A black member of the University of Oklahoma fraternity plunged into scandal after film emerged of them has hit out at his so-called 'brothers'. William Bruce James II, who is one of just two black men ever to join the university's Sigma Alpha Epsilon chapter, pledged in 2001 - but has now turned his back on the organization. The footage showed SAE members, riding a bus while wearing bow ties and dress shirts, chanting 'There will never be a n***** SAE' to the tune of If You're Happy And You Know It.

I am sure he has never listened to Nelly (Ride with me)
Kill whitey.
You know, golf?
Like he’s never heard the snappy tune “Cop Killer”
Im surprised college educated kids use that word these days,,,
Their parents should be shamed in public...
The n word is reserved for the exclusive use by black people. Non-black people are not permitted to use the n word in any context. Non-blacks who violate this rule will be labeled racist and fired from their jobs or expelled from school or punished in a manner prescribed by blacks. Blacks are expected to continue using sticks and stones to break non-black bones after non-black words hurt them.
So you just know he approves of RAP lyrics. As a fraternity alumnus he has an interest in the conduct of current members. When that conduct reflects very badly on the fraternity I would expect him to express extreme displeasure. Since he is a black man I understand very well why the chant of N— would be especially abhorrent. Sometimes issues are about race.
I am curious, just how do you know he said those words?
I don’t have proof. But my experience tells me it is a sure bet.
I was driving yesterday and had some white wannabee in his car, windows down,radio cranked playing rap...... f-word,n-word,b-word... just repeated over and over... i see /hear this all the time....
who fault is this?...
the fool that think its cool or the fools that making banks selling you its cool?
Funny when we’re discussing this topic, we’re so damned politically correct (not referring to any person) and have to write “nig**r”. It’s almost childish, as we’re saying the same fuck*** thing! Or we can just say the “N” word, like we’ve never said the word before. Granted it’s rude, but when the story is about a word and we can’t quote the word, we’re as whacky as the left.
Good points.
“like we’ve never said the word before”
Being from the South, I’ve used that word pretty much every day of my adult life. Not proud of it OR embarrassed by it, just a fact. I also have always believed you don’t necessarily have to be black to be one. For me It’s about behavior, conduct and character (or lack there of).
Really, my experience tells me that not everyone locksteps into our expectations.
I don’t think I have ever said “rocked me to the core of my being” on anything. And there have been a plethora of occasions where one might claim.
I am still thinking it is just racial bias on the part of his race and his allegiance to it. It’s my opinion - everybody has one.
Bingo!
Perhaps the Brothers were just keeping’ it real.
From the article: “William Bruce James II, who is one of just two black men ever to join the university’s Sigma Alpha Epsilon chapter, pledged in 2001 - but has now turned his back on the organization.”
That’s proof positive that SAE has a non-discrimination policy. It’s a shame that William has turned his back on his fraternity. It’s a bond that is a lasting connection of brotherhood that would have served him well through life not only in social terms but professionally as well. My guess is that he’s been pressured by other blacks who know of his SAE membership to ‘come out’ in this unfortunate way.
Our current President has done more to cause this racial division among us than anything else. It’s nauseating.
Oh I agree we all have a right to our opinion. I just hesitate to assign bad motives to a person I don’t know. The behavior of the frat boys was boorish and I understand how what they said may have a visceral impact on others like the gentleman which I don’t share.
Well, you have something in common with “urban” youths, then, if you used that word nearly every day of your life.
Like I said, I also believe you don’t necessarily have to be black to be one. For me It’s about behavior, conduct and character (or lack of those traits).
