Does the University of Missouri have a death wish? In the wake of capitulating to race grievance demonstrators, Mizzou is already experiencing a decline in applications so severe that it is closing four dorms and a drop in donations that is causing a financial crisis. Although the faculty no longer includes Melissa I need some muscle Click, apparently race-obsessed leftists still occupy positions of power.
The universitys Faculty Council Committee on Race Relations is digging an even deeper hole for the school. Carly Hoilman of TheBlaze reports:
The University of Missouris Faculty Council Committee on Race Relations released a video series this week that aims to educate students and faculty about racism on campus, Mizzous student newspaper, the Maneater, reported.
Committee member Craig Roberts, a Mizzou plant sciences professor, said that the target audience of these videos will be white faculty, the lessons will be applicable for the while community as a whole.
The committee apparently is aiming not at overt expressions of racism, but rather:
Mak[ing] Mizzou a safe and welcoming place for everyone by developing tools and strategies to assist the faculty in understanding and and working to correct misunderstandings about race and ethnicity.
The committee has released five videos. In the first video, Roberts regretfully notes that around 1,500 of Mizzous two thousand full-time faculty members are white. He calls racism a way of life problem for the schools community.
Check out one of the videos for yourself:

I see a WHOLE BUNCH of federal money coming their way in the near future
“As Mrs. L,TOWM just asked (with a borderline evil grin) what does unseen racism look like, exactly? Bwahahahahaha”
If you flip through the current sociology or Racism in America textbooks, it’s anything and everything under the sun that makes any African American even mildly uncomfortable.
“It’s not just Mizzou, it’s all American universities. The concept of white privilege is designed to treat whites much as Jews were treated in the 3ed Reich. “
Exactly.
Ask yourself: Once you accept the idea of “white priviledge”, what logically comes next?
And there is the elephant in the room.
Details on those throw downs?
As I like to say, when I encounter someone throwing around the term “white privilege”, I think “white competence.”
The only African man I know is a top executive with a drug company, and he earned it.
2 entire dorms CLOSED
How about they house some homeless veterans in those dorms?
This is it, this is the way - vote with your pocketbooks, parents - no Mizzou ever (that tree is rotten at the roots), and no other schools that kowtow ...
It's normally hard to fire a tenured professor, unless the university can claim financial necessity. The decline in enrollment could be used as a way to reduce faculty numbers--but targeting white professors to improve the ratio.
Maybe they can stop the decline in student numbers by aggressively recruiting out-of-state minority students (with in-state tuition, or free tuition).
You can either be a victim or an equal. You can’t be both. If you choose to continue portraying yourself as a victim to keep the gravy train flowing, you make being my equal an impossibility.
I’ve told the stories here bunches of times, so I’ll give a short version:
Three attempted muggings. I carry - and have trained in the use of - a very nice knife. When I just pulled my blade, they backed off.
A fourth one didn’t get off that easy. Blindsided me and knocked me to the ground. I got up and inverted his elbow. He stopped then.
That 25% of the U of Missouri-Columbia faculty that is not white is of course mainly Asian, the U of Missouri faculty i s16.67% Asian.
My M21 clone just loves those things.IMR4895 or RL15,cut the center out of the bull all day long.
Nice, this is the only way they (hopefully) will learn, best of luck!
They must be related diseases of the mind, eh?
