Air Force Academy Instructional Materials Include Presentations on Critical Race Theory, White Privilege, and Black Lives Matter – Attacks American ‘Creation Myth' of the Declaration of Independence
(Washington, D.C.) Judicial Watch announced today that it received 478 pages of records from the United States Air Force Academy (USAFA), a component of the United States Department of Defense, which includes instructional materials and emails that address topics such as Critical Race Theory, "white privilege," and Black Lives Matter.

Judicial Watch obtained these records as the result of a November 2022 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit filed after the Defense Department failed to respond to a request for Air Force Academy training material records on Critical Race Theory (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of Defense (No. 1:22-cv-03510)).

The records include a PowerPoint presentation titled "Political Psychology, Lessons 32-33: Prejudice and Racism." On a slide labeled "Race and Partisanship" is a bullet stating: "Opposition to interracial dating correlated with white partisanship after Obama’s election despite being unrelated to party identification in previous decades."

The presentation includes a set of tables with the headline "White Americans’ Support for Democratic Candidates for President as a Function of Old-Fashioned Racism." Another slide depicts tables which purport to show "Correlations between Republican Party Identification and Old-Fashioned Racism among White Americans."

A slide titled "Racialization of Public Policy" includes a bullet stating "They [pollsters] found that the image of a black man greatly impacted responses among Trump supporters." The next bullet asserts:

After exposed to the black racial cue, Trump voters:

Were less supportive of housing assistance programs

Expressed higher levels of anger that some people receive government assistance

Were more likely to say that individuals who receive assistance are to blame for their economic situation.

Another slide purports to show a chart depicting "White Identity among White Americans," with the subtitle "How Important Is Being White to Your Identity?"

#3 Worse than I thought! The rot is deep, and mid-career I suspect the weeding out of conservatives is already underway.

#6 That's how you create camaraderie and a band of brothers in today's military -- by teaching all to envy, resent and hate your fellow classmates.
