OU President Harroz 'has literally staked his career' on Marxist DEI Discrimination

“Through his leadership, we have instituted some university-wide initiatives.” - VP of OU DEI

If for some reason you still think that OU President Joseph Harroz is an unwitting passenger on the OU’s Neo-Marxist dive with DIE into wOKeU, I submit the following interview in Diverse Issues in Higher Education with OU Vice President of Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion, Dr. Belinda Higgs Hyppolite.

Dr. Belinda Higgs Hyppolite, vice president of diversity, equity and inclusion and chief diversity officer, says Harroz has made DEI his number one goal and part of the university’s strategic plan.

“He [OU President Joseph Harroz] has literally staked his career on making sure that we get this right,” says Hyppolite.

“Through his leadership, we have instituted some university-wide initiatives.”

The university’s executive officers as well as deans and department chairs have had DEI training. The campus police department has gone through intentional strategic training. A new Gateway to Belonging course will launch in the fall for all new students that will be part of the general education curriculum. Oklahoma also hosts a webinar series addressing hot topics in the community.

Hyppolite, who is part of the president’s cabinet, has received financial resources to expand her team and is in the process of hiring new directors and program coordinators. The office of DEI has designated office space and personnel on all three of the university’s campuses. There is also a new DEI center.

“I am consulted on issues that are internal and external to our institution,” Hyppolite says.

“I have direct contact with the president, which I think is really important for this position to be successful and for this work to move forward.”

History has taught us that Equity based ideologies and forms of government like Marxism and Communism, are ineffective and destructive because these ideologies deny the basic self-interest based realities inherent in human nature. Time and time again we can see that when the personal interests of those in power under these ideologies come into conflict with the rights of the individuals that make up Equity defined groups, individual rights suffer. This is what is happening at OU.

CRT/DEI/AntiRacism is just repackaged Marxism, and DEI is the campus wide equivalent of Mao’s Red Guard.

Whether it is a twice vaccinated student who get’s escorted out of class by police for not wearing a mask, or it is the college freshman that gets put through a university-wide struggle session by the OU Daily for something they posted when they were a sophomore in high school, Discrimination and Exclusion of the rights of individual students, faculty, and staff are the sacrifices necessary to create the Equity required by “Diversity” and “Inclusion.”

What this tells us about OU is that if Joseph Harroz's paycheck and career are on the line, he will never back down from his support of the Neo-Marxist Cultural Revolution he started at OU, no matter what evidence is produced to show it is destructive to the students he is charged with educating. Too much money, time, and personal political capital has been invested in his Division of Ideological Enforcement for him to back away from it and reform it.

Do not fool yourself into believing that calling out professors - who are required to implement and enforce this secular Woke religion at OU by Harroz and DEI - will move the scales. There is absolutely nothing anyone can do to stop this discriminatory agenda as long as Harroz is protecting his own career and legacy by protecting and expanding DEI.

So, if Dr. Hippolite is right, and Joseph Harroz “has literally staked his career” on supporting and implementing the Neo-Marxist, ethnocentric viewpoint discrimination required by OU’s Division of Ideological Enforcement, it is time to hold him accountable for it - because he didn’t get it right.

In fact, he has gotten it very, very wrong.
