The Kellogg Company, famous for its breakfast cereals,
is giving far-left activists hundreds of millions of dollars to promote left-wing causes and projects,
including “white privilege” and “structural racism.”
The company’s project to promote “coming to grips with racism” was touted at its “American Healing Conference.” The conference promised to “move the conversation from hope to possibility.”
The foundation’s America Healing Conferences were held annually over that five-year period. The most recent conference was in 2015 and featured the theme “All Children Must Thrive.”
The foundation sent the New York-based Calhoun School a $250,000 donation for a “three-part youth-based project on issues of white privilege and institutionalized racism.”
The foundation has also opposed voter ID laws by funding opposition to such organizations as the Texas-based TrueTheVote.org. The WKKF put millions into funding the Applied Research Center (ARC), a New York-based “racial justice think tank that uses media, research and activism to promote solutions.” The ARC, now known as RaceForward, accused supporters of voter ID laws of being proponents of Jim Crow-styled racism.
“ARC produced a steady stream of vicious propaganda aimed at conservative and Tea Party groups like True the Vote through its www.ColorLines.com website,” the Capital Research Center reported in 2013.
Most recently, one of the company’s board members even tried to damage the candidacy of GOP presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson when Kellogg board member Donald Knauss tried to connect Carson to the left-wing causes the board of Costco often engaged in when both Knauss and Carson served together there.
WKKF has funded a long list of liberal ideas, causes, and programs, including
a virtual Who’s Who of leftwing organizations and causes:
