the school’s “diversity officer.” BLM supporters find “Blue Lives Matter” and “All Lives Matter” provocative, and I’ve heard one too many times how those names delegitimize and snubs the mission of the Black Lives Matter movement. So what makes this any different?

Recent Wisconsin grad Nathan Fiene and environmental consultant Tracy Thomas are here to tell you.

Fiene reportedly disagrees with the “highly questionable” title, but said he supports the class material because it supposedly indicates how environmental policies are racist.

As for Thomas, she referenced that blacks historically had to live in neglected environments, telling Fox News that “‘Black Lives Matter’ and ‘Green Lives Matter’ share one common thread-contiguity.” She believes that the ‘Green Lives Matter’ course promotes the real objectives of BLM.

And if it helps smooth any potentially ruffled feathers, the professors teaching the course will reportedly be people “of color, women, and blue collar sectors of society.”

  1. What’s next? “Pink Lives Matter” for Gays? “Yellow Lives Matter” for Asians? “Red Lives Matter” for Indians?

    I’m getting sick of these Politically Segregated Commie labels.

  2. Crock of dung! These eggheaded administrators can’t describe why they support their position because it’s way too complicated for us plebs. They stand behind their marble pillars, pretend they’re important, look “official”, and, in the meantime, plow right through our Bill of Rights.

    Madison Wisconsin should be fenced in and everyone in the Capital building shot on sight. We could dole out tags, just like deer hunting. “You like my new head mount!!!” “Yep, he tried to run so I emptied my whole 30 round clip into him.”

      Cheeseheads Gone Wild!

      What’s up with your state, Millard… 🙄

  3. “…merging the civil rights and environmental concerns…”

    Sounds to me like they’re adding another wing to the commie’s army of useful idiots.
