- Successful political activism relies on three lines of effort: the narrative line, the policy line, and the action line. In this video, I explain the strategy behind my current campaign to abolish DEI bureaucracies in public universities. Subscribe to my newsletter: christopherrufo.com/support.

Chris, you are national treasure. Please - get this crap out of the Department of Defense- ASAP!!!!
You're not just a scholar- you're a doer. You're an activist who out strategizes all their legions of activists. You and DeSantis are showing us how it's done. Thank you!
And as he stated, the most important part of this (IMHO) is giving Republican politicians the courage (and boy do they need it) to campaign on, and more importantly act on, this initiative. My hope is that the days of conservatives cowering in the corner, not touching this issue in the vain illusion that they will be well-liked by the other side, are at least starting to end.
The worst part, the most embarrassing and shameful part is that corporate America is so completely captured. BEFORE we are done fixing universities, DEI in corporate America must also be addressed and dismantled.
Absolutely.
It's going to be a long campaign. It took generations to get to the point we're at (the long march through the institutions). It's going to take at least a generation to get out of this mess. Corporate America is full of DEI because the products of the woke academic institutions feed into corporate America. If you don't fix the source of the problem, you'll never stand a chance at fixing the downstream effects. While it might be faster to go after corporations simultaneously, the corporate issue will largely be resolved on its own if you fix the universities.
@@davekendall1338 Oh man, is that ever true. Retired from a humongous "basic apparel" company six years ago. It's far from the wokest of the woke -- not even close -- but millennial bimbettes in microskirts have pretty much taken over Marketing, and they're completely on board with wokeism, to the point of harboring snotty, supercilious contempt for many of their own customers.
I have to disagree. This started in the universities, that's the pipeline where it starts in corporations. If you just fix corporations first, you're not getting to the heart of the problem and for every corporate DEI knucklehead you remove, they'll be 2 more to replace. Clean up the universities and you cut the head off the snake. Then go to the corporations to finish it off. One thing I think Chris did leave out here is the electoral arm of this. The voting public must be convinced that saving the country from DEI is more important than any abortion bill. Vote D just to save abortion and you're making a deal with the devil. I'm not taking a position on abortion here, but my point is that the public needs to be educated on what the real issues are.
I am 100% with you Mr. Rufo!!!
Chris you have been given the challenge of your lifetime. Thank God you're on our side. Thank God we have you! Please fight the good fight for the rest of us! We are behind you 100%. I work in a hospital, and it's in every nook and cranny.
You're awesome, Chris. Keep fighting the good fight.
You are the man we’ve been waiting for, Chris.
Thanks Chris Rufo for all your hard work and courage!
My pleasure!
Another "I'm not a conservative but..." reply here. Wishing you all power with this. It's vital.
Chris you are truly brilliant. I really appreciate that you are using your gifts towards helping all americans. I cant think of a more important issue for us all to tackle then schools and education. Our kids are the future and we are sooo far behind the left on this problem. Thanks chris for your vision and labors. Bravo!
This is a great endeavor, but it's like trying to paddle a kayak into a tsunami. We would need a Christopher Rufo in every college and university across the country.
Shocked that you only have 37K subscribers when the work you are doing is so important. Thank you Chris
Spread the word!
Carry on, Chris! This is great - thanks for all you do!
There's a youtube channel called - The Radical Center, which has quite a few students pushing back against DEI in the school Antioch I think... you should talk to that girl. In her Psychology degree, she was being taught to place more importance or care on people of color or "BIPOC" and teach white people that they are oppressors etc...
You were born for such a time as this! Thank you Chris for explaining the unexplainable. 🔥
Christopher...look up the U of Florida's Innovation Academy. The program is headed by Education PhDs and aims to train corporate activists that will carry out CRT, Environmental and DEI narratives in the innovation space.
Nice tip, thanks
Thanks very much for your work. It's different from other figures speaking out against this nonsense because you drill down into actual policy solutions instead of just calling it out.
Wow. Thank you!
This is a really well thought out and presented concept. You make this look so easy, but set the bar so high that I'm afraid I'll make it too complicated and overthink this to death.
Appreciate it, thank you.
I pray for you to succeed in your endeavors EVERY DAY. I got caught up in twisted LEFTIST thinking in 1967 and didn't snap out of it until 2015. My life was negatively affected all those wasted years. Watch your back !!!
Welcome, friend.
Better late than never! Don't worry about those "wasted years" -- they were a learning experience. I was *born* into leftism -- daughter of a Massachusetts liberal -- and yes, I went full Student Radical in the late '60s. But my now-husband snapped me out of it way back in 1980. Deo Gratias!
SUNY just mandated a DEI requirement for every grad. Stop them Rufo!!
Thank you for reporting on this, Chris.
You should join forces with FAIR, Foundation Against Intolerance and Racism. They are perhaps more classically liberal-centrist and non-partisan, but they are firmly anti DEI and anti CRT, establishing chapters all around the US and even where I am in Canada. In any case, I strongly support your mission. Good work.
God bless you Christopher: good luck to you!
Move from talking to acting. You are awesome Mr Rufo.
DEI is two decades in the making at Universities schools of Ed including Columbia Teachers College and Harvard School of Ed and every other Ed school in America. You have to stop Pearson and the SEL consultants. It is a major edu industry and it is covert and pervasive.
