Gettysburg College has rescheduled a painting and writing event for people who are “tired of White cis men” hosted by its Gender Sexuality and Resource Center.

The event was planned as part of a peace and justice, or “P&J,” senior project at the private Pennsylvania college, but it was cancelled after it was shared online.

Here’s all you about the painting event and why it was postponed:

The peace and justice event, which was originally planned for Saturday, Nov. 12, invited people to “come paint and write about” how they are tired of straight, white men.

The event’s pieces would then be displayed in the school’s dining hall for all to see.

According to one anonymous Gettysburg alumnus, he was “pretty upset” by the event and that “as a White, cis male, the fact that basically people are being allowed to discriminate based on sexuality and race is not something that was ever taught to me in the Gettysburg that was taught to me,” as per NY Post.

“Even as a conservative, the one thing Gettysburg used to always strive for was diversity, equity and inclusion but in an actual good way that you could have conservatives, you could have liberals, you could have actual conversations. You could have that academic back and forth as a liberal arts college,” he added.

According to the alumni, the reason the event was postponed was because “they felt they were going to get away with it” until “it got shared on an Instagram thing with 2 million people,” he told Fox News Digital.

He said that he thinks the event sends a “bad” message to Gettysburg alumni and possible donors: “And a bunch of folks saw that, and they went, ‘What the heck?'”

He stated that the main goal of education should be to prepare the future generation and ensure that we have a society that continues to function and think critically. “I hope that they use this as a learning experience and push back on some of this wokeness that you’ve seen,” he said.

A current senior at Gettysburg College who spoke on the condition of anonymity due to fear of repercussions told Fox News Digital that they were “not surprised at all that a poster like this is spreading throughout the college, given that there was a public drag show in the middle of campus three or four weeks prior to this.”

“Typically, the rhetoric on these posters is more inclusive and welcoming to the target student groups.” “However, this rhetoric is simply divisive,” said the student. “The faculty on campus always preaches unity among students on campus but never does anything to put this unity into action.”

“The school should not allow this type of rhetoric because it openly and boldly contradicts what the college says they want from their student body,” the senior went on to say.

According to the student, this “incidence, like many others that have occurred at Gettysburg College, makes me feel as if the school is incompetent,” and that the “school no longer allows students to speak freely, they only allow ideas and concerns of students to be heard that fit their ideas that the school would like to promote.”

“The school has an inaccurate understanding of how students truly feel about the college,” the student stated. “Most are angry and discouraged that the school is improving not only as a result of this event, but also as a result of many other events that have occurred before this.”

This is not the first incident of its kind to occur on an American college campus. In 2019, Yale student Isis Davis-Marks published an op-ed in which she pledged to monitor and collect dirt on White men on campus in order to undermine them in future confirmation hearings.
