U. of Virginia responds after video shows black woman saying 'too many white people' in building

The University of Virginia has specified that its new diversity-focused centers are open to everyone after a now-viral video showed a black woman complaining about “too many white people” being in the Multicultural Student Center.

The video purportedly shows a black woman delivering a “public service announcement” to the white people occupying the space.

“Public Service Announcement! Excuse me,” the woman says in the video, commanding the room’s attention. “If ya’ll didn’t know, this is the MSC and frankly there are just too many white people in here and this is a space for people of color.”

“So just be really cognizant of the space that you’re taking up because it does make some of us POCs uncomfortable when we see too many white people in here,” she says in the video. “It’s only been open for four days and frankly there is a whole university for a lot of ya’ll to be at and there’s very few spaces for us. So keep that in mind. Thank you.”

The woman’s speech ended with applause from some people in the room.(snip)

The university responded in a statement Wednesday saying the four new and expanded student centers in Newcomb Hall, which include an expanded LGBTQ center and new Latinx center, are inclusive and open to all students.

“In order to foster the diversity of experience and ideas that make UVA a great and good place to study and work, these centers are open to all members of the University community,” the statement said.

Put up a sign outside the doors that says “Colored people only”.

How does someone that stupid and ridiculous end up getting admitted to a university? Does UVA have no standards at all?

UVA should be embarrassed that this racist skank is one of their students.

The white students were simply demonstrating their wokeness. There were so many woke whites that they displaced the persons of color that they needed to be seen among. Self defeating.

“That fat pig could feed an African village for a month or so.”

Exactly what I thought.

So UVa is saying that they aren't going to dig through the boxes in the basement to find their old Colored Only signs.

And with the term Latinx: It is a cultural imperialist action to force Spanish with el latino and la latina to use a Germanic das Latinx.

No, if the student centers were truly inclusive and open to all students they wouldn't have an LGBT center and a Latinx center, they'd just have student centers.

Little Miss Announcer obviously does not comprehend the meaning and implications of “multicultural”.

If this cracker were still a student, I don't think I'd wanna patronize that place anyway. Black racists or no.

To be honest I’m all for separation.

This dysfunctional marriage of blacks and whites ain’t working. It’s way past time for a divorce.

Well played, sir. It's just that...well, a Browning is cultural appropriation, you know.

Is it any wonder college tuitions have soared?!

So true, but they will never allow a “divorce.” What they want is their own spaces, but also to be allowed into all White spaces. “What’s ours is ours, and what’s yours is ours.”

“Fear of being called a name.”

Embrace the insult... and hit them back twice as hard.

And follow my tag line.