Tell me more about Pearson! My younger son, a teacher in training, has applied for several jobs with them. Fortunately, I guess, their web developers are so incompetent that the application process keeps getting messed up. E.g., he applies to a social studies job but gets taken to the application page for exam proctors. 🤦♀I guess that's a blessing in disguise if Pearson is a Bastion of Woke!
👏👏👏
Thank you for doing this
Bravo! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🇺🇸❤️
yessss!!!!!! Thank you!
Godspeed young man! You are truly fighting the good fight!
Yes! Finally! Thank you.
You're awesome.
Thanks for the tips, i want to position myself where i can also push back against this insanity in future, important to know your strategy as it seems to be a success.
He is using Marxist strategies against them.
Excellent
Amazing. I'd tell you to keep going, but I know you will.
Carry on, 2023! Thank you.
First rate class on civics...worth the tuition!!
I support you.
May you be successful in this.
👏👏🔥
Yes! To policy. There is no such thing as a neutral institution anymore. Either captured by CRT/DIE or not.
Bingo.
@@christopherrufo ...to use a Catholic term.
Please correct me if I’m wrong but are you basically taking the blueprint from the Left; ideology, narrative building and political activism and applying conservative ideology to the method. Kind of like your well known tweet explaining the plan to bring CRT into the forefront of social consciousness? Personally I hate the idea that Conservatives would have to move by the same methods as the Left/Progressives… But you are on the front lines and you see how strong the deception is and and how Conservatives are loosing the culture war and the soul of our nation. And Conservatives must be active politically and socially in order to regain influence in society amidst this unprecedented moral decline. You are brilliant. Stay spiritually grounded and intellectually honest. Your leadership and body of work is certain to reach far beyond your life time.
Go mate. All the best. We don`t want that shit in Australia either.
It's there already. Sorry dude.
@@MarkMackenzievortism Not hurting this old 60 yr old prick yet mate so i just laugh at the wankers😁
I'm hearing graduate programs require ideological, racialized, political loyalty statement/ signatures as a requirement to graduate
I like how Chris' focus over the last few months has grown away from "CRT", to more towards "DEI". DEI is the big-picture, CRT is only a part of the problem. Chris is becoming the anti-DEI leader in America, along with DeSantis.
Gotta hand it to the left, it was a brilliant long term plan while it lasted. But if anything, they did us a favor - they pushed too far, too hard. This DEI stuff was probably going on for 50 years yet when I was in school in the 80s and 90s, I think CRT was there in a form but it was far more subtle, it was the undercurrent of the curriculum but was not universal and not explicitly expressed. As we saw with the Virginia school boards, they crossed a line and now everyone knows about it. In the other side's extremism, they have conceded that they are going to hate you and smear you no matter what you do, so you may as well crush them with no fear, no mercy, and no quarter given. We have to take the belief that if Conservatives go hard-line on issues like DEI, CRT, transgenderism, that they WILL be rewarded. DeSantis and Glen Youngkin, winning the governor's race in a blue state, is proof of that. Learn from the abortion issue. On the surface it looks like it hurt Republicans in 2022 but when you look at governors who took hard-line stances on abortion they were overwhelmingly re-elected.
Thank the lord for young, articulate, conservatives like Christopher Rufo, and Ron DeSantis!
I love what they are doing to my home state! I can't wait to move back!
DeSantis is the man.
@@christopherrufo Voted for him before I left florida 4 years ago. I absolutely love what you guys are doing down there! Keep up the good work!
Debate? When, and where do you see both sides debate? They don’t…
“Expanding the playing field is what it’s all about”. Funny how when describing the solution, Rufo comes full circle and champions the Left’s policy
If you want to get rid of dei you have to get rid of the people behind it. And firing the leadership of these institutions is critical as you’ve done. So it actually becomes an HR issue in the short term, not primarily a philosophical or narrative issue. Don’t debate. Act.
Agreed.
God bless Desantis and take him to become the USA president next election.
Congressman Jamaal Bowman D-NY is campaigning on white supremacy message
NY is full of delusional nut jobs. He'll win in a landslide.
Educating our communities to the Progressive Satanist threat is our obligation as we cannot allow their special brand of hate to enter.
I'm 100% on this team, but policy written by a right wing think tank to fix this is a non starter for everybody but someone who's already right wing or truly understands this. Sadly that number is very low.
He's fighting back with moderate/classically liberal principles. Trying to bring back balance. That's why I, a liberal, am 100% excited about all this.
It's true-- the real true prejudice that Americans must face is the bigotry towards conservatives. The masses have been brainwashed to hate both common sense and those who employ it. And don't even get me started on their disdain for virtue!
I don't understand why you're making this so complicated. DEI is illegal, period. There are laws in the books that make racial discrimination a crime. So, no, defunding and "allowing DEI to wither on the vine" is not the solution. Arrest the racist bastards and throw them in jail. They broke the law, they must pay. Period. Why is it so difficult to enforce the law?
Why was CASEL 5 written into HB7? Woke Marxist indoctrination was written into the so-called STOP WOKE act. Why is nobody talking about this?
@@69waltersg Well I don't know wat CASEL 5 is, and I haven't heard of HB7 or the STOP WOKE act. Feel free to elaborate. Thank you.
