The corporate diversity training does nothing more than reinforce sectarianism among the working class by denying the class nature of proletarian exploitation
Corporate diversity training in a public school?
Corporate ideas often permeate public institutions, yes.
Wish I could anti-recommend this garbage. Even if you're right in a more general sense, you're assuming everything is a nail because all you have is a hammer.
None of this has anything to do with corporatization. It's a power struggle at a public institution in an overwhelmingly left-leaning area where people are using ideas that started in and are largely developed in academia to as weapons to fulfill their basic human instincts for preserving status. Trying to connect this to corporate HR practices is pseudobabble.
Do big tent politics while never talking about class and the inevitable result is five different factions with grievances who all hate each other. This applies to office politics as much as electoral politics. It is a movement that offers no real solution to the pressing economic, social, or ecological issues of today, and fundamentally challenges nothing. Is it any wonder, then, why it's becoming so well-funded and mainstream?
Besides, having a degree and working for dysfunctional public-sector bodies is what the foot-soldiers of the highly-educated liberal bourgeoisie do. So its permeation with corporate culture is once again hardly surprising.
