There will not be a Kentucky Derby party at Dartmouth College this year because some students allege that one of the nations most prestigious horse races is racist.
And fair warning before reading further you might want to make a batch of Mint Juleps. Youre going to need it.
Back in 2015, a group of Black Lives Matter protestors targeted an exclusive Kentucky Derby party hosted by the ladies of Kappa Delta Epsilon calling the event overtly racist and recreating an Antebellum South atmosphere on the Ivy League campus.
The protestors accused the party of being a bastion of racism, exclusion and oppression. They chanted, What is Derby? Its the face of genocide and What is Derby? Its the face of police brutality.
I searched The New York Times archives and could find no evidence of police brutality at the Derby nor could I find any evidence of ethnic cleansings.
I can only imagine the angst and soul searching among the fragile Ivy League snowflakes as they contemplated the grave offense they had caused to the perpetually-offended, hashtag protesters.

Discrimination against white horses?
As the white population contracts/dwindles, the spaces they evacuate are being filled with imported “replacement Americans” (Hispanics & Asians). Despite the dense population of NJ, this phenomenon has created an environment with far fewer racial incidents than one might expect. NJ was one of the states where more than 25% of the population is foreigners.
I read the article. He's right. G*dd*mn. I need a drink.
Combined PING! and DANG!
Uh, the Kentucky Derby didn’t start until 1875. Apparently they don’t teach US History, or Latin, at Dartmouth.
Hehehehehehehe...”Printress Margaret”!
I’ve worked with blacks who view race as playing a role in everything around them; it is downright pitiful. Any hiring or promotion of a non-black is viewed as an example of racism (even if there were 0 black applicants/candidates); any attempt to enforce company policies (even when applied across all races) are viewed as racist in origin.
You realize this can’t be fixed, and they are basically “attrited out” and replaced with Hispanics (who are viewed as griping less and working more).
"He said the sheriff is near."
I would more say that’s what they pretend to believe, as that principle consistently gives them the whip hand, so to speak, over weak-minded whites.
Heh, the first time I had a mint julep, I nearly choked on it!
I don’t know why, but I had this impression it was going to be a “refreshing” and “light” drink, maybe a little sweet. Watching them make it, it looked like they were going to serve a nice, cool iced tea, with the mint and all.
Then when I took a big gulp, it was like battery acid to me.
LOL, halfway through writing this post, it occurred to me that I had no idea how a mint julep is actually made. The one I got, they threw ice in a glass, on top of that tossed in three mint leaves after crushing them slightly, dumped a tiny spoon of sugar on top, then filled the glass to the top with bourbon.
Except I never saw them add the bourbon. I probably had turned to say to someone “Hey, these look like they are going to be just the thing on a hot day!” or something like that as they filled them up.
Thank you, and I’d like to add that when at least three famous, so I’m told, people of whom I already know-Sarah Bernhard the “comedian”, this black crappper girl, and some male “comedian” can make suggestions that Sarah Palin be gang-raped by black males-and every one of these evil people made the same suggestion, some years apart, it seems to be some fetish with them-then I have less than no concern with their opinions of what’s rayciss.
I agree.
And these women should never have allowed anyone to intimidate them into forsaking their culture.
You’re suggesting Asians & Hispanics have fewer inter-racial issues? I can see that to a certain extent, unless you start taking into account the La Raza types.
Every I read about some violent happening in Jersey, one of Holder’s peeps is involved.
Human Resources management personnel across the USA should be directed to ignore any applicants from the idiotic schools that promote this BS. As employees, they are just trouble.
Did someone complain about the Lawn Jockey?
There is an interesting story behind those. People who helped the Underground Railroad put those out to signal a safe space. Depending upon how they were painted travelers knew they had food, shelter, and guidance to the next safe place.
Whites are becoming a joke.
Interesting. I didn't know that.
Well, just in case some miss you reference.....
My Old Kentucky Home Lyrics
The sun shines bright in the old Kentucky home,
‘Tis summer, the darkies are gay,
The corn top’s ripe and the meadows in the bloom,
While the birds make music all the day.
The young folks roll on the little cabin floor,
All merry, all happy and bright:
By’n by Hard Times comes a knocking at the door,
Then my old Kentucky Home, good night!
CHORUS
Weep no more, my lady,
Oh! weep no more to-day!
We will sing one song for the old Kentucky Home,
For the old Kentucky Home far away.
All of which raises the question. Are the BLM types actually LBGT types in blackface or are they actually darkies
-—Theyre doing it because they can-—
I would argue it is because they are attempting to be known for compliance with the supreme edict “Thou shalt make a difference”
