DailyKenn.com — The far-left once purported to champion equality, inclusion, and an end to race-based discrimination. But once the far-left gains a firm control on the reins of power, the opposite often occurs.

Madison, Wisconsin is an example. A new report suggests the state's capitol city's authorities may be steeped in racial discrimination, particularly when it comes to the police oversight board.
Excerpted from thefederalist.com ▼
In Madison, Wisconsin, the famously leftist city government recently established a Police Civilian Oversight Board in response to activists concerned with police relations. The board’s mission is rather vague: “provide input,” “engage in community outreach,” and “make policy-level recommendations.” What the board is not vague about is who is allowed to participate.
Six of the board’s 11 members must be black. No Asians, American Indian, Hispanics or Latinos, or Whites can sit in those six seats: “Blacks Only,” to use the terminology of the City’s Alder Workgroup, which explicitly mandated “50 percent Black members.”
Furthermore, one board seat is reserved for an Asian; one board seat is reserved for an American Indian; one board seat is reserved for someone identifying as “Latinx.” Finally, one board seat is reserved for a “member of the LGBTQ community,” although the city presumably would allow someone to be both a minority and LGBTQ at the same time.
