America today is divided into favored and disfavored groups by an unjust ideology that dominates our ruling class-identity politics. In this Highlight from Hillsdale College’s FREE Online Course, “Civil Rights in American History,” Dr. Azerrad explains how identity politics destroys equality under the law by creating favored groups that receive special treatment. The result is the corrosion of patriotic ties and the end of free government.

Hillsdale College is an independent institution of higher learning founded in 1844 by men and women “grateful to God for the inestimable blessings” resulting from civil and religious liberty and “believing that the diffusion of learning is essential to the perpetuity of these blessings.” It pursues the stated object of the founders: “to furnish all persons who wish, irrespective of nation, color, or sex, a literary, scientific, [and] theological education” outstanding among American colleges “and to combine with this such moral and social instruction as will best develop the minds and improve the hearts of its pupils.” As a nonsectarian Christian institution, Hillsdale College maintains “by precept and example” the immemorial teachings and practices of the Christian faith.
The College also considers itself a trustee of our Western philosophical and theological inheritance tracing to Athens and Jerusalem, a heritage finding its clearest expression in the American experiment of self-government under law.
By training the young in the liberal arts, Hillsdale College prepares students to become leaders worthy of that legacy. By encouraging the scholarship of its faculty, it contributes to the preservation of that legacy for future generations. By publicly defending that legacy, it enlists the aid of other friends of free civilization and thus secures the conditions of its own survival and independence.
The problem is they're only playing politics because they really don't care about or love people.
Equal rights = equal laws: than ofc. Noor must go to prison for murder. but he is not he is the ...
Simple and BRILLIANT! Thank you so much for taking on this deeply misunderstood topic.
Very refreshing and reaffirming. You're appreciated 🙏🇺🇸
Equity is a modern day buzzword that should be a swear word
It's the new buzzword of the left, like racism and white supremacy, meant to destroy the white race.
I think you mean "equality" and I guess if you're in a shrinking majority, you'd see it as bad...hint: it's not.
@@ritab-c492 - If that's what you are, then that's what you are. Just saying your something else doesn't automatically make you that...I mean if they "destroy the white race", then wouldn't that also end "white supremacy"? So are they right that thinking white supremacy is an issue?
@@ritab-c492 Should they ever succeed they will still blame a scapegoat for their shortcomings. It will be a hellish world with genocide of one ethnic group after another.
If I'm the oppressor class, where are all my oppressees? Apparently I never inherited them.
Most succient 4 minutes on the entire subject. 👌
Hits the nail on the head 4 sure..
Thank you 4 that....👍🙏
AOC and Talib down voted this
😂😂😆😆 right!
All non-whites with a victimhood complex downvoted this.
@@Meta_Phy but surround themselves with White’s? Fiancé too? Just feasting the non-thinking political 🐑 sheep!
I'm brown and I love America and our constitution
@@Sawedoff53 oh, good. I now feel slightly less shitty about whites being ethnically replaced via immigration because the brown person spoke up about how much they love the constitution.
Now here's a college I'd be okay sending my kids to.
The problem is that when they graduate, they will have a very limited jib market options. Most people will not hire them.
@@whousa642 So start your own business. Let the other businesses die because of this ideology they choose to embrace. We need new stronger people and businesses that respect and uphold the constitution and values of America and stick with it.
@@JohnyTheWizKid // Do you live under a rock?
@@whousa642Where did you hear this? State your source please.
@@rogerhenry3481 // real life; just look at Ben Shapiro. When he graduated from Harvard, he only got a single job offer because he had written a conservative book. Got to analyze stuff little more carefully.
Thanks for sharing this with Teresa ❤️
I do wish I can compose what you just spoke. But I am not I'm just a poor man with low education. And very rough around the edges and to the point. Finding out that people don't like that at all. Otherwise how can I help with this movement? to make this country back on track. Thank you very much. Merry Christmas and a happy New years and God bless.
Brilliant! Thank you.
Anyone using the words “content of their character” without recognizing the meaning that King intended should be immediately ignored. This country’s entire history is an exercise in identity politics. It’s just a problem now that marginalized people are demanding respect and equality.
These channels from this institution are ABSURD. They have the nerve to use only the imagery of whites, but nag, gripe and moan about diversity and other groups doing the same. Their idea of America is whites only--they should come out and say it already and quite hiding behind their interpretation of the intent behind the Constitution.
Thank you..
Great video..
There should be a recycling day of congress. And an audit of all. They can keep 20% and the rest goes back to reverse taxes. Like citizens of Kuwait. Every year they get a HUGE tax return. Like 90 THOUSAND DOLLARS EVERY YEAR. Maybe this can be a percentage of how many hrs worked every yr. Give people an incentive to work.
1 day to vote, no absentee ballots, no id, no vote.
We don't have enough oil to fund something like that. The best you could do is move to Alaska and get a payout every year...
