Black students found to be behind ‘white power’ drawing at state university

Just before Thanksgiving, the president called a meeting with minority student leaders to discuss race relations on campus. It’s a meeting that ended abruptly, with students reading a letter asking for more time, and walking out.

“As students of color, WE DO NOT point fingers nor cast blame for the lack of awareness and understanding in regards to the black experience here at Salisbury University, keeping in mind that racism and cultural segregation existed long before any of us stepped foot on campus,” the letter read.

“However, we refuse to deny that the current environment on campus takes a huge toll on the psyche of students of color affected by the subconscious oppression.”

Race has certainly taken a turn for the better under our first Black president.

I will add, that of all the racist things racists could have said, one of the most egregious to many would have been that a Black president would ruin the place.

While I would not have agreed with that on general terms, in this instance they would have been irrefutably right.

Technically, white is the presence of all colors.

Depends upon the context. In the spectrum of light, white is the presence of all color. In the color palette, white is the absence of all color.

““However, we refuse to deny that the current environment on campus takes a huge toll on the psyche of students of color affected by the subconscious oppression.””

Oh for crying out loud!

This is just insanity. Pure insanity.

It doesn’t matter if it really happened. What matters is that it “could have” happened.

Therefore, this is a “teachable moment”

and

Sensitivity training is needed by all white faculty and students.

It is the fault of white privilege that this black student had to write “White Power” on the wall.

(did I forget anything?)

The issue here is that the many of the Black students are affirmative action admits who are not prepared for college and who are not academically qualified.

Most of them are not paying for their educations

They cannot compete on a level playing field with their fellow students

So of course they are stressed and blame racism

They also tend yo gravitate towards politicized areas of study such as black studies where they can get good grades for minimal work simply by agreeing with the professors left wing grievance world view

The fact that there is reference to a “Black Experience” on campus shows an absolute unwillingness to become a member of the mainstream American society and is, therefore, an act of racist segregation on the part of those claiming that so-called “experience”.

You want to be treated the same as everyone else? Stop pointing out how different you are! Racism won’t/can’t end as long as people are categorized by their race(s).

They must be made to pay the same penalty that a Whitey would have paid. No exoneration due to skin shade. This is a hate crime and they must go to jail. No exceptions.

It is almost 100% false flags.

The faux racism industry would lose its funding of the Left didn’t make up stories about white racism.

It is the second most ironic lie going next to pretending that there is climate change “science”.

That’s unexpected. Who would have guessed that a widely-reported “racist” incident would be a hoax? Again!

The attack on the psyche of white students is unquestionable. The students of color have been supported by the establishment at every turn for the last 40+ years, especially in colleges!

Anyone who doesn’t see that clear fact is an ignorant boob or a Leftist.

But I repeat myself...

You cannot make the case that there is any insult there or any threat at all that is recognized outside the heads of those “offended.” It is not a noose or a burning cross.

White is all colors. Black is absence of color. Albinos are totally colored. Black people have no color.

Convenient excuse for bad grades.
