A project that examines a “Racial Justice Impact Assessment tool” for local health departments to become “anti-racist” received money from the University of Michigan’s Office of the Vice President for Research.
The grant money came from a $450,000 pot of funds, which was distributed to six other “systemic racism” research proposals, according to the university.
Director of Public Affairs Kim Broekhuizen did not address College Fix questions about the grants and how they would fight racism, as well as questions about the other “diversity, equity, and inclusion” initiatives on campus. She deferred to the original university announcement.
None of the three researchers on the health departments project responded to two requests for comment sent in the past month.
