Reminds me of the USSR where they had political officers stationed everywhere to report on anyone not being a good communist.
UK college will pay students to monitor racist language and 'microaggressions' on campus
Twenty 'race equality champions' will work between two and nine hours weekly for the University of Sheffield
The University of Sheffield in the United Kingdom announced that it's hiring students to monitor and stand up to "microaggressions" on campus as well as language deemed racist, BBC News reported.
What are the details?
Due to demand from the student body, 20 "race equality champions" will work two to nine hours weekly for a little over $12 per hour (U.S.) to challenge wrongdoings — and will be trained to "lead healthy conversations" about preventing racism on campus and how "to help their peers understand racism and its impact," the outlet said.
The school said microaggressions are defined as "subtle but offensive comments" that might be unintentional but can upset minority groups, BBC News reported.
Examples of microaggressions, the outlet said, include phrases like:
"Stop making everything a race issue."
"Why are you searching for things to be offended about?"
"Where are you really from?"
"I don't want to hear about your holiday to South Africa. It's nowhere near where I'm from."
"Being compared to black celebrities that I look nothing like."
