The website says the program was inspired both by the 2017 Unite the Right rally, part of which took place on the UVA campus, and the nationwideDemonstrators vandalize a car as they protest the death of George Floyd, Sunday, May 31, 2020, near the White House in Washington.

The money has been used to fund multiple first-year advising courses, and hire about 30 postdoctoral fellows and three faculty members"whose research addresses racial justice and the redress of inequities; and cultivate relationships with local communities who historically have been marginalized from the university.", producing academic research based on the ideology, and advancing the ideology in the broader community.