Perfect explanation
Note that not all progressively minded people support identity politics. Identity politics is a symptom of an overly sensitive society. And by overly differentiating itself it creates new divisions. Even the term 'African American' .. just call yourself Americans. Black lives matter, jist say American lives matter. It's more unifying. I think it's a vocal minority that's become accepted in mainstream discourse but the Democratic party would do themselves a great favor by tamping it down and focusing on law instead of gender and race. I assume that turns away a lot of independent voters.
Remember, for every complicated, difficult, and confusing problem, there is a solution that is simple, easy, direct, and wrong. Identity politics and its fellow traveler Critical Race Theory, are simple answers for the complicated problem posed by inequality within our society. And like every other overly-simplified solution, they are both wrong. Even worse, they are the mirror image of the thing they clams to fight: institutional racism.
And like most oversimplified minds, yours is wrong. Your entire comment is one giant logical fallacy. A solution’s value is NOT gauged by its simplicity, actually.
Also CRT and IDpol aren’t solutions, they’re means to solutions, and they’re not simple. This video is simple. “Unequal treatment is evil no matter what” is simple. Conservatism is simple. (But it’s not wrong *because* it’s simple.)
Equal rights..Equal law!
I'm in the most dis-favored group. And I give no f**cks, until someone gets up in my grill. Then I crack their face in half.
More, more!
Yes, it’s a new religion
Amen
I rather have equality in the law
Today in America the biggest problem is technocrats
Yup
So beyond loquacious diatribe. Arguing or supporting defense against stupid is futile. If you refute Mark Twain, then you are truly in unsafe water.

I know this is beside the point, but I have a very important question that I will capitalize to catch your attention, please Hillsdale: WOULD YOU ALL CONSIDER PUBLISHING GREETING CARDS? I think It would be nice to have for Thanksgiving, and you do not have any. Thank you for your consideration.
Equality is an impossibility and should never be the goal of any non communist government. Equal treatment in law is the only benchmark for "equality" we should strive for.
Equality of opportunity is possible, just, and the true purpose of the Rule of Law. Equality of outcomes, in contrast, is what Leftists seek, and will be the undoing of any just society.
@Richard B
It was a goal of communist governments. Were they successful? No. A new class system emerged with the party members being the bourgeoisie. Quotas for gender and race. Equal pay and a standardized pay level no matter the output or skill of the worker.
Where do you think these cutesy "equality" movements in the US ideological come from?
@@rogerhenry3481
I dont put very much stock in equality of opportunity. Should you be able to strive to achieve whatever you want? Yes. However, we are all naturally, situationally, or due to historical events inequal, and as such will never have equal opportunities.
@Richard B and your point?
@Richard B read my contribution from my book. YOu people like the idea of privilege, and say that poor people are poor due to lack of intelligence or working hard. BULLSHIT!! Rich peop;le are thus able to win wealth by being bought. They sell themselves, they are whores who oppress others, they pay minimum wage to their employees and say that is all they deserve, making five times off the work of them that the workers for them get paid. and you go insulting the poor and underprivileged rather than the exploiter.
In 2015, White Christians ceased to a majority and by 2045, Whites themselves will cease to be a majority overall. The Californication of the country both demographically and politically will be our destiny unless the 1965 Immigration Act is reformed. The US needs to slow LEGAL IMMIGRATION to a more historically average level - around 250-500K per year while also integrating skills based system of selection. The rise of the Middle Class in America took place during the Immigration Pause between 1925 - 1965 when our current immigration system was put in place. The Middle Class ceased to be a majority in America in 2015 as well. Do the research, a country needs a 'base' demographic group that perpetuates its values and beliefs. Conservative policies and politicians are only popular with a majority of Americans of European descent - when they cease to be a majority so to will conservative political philosophy.
Dump the music
That might be the most irresponsible 4 minutes of academia I've ever seen in my life.
You should Not be quoting CASTE SYSTEM in your lecture without actually understanding what it was, is. That's ignorance.
Equality under the law! Correct....
So if you are discriminate for race , wealth status, political preference. Religious beliefs.Is that still not all discrimination if. Your treated differently than other people.Because of Your health choices. What about the HIPAA laws. It's no one bissness about Your health records. Your right to life or abortion this is your choice right? So our own government is starting the discrimination process by giving fines to employers causing them to fire you.. If you Do no get a shot.Look up what is stated in federal EEO discrimination guidelines. They are breaking there own laws now.
Why is there evil in the world .. Easy answer.. Y is their love in the world..
I acquired a suntan from pushing carts in the Florida summer heat. I identify as the intersectionality between whiteness and tanness. …. P.S. In case you’re wondering, it was just a joke.
P. S.. love ur honesty!
He’s taking the extreme ideas of a few activists and painting the entire left as having those views. I see people do this all the time on both sides, but since we don’t talk to each other anymore no one can tell the difference. Sad honestly

Where there is Capitalism, there is politics and there is inequality and inhumanity.
When the speaker is sitting in a church as they speak, you can't possibly hope for a unbiased explanation of anything.
