The first amendment is under siege! If racist speech and intimidation isn't protected at school then we have lost a part of our Democracy. amirite? :grin:
A lot of the left is concerned about it too. I think it's a minority of students, but it's a particularly loud and obnoxious minority
hahaha what ignorance from you. This has nothing to do with slavery but rather an English-style system of residential colleges, headed by a "master" who is typically a professor and his family. Rice University has the same residential college system.
I'm curious to know what these groups are trying to accomplish. Why exactly do they want the heads of the universities to roll when they are not responsible for the actions of individuals among thousands?
lol nice try, but irrelevant point. Educate yourself on the residential college system. It's actually a nice system because it creates a level playing field for all students -- there's no greek hierarchy like many universities have.
apparently all of this started because someone allegedly made a poop swastika on a dorm bathroom wall (no evidence of course, and the left has a history of fabricating campus hate crimes) even if it was real, who gives a s**t? welcome to the real world, snowflakes
It appears that it may well have been a hoax. Shocker. Was The Poop Swastika Incident At Mizzou A Giant Hoax?
And some people in a pickup truck yelled the n word at students. And a girl was allegedly turned away from a frat party (allegedly because there were black people in the party and the girls were drunk) And some professors got health benefit cuts. And planned parenthood got defunded. Basically nothing really to do with "oppression" or black liberation
A lot of people, apparently. They decided to stand up and protest and the football team decided to go on strike. They used the resources and power they had, and as a result, they got leadership to listen. That's how the real world works - welcome to it, indeed. Interesting that people want shame and bully the protesters away from their own rights to free speech and assembly.
