A UCLA professor was called racist, and guilty of a “micro-aggression” against black students for correcting grammar and spelling issues on their papers. A protest was organized and students claim the professor has created a hostile climate on campus for his actions.
Downtrend reports:
I thought the race debate reached a new low when Gummy Bear maker Haribo was accused of racism for making African mask Gummies, but what happened at UCLA this week makes that look sane. 25 University of California Los Angeles students participated in a sit-in protest because, get this, one of their professors had the gall to correct grammar and spelling issues on some black students’ papers.

That’s it. Time to separate the country into two countries. Red and Blue. (Not the BS media designations.) Red — for libtard commies and blue for conservatives and patriots.
Red staters won’t have much to eat but they’ll have all the whine they want.
And blacks should not be charged with crimes -

Wish there were a way to do this. The alternative is that the whole thing goes down the toilet.
Affirmative Action for admission. Affirmative Action for grading. What next, an Affirmative Action President? Oh, wait...
They tried that once before. It was called the Civil War and it was the bloodiest war Americans ever fought. I don’t think we want to go down that road again.
Spelling and grammar issues in college should be corrected, I went to college and professors had no problem correcting papers and pointing out grammar issues. It is a function of the instructor to make corrections and to help guide the student to perfection.
Please please please post the papers of these UCLA college students. I could use a good micro-laugh.
there are several ways, but the best is purge.
That is all of Neoeuropa from New York north and east be purged from the union.
That would be a start
Yeah. Exactly what I was going for.
Seriously? You can’t be that stupid?
If these black students don’t wish to learn anything, why in blazes are they going to college in the first place? I think I know the answer, but the question bears asking nevertheless.
The alternative is to roll over and be enslaved by a brutal idiocracy.
a nation is dead when the language dies.
What was the class, English?
That is so funny! Had this bunch of over hyped, over preferred morons actually had the foreknowledge of what 'epistemological' or 'methodological' actually meant, there wouldn't have been a need for the acts of so-called aggression.
You just can't make this stuff up, folks. They had no idea! They had to go get somebody with some brains to concoct that statement.
Just put this down to the likes of "we conversated" and so on.
By the time a student gets to college, there should be no spelling and grammar issues. Especially today when every word processor has spell-check and grammar-check.
No excuse. Spelling and grammar issues today are signs of either laziness or indifference, qualities which will guarantee unemployment.
This story is over a year old.
Wheeze be don’t needen koreckshuns four gramar.
We bee knew skool.
If they don’t want grammar and spelling corrected why are they in school?.
Sounds like another free ride issue.
Did they aks him to change their grades?
