He should do serious jail time for this.
Instead of working within the system and getting a sign put up which puts the window in context, he destroyed property b\c he didn’t want to see it.
There’s lots of things i don’t want to see yet am forced to.
So his right to destroy is sacrosanct because he’s in a protected class? SMH
I’m sure the KKK wants all portrayals of slavery to be eradicated.
Well done, punk. You are doing the freaking KKKs job for them!
How else would you portray slavery? Showing them lounging on a beach somewhere? What a moron.
Well with that thinking, The pyramids and sphinx should be demolished as they are the product of slave labor. What do you bet this SJW would cry at the prospect of destruction of those African monuments?
This man offends me, what do folks suggest I do to him?
progressives = violence
But this story really is not about a misled employee of Yale. It is about the sickness in education & the media, which has diverted so many from normal pursuits, into a hate filled war against others, based not upon anything those others have done to the haters; but rather on a fantasy narrative, which reflects no understanding of history.
While the traditional agricultural labor system in much of the earth was very very far from ideal; it was not always demeaning. Whether as seen in Biblical bondsmen, European or Asian serfs, or new world slaves or transported convicts; many achieved respected status. For an obvious example, Aesop of Aesop's Fables was a slave; for another, consider some of the heroic warriors in famous battles, who were serfs, brought to the fray by their feudal masters.
One can trash what one does not understand about history, but to what end. Is there any benefit to anyone by trashing John C. Calhoun at Yale? What possible benefit? Even JFK, who was certainly no Conservative, honored Calhoun as one of the five great Senators, in his book, Profiles In Courage.
Consider, finally, two great addresses, Booker T. Washington's 1895 Address in Atlanta to White Employers Booker T. Washington Address; and John C. Calhoun's Fort Hill Address, John C. Calhoun Address.
Just a bit of a different perspective. If no one at Yale today has the intellectual integrity to speak up for Calhoun; Yale is, itself, the greatest loser in this.
Now that we see it, it isn’t even clear that this was even slaves.
The left has already made him a martyr. He gets rehired and becomes another Rosa Parks.
The truth is offensive to him?
When they rehire him (and you know they will), assign him as janitor of the safe space room.
If the stained glass window was based on a photo, as it probably was, it could be one from 30 or 40 years after the war ended. There is no way to tell from the depiction whether the workers are slaves, freedmen, or blacks born after the abolition of slavery.
Monkey See, monkey do.
Depictions of negroes engaged in productive labor and contributing to the economy of the time-—racist.
Depictions of negroes with gold teeth, holding wads of cash while pointing a gun sideways and making weird hand gestures—that’s relevant black culture. Because -—it’s 2016.
Yeah, kid, Mao Tse-tung did the same thing, just a bit earlier.
They called it the Cultural Revolution.
Go for it, you effing Idiot.
Ignorant scumbag.
