Private School Diversity Director: ‘BIPOC Students’ Must be Protected from ‘White Gaze’ Login/Join

The Director of Diversity and Inclusion for a private school in Baltimore expressed support for racial segregation in order to protect students from the “white gaze” and promoted turning children into woke activists.

Kalea Selmon, the Director of Diversity and Inclusion at Maryvale Preparatory School, gave a presentation where she argued that nonwhite students must be given spaces away from white students and described how those who work in education can use students as activists.

The presentation was given at the People of Color Conference, which is hosted by the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS) and tells teachers and administration how to embed the tenets of Critical Race Theory into their schools. The NAIS is America’s largest accreditation agency for K-12 private schools.

In a video of part of her presentation, Selmon claims that “BIPOC spaces are sacred.” The term stands for “Black, Indigenous, People of Color.”

Selmon then goes on to say “It’s necessary for BIPOC students to have space away from white gaze and that it is absolutely okay to give black and brown students things you’re not giving white children because the white children are fine.”

In a second clip, Selmon discusses the utility of racially segregated affinity groups, saying that they can be used to find future leaders, who she refers to as “boots on the ground,” for organizing.

In yet another video clip, Selmon explains that her work is motivated by what she calls “70 over 460.” She goes on to explain that 70 is “the number of BIPOC students” while 460 was the total number of students at the school. The slide read “This is why we do this work!”

According to her LinkedIn profile, Selmon “Supervises affinity student groups with the Dean of Students” and “Chairs the Equity and Justice Committee” in her role as a diversity director at Maryvale Preparatory School. Selmon is also tasked with developing “inclusive and multicultural curricular and co-curricular programming that reflect the school’s mission and commitment to diversity.”

The school teaches Critical Race Theory to its students, with lessons for middle school students, like “The Historical Construction of Race and Current Racial Identities Throughout U.S. Society,” and “Racism as a Primary ‘Institution’ of the U.S. – How We May Combat Systemic Inequality.”

Meanwhile, teachers at the school have engaged in professional development training seminars based in the tenets of Critical Race Theory. Among the professional development training resources listed on their website are talks titled “Identity, Race, and the Classroom,” as well as “Let’s Talk! Discussing Whiteness.”

There is also a talk from Critical Race Theorist Robin DiAngelo, titled, “Healing the Racial Water: a half-day Anti-Racist Workshop with Dr. Robin DiAngelo.”

In the talk, DiAngelo presents a “systemic analysis of White Supremacy and work around Whiteness and White Fragility. Dr. DiAngelo takes participants through topics including white socialization, systemic racism and the specific ways racism manifests for white progressives.”

Maryvale Preparatory School received over $1.2 million dollars in federal money through the Paycheck Protection Program. Maryvale, which is an all-girls school, is a 501c3.

In addition to being the school’s diversity director, Selmon works with the Wells Collective, which provides diversity consulting services. The organization, which describes itself as “one of the few organizations in the United States that is run exclusively by all Black women,” consults on topics like “diversifying constituent groups,” “diversity audits,” and “curriculum development.”

“The Wells Collective is intentional about prioritizing the needs of the marginalized by changing the narrative, educating the privileged, and creating safe spaces for women of color to improve their wellbeing,” the group’s website reads.

Maryvale Preparatory School is associated with the NAIS. The accrediting organization has a history of pushing both Critical Race Theory and “queer inclusive,” transgender ideology on young students.

A covert network of concerned parents, called Undercover Mothers, has formed to fight back against the indoctrination of students at the hands of the NAIS. The organization describes indoctrination in the private school system as a form of “elite capture.”

Following exposés by the Undercover Mothers, Representative Jim Banks (R-IN) pledged to investigate the NAIS if the Republicans retake the majority in Congress. Representative Banks specifically scrutinized the organization’s role in political advocacy given its 501(c)(3) status as a non-profit.

This is, of course, perfect nonsense.

But at least this is a private school, so don't send your kids there.

When they propose this at a public school, throw a damn fit.

I'll through another word out there for her to use, "segregation."

Every white parent that continues to send their kids to that school are sorry motherfuckers. If those Karen’s and cucks had any spine they would remove their children from that toxic environment and then then watch that “school” go under.

you might be surprised at how many parents want exactly this for their spawn. I live among them and I'm no longer surprised at the cognitive dissonance displayed about what the world is like.

That official's goal is to perpetuate the job. It would be counter to her interests to declare that racial inequity has been eliminated, because then her job can be eliminated. One of the main goals of any bureaucracy is to perpetuate itself.

Then calling those “parents” sorry motherfuckers, Karen’s and cucks is perfectly fitting.

Let's not call it "segregation", that's too 1950's 1960's...
Let's call it "separation". Keep the 70 students away from the bad 460. Because obviously the 460 are the problem!
The 70 can go to a different school, eat at different restaurants, possibly drink from different water fountains.
That's what they want, well... Give it to them.

This will be an interesting study in a few hundred years or so.
"Let's see here...looks like every generation or so they want to be segregated only to have the next generation claim oppression and racism to get de-segregated and then 60-80 year later they same group wants to be segregated. Fascinating..."

Face it, the absolute dumbest, most worthless, people in this country are running large portions of the country and this is the result. Take any Forture 500 company and turn the entire management of that company over to these garbage race grifters, and that company would hit bankruptcy in under a year. Washington DC is currently a complete cluster because so many of these retarded morons are allowed to exist and participate in decision making for the country. If we don't quickly move this worthless garbage back to the Micky D's counter or pushing a mop, we're totally screwed.

The good folks at Maryvale Prep need to rethink their commitment of BIPOC.

The leaderships teams is comprised of:

Caucasian males, 2 (13%)
Caucasian females, 12 (75%)
Asian males, 1, (6%)
Asian females, 0 (0%)
Black females, 1, (6%)
Black males, 0, (0%)
Indigenous males, 0 (0%)
Indigenous females, 0 (0%)
"Of color" males, 0 (0%)
"Of color" females, 0 (0%)

How then do these senior administrators avoid harming their delicate charges with their "white gaze"?

indoctrinating activists are the extremist's that the left is supposedly so scared by.

More communistic propaganda. And so many are so willing to throw themselves at the feet of it.

We know better now than ever that the sheep are plentiful.
