Columbia Student Complains About Professor Saying 'Negro' During Lesson About 1960’s
Washington Free Beacon ^ | April 6, 2018 | Alex Griswold

A Columbia University student publicly complained about her professor using the word "Negro," even though he said it in a lesson about 1960s America.

The Columbia Daily Spector ran a story Thursday about what happens "when professors make racially insensitive remarks." The paper cited a complaint by student Maria Fernanda Martinez of a perceived "microagression." Martinez said her professor told the class it was appropriate to use the term "Negro" when discussing the 1960's, a time when that was the politically correct term for African-Americans.

I want to go back to when I could be friends with everyone, and have people from all races over to my home, and serve tacos without being accused of cultural appropriations. Back when we could pass the guitar, and sing any song and just love each other no matter what.

The correct term, which is used by the national organization, is COLORED PEOPLE.

How about Blacks or even African-Americans? And frak the NAACP, nothing more than a racist bigoted organization.

At my culinary school, a freshman complained that a type of sieve was called a china cap or chinois (it’s pointed like a...dare I say it? A coolie hat). These snowflakes are so dumb.

George Orwell Quote:

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture repainted, every statue and street building renamed, every date altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has been stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”

I object to colleges routinely portraying White Men as villains by default.

The term “snowflake” is truly appropriate for today’s youth. Whether it be a firearm, knife, insult, verbage, vernacular, opinion, clothing, costume or a stern facial expression, the mere sight of it puts them into canniption fits. Seems as though everything and anything causes them to melt from fear or indignation. What a bunch of pussies.

This nation is truly lost.

Lord have mercy upon us all.

Someone recently got in hot water for using “colored people”. The last I heard it is “People of Color”.

It is strange to see all the “thought crime” being set up by the left.

I still don’t understand the term “Hate Crime”, since all violent crime is usually based on hatred.

We use the woI believe the word “crime” is French for sin.

So we are saying people are guilty of sin, and yet the “new think” believes there is no such thing as sin.