Politique identitaire liée aux groupes identitaires que j’appelle une philosophie identitaire à l’instar dans les pays arabes et dans les pays dits ,à tort,du tiers monde est identifiée par les membres d’État profonds qui font la pluie et le beau temps. Cette philosophie est fragile est changeante selon les mœurs donc il s’agit d’une idéologie car comme toute idéologie est changeante sauf et si on peut considérer ainsi les religions, qui sont fixées et durent ...qui se présente sous forme sinusoïdale en forme de scie et donc cela suppose qu’ils existent des gens fictifs qui représentent cette philosophie fictive et dont les intérêts sont les différents moteurs de cette pseudo-identité du groupe dominant . Par voie de conséquence , la politique identitaire est une forme apparente d’un Iceberg qui représente les caractéristiques identitaires de chaque groupe car en effet et selon les circonstance qu’un groupe fait son apparition au détriment des autres groupes si vous prenez la justice parfois il y a intérêt à passer par des injustices et que le groupe identitaire se justifie par ‘’on ne fait pas d’omelette sans casser d’œuf’’ et donc il y a une série de particularismes qui rend la politique identitaire est plus dominante et par moment si on prend les révolutions de part le monde sont un contre ce qui était admis . et donc forger l’identité de toute une société est tributaire des classes et la lutte des classes car à supposer toutes les classes existent il y a certainement des classes qui font surface pour la facilité d’adhésion à ces classes et finalement l’identité se forge sur cet aspect de représentation . Toutes les guerres civiles sont un affrontement entre les ethnies mais aussi entre les classes et entre les groupes identitaires qui à partir de cette donne passe d’un fond intérieur à un fond externe qui se manifeste par une géographie et si on se projette il y a colonisation des esprits et donc une forme de robotisation par les différentes façons dont l’emprise du cerveau des humains à l’instar au Maroc Algérie Égypte ,il y a des problèmes ethniques où des minorités ont plus droit au chapitre qui organisent la société et cette façon pousse vers une libération des esprits qui passe donc par des guerres civiles transfrontalières car se libérer non du pouvoir en place aussi dictatorial qu’il peut être mais de cette identité du groupe qui ont accès aux cerveaux des humains sans que l’État comme police qui sait beaucoup de choses justes ou fausses,peut stopper cette hémorragie identitaire ethnique ; le casus belli est toujours trouvé ,ici c’est la question du Sahara occidental qui engendrerait automatiquement ce mouvement de se libérer de cette identité du groupe identitaire protégé par l’État même afin que les citoyens ont de quoi s’occuper et que les membres d’État profond volent tout en toute tranquillité ici comme aux USA l’État représenté par ses constitutions qui ont d’apparence une valeur de conscience qui ne peuvent s’appliquer car la pesanteur de neutralisation est telle que personne n’ose ou avoir...c’est plus qu’une question ethnique c’est une question de conscience et si le milieu est illettré alors peu de conscience pour faire bouger les grandes lignes et don c’est une mouvance temporaire, et donc une guerre transfrontalière arabes vs berbères de Souss Massa à Ourzazete à Tizi Ouzou à Adrar
Just like jr high .
Dna do not Lie
a school that does not accept government funding but relies on grants by corporations must abide by the agenda of their rich donors.
Equality is a myth
Blame Soros
Ok, well what about those poor white guys who also happen to be black, like Ben Carson, Clarence Thomas, Larry Elder and millions of other white guys who also don't look the part?
Believe what I believe or die, said the tolerant, inclusive, non-binary victim. Lol

it is curious that my comments regarding equal pay for equal effort, an excerpt from my book was deleted twice. cant' take truth?" too much of a challenge to your ability to manipulate- HIllsdale college censors and does not practice free speech. IT must rely on funding from its corporate interests who support them, and I and my writings do not fit into their agenda.
I am struggling to take this perspective seriously because it's failing to address the facts that have prompted this "unscientific" response in society. A tighter range of group outcomes would be expected in many more arenas in an equal opportunity society than we currently find because with the large numbers at play, sampling bias would be corrected. The fact that despite this correction some groups perform very well and significantly above their proportion in society in nearly every field, while others significantly worse, IS an indication that despite an ostensibly equal opportunity system, there may be implicit biases held by the powered, gate-keeping members of that system preventing those alleged equal opportunities from manifesting into results. Apparently, many people (enough to cause a big problem) fail to understand or act on the understanding that historical or perceived group performance does not predict future individual performance... So, there are good reasons to believe that large scale discrimination may exist! In a serious, purportedly academic discussion about the sometimes seemingly wild proposed responses to this issue we should at least acknowledge what's strengthened these ways of thinking. As it is, this video is polarizing and shows no trace of analytical thinking that would usher new solutions or even a better understanding: it's simply about demonizing a large scale response or a movement. There are enough ideologues to do this already in America.... It's embarrassing for this channel.
What's wrong with "straight white men" it's a default position.. you would have to stray from that not to be one assuming Caucasian..
Hasn't there always been identity politics in this country? It is just that at this point in time, the shoe on the other foot seems to be kicking a little harder.
Bin that click/bell track sound (music?)!!! unsub !!!
just narrow-minded
& inhumane, ignorant, ...
