Northwestern to Quadruple Safe Spaces for Black Students After Complaints
Breitbart ^ | October 18, 2016 | Tom Ciccotta

According to a task force report out of Northwestern University, administrators are planning to quadruple the number of safe spaces for black students. The proposal for additional environments for black students came after a 149-page-report on the “Black Student Experience” at Northwestern. The report concluded that black students feel “dissatisfied, exhausted and alienated on campus.” As a result, the report provided 14 recommendations on how the experience for black students could be approved at Northwestern.

They are manufacturing racist robots.
Future fanatics, the Islamics have their eyes on such as these for recruitment.
Vote for Trump, lets keep these recruiters out.

Will they demand "safe spaces" at work?

What is this "work" you speak of?

How about “Grow the F up.”

During my college years, I often felt "dissatisfied and exhausted". Alienated? When thrown together with a bunch of people from different background, outlooks, wants, desires, and experiences? Maybe once or twice. /s

But I "powered through"...

I’m a white guy and I find communism and other stupidity as well as stupid people to be a macroagression against my person. Can I get a safe space?

Quadruple? The white/Asian/Hisanic/Native American/etc. students should whine that they aren’t getting more safe spaces. Just turn the entire university into a big expensive day care.

Have they considered putting any permanent sites on another continent in order to make them really safe?

Re “I thought separate was inherently unequal”.

Read George Orwell’s “Animal Farm” where “All animals are created equal but some animals (i.e. pigs) are more equal”

“I’m George Orwell and you’re in my world”.

There is no escape, no cookies, no nothing. “Big Brother” now rules (read his “1984”).

“Abandon hope all ye who enter”.

I say run with it. They want segregation, lets go all the way. Then maybe we can get some peace and forward movement.

“I say run with it. They want segregation, lets go all the way.”


I agree. I am weary of the entire thing.

Now it’s the black folks saying, “Segregation Today, Segregation Tomorrow, Segregation Forever.”

How will the poor dears survive in the real world?

They'll get government jobs which better qualified whites were denied.

Half of this is only because the various diversity bureaucrats on campus need something to do and a reason for requesting more funding.

But these things have the reverse effect than they’re supposed to, I think. The white kids think, “I don’t need this kind of coddling and they don’t think I need it, so I must be superior”.

Not to worry, kids. The democrats are arranging it so that the entire nation is a ‘safe space’ where no dissenting opinion is allowed.

And the Russians and Chinese, the North Koreans and the Iranians, are taking note of our political weakness and imminent self-destruction....

I hear that the “safe space” is going to be on the other side of the city, in the Englewood and Austin neighborhoods.
