Democrats have always been big proponents of segregation. Democrats instituted the Jim Crow laws and filibustered the Civil Rights Act. George Wallace was a Democrat when he said “I say segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever.”

After LBJ, Democrats discovered that the best way to keep blacks on the Democrat plantation was to enact social welfare policies that would destroy black families and keep them forever dependent on welfare.

Segregation is still very important to Democrats, however, because you cannot racially gerrymand Democrat voting districts if the black voters are not segregated.

When I taught there, there were not enough blacks to make a class. In fact, I do not remember having a black student.

Southern Illinois University has a white professor teaching black lit. I think he headed the deptartment at one time:

A real piece of work who tried to screw me royal.
Anna Jackson is a lecturer there. One of her high school students in my class told me Martin Luther King was president and freed the slaves. I never had a student of hers that was literate yet SIU pawned her off as some great mind.

"When Will blacks see that democrats think they are morons?"

My guess? when the handouts stop. But they never will.

The real morons are the voters, who elect the democrats to begin with.

I'm guessing it's ‘separate’ but ‘equal’, right? LOL - Democrats staying true to form... When will they ever learn... when will they ever learn...Where have all the flowers gone?

“But Jessica Crotty, Moraine’s assistant director of communications, made the case for segregation, saying the school periodically reserves certain course offerings for various demographics of students, including veterans. Sometimes we set aside sections for specific populations...”

Jot this down for when your kids ask you what’s the difference between “an excuse” and “an explanation.” All she did here was give the definition of segregation.

For some reason, I don’t really care if the class is “black only.”

Neither do I, but it is worthy to point out the hypocrisy of those who slam things that they perceive as not being diverse, which really means “too many white males”.

You're right. For some reason, it's all right for non-whites to be with their own kind, but if a white person, especially a male, does, he is labeled a racist.

You, I, and my parents, and my parents’ parents didn’t care, but somebody cared enough a few decades ago to shoot George Wallace over it.

They cared enough to strike down Plessy v. Ferguson in favor of Brown vs. Board of Education.

They cared enough to destroy a new political party.

They cared enough to bus entire neighborhoods to different schools in Boston, thereby negating the movement of families trying to get away from rising crime rates and degradation of schools.

I agree. Perhaps the university should set it up so blacks have ALL their own classes, no whites allowed! You know, separate but equal... Idiot dems would love it...

Forgive my naivete, but if I were a young, black student seeing this at the registration table, I might be tempted to ask why you are segregating us from the rest of the population.

As I write the above, I realize that that is so far out of touch with the intellectual conditioning young blacks are receiving today. Please ignore the above speculation.

State and court-ordered segregation will soon be back, just reversed.

If they were to do this for white college courses it would be called racist and a success.
