Gonzaga warns against partying by 'non-Mexican individuals'
Campus reform ^ | 8:47 AM EDT 5/4/2018 | Ben McDonald

Posted on 05/04/2018 2:07:55 PM PDT by jmcenanly

In an email to the student body, a Gonzaga University administrator cautioned that Cinco de Mayo has become "full of cultural appropriation," directing them to a flyer listing "alternative" ways of celebrating the holiday. "Don't you dare put on that 'sombrero,'" the flyer tells students, suggesting that they "donate to organizations working for immigrant rights" rather than have a party. Another option is to "support AUTHENTIC Mexican businesses" run by "actual Mexican people," though it cautions that "CHIPOTLE DOESN’T COUNT."

Judi shouldn’t be making such demands unless she can prove that she is a direct descendant of fascists.

I’d wear a sombrero, a fake mustache, and a Frito Bandito t shirt to class just to piss them off.

“VP of Student Development Judi Biggs Garbuio is WARNING everyone that they must obey her demand.“

I’d tell her to go **** herself right to her face.

” “Don’t you dare put on that ‘sombrero,’””

Or else what? Surely a University must have heard of the 1st amendment. The only response to this is GFY and put on a sombrero.

90 percent of Mexicans haven't go a clue as to what Cinco de Quatro is all about, I would ask all my Hispanic employees and every single one would answer that it was a day to get drunk.

Why is that cultural appropriation is almost always something only Whites are accused of? When was the last time a Mexican was chastised for wearing European style clothing or celebrating North American and intrinsically White holidays? When was the last time an Asian wearing a European style dress to a prom was chastised for cultural appropriation? No Thanksgiving Day for Hispanics, Asians, Jews and Muslims ! No St. Patricks Day for Hispanics, Asians, Jews and Muslims. What else should be excluded from Non White Europeans as Cultural Appropriation?

Or should common sense just drive a stake through the heart of this race pandering bullshit?

Garbuio is an Italian name. Maybe Judi is related to Benito Mussolini.
Otherwise she’s misappropriating fascist culture.

Multiculturalism:

Group B gets to keep all of their own stuff.

Group A, however, has to share all of their stuff with Group B.

It plays out that way in entertainment just like it does with holidays, student groups, professional organizations, and awards.

“Group A” stations and channels become Everybody Channels.

“Group B” gets to have its own stations and channels.

It is sociocultural genocide of Group A.

“what do they do on st. Patrick’s day? ban green clothing?”

Not to mention the entire month of October. They had better not allow anyone who isn’t of German descent to celebrate October Fest.

And no German Beer, sausages, or anything else I can think of to be offended by someone’s non-German use of them.

Dirndl dresses and skirts and embroidered vests are verboten! And don’t get me started on pigtails, pigs’ knucles, saurkraut and sauerfleisch wie bei Muttern. No butterkase or tilsit either!

This is fun! We can all play.

If I was still running a fraternity’s social program in today’s atmosphere on a campus, I would have a “Self-declared Mexican Day” party and tell the administration we have a civil right to be recognized as who we feel we are.

Use their own liberal dogma against them.

So if you celebrate a holiday invented by a beer company as a promotional that no one in Mexico celebrates you are guilty of cultural appropriation? Alrighty then.

Basketball was invented by a White man, cultural appropriation by Blacks, take a hike Afros, Asians and Hispanics!

Baseball was invented by a White man, cultural appropriation by Blacks, Hispanics/Latinos/Mexicans and Asians. Adios Muchachos!

American Football, not soccer, invented by a White man, oh so sorry, cultural appropriation by Blacks! Take a hike uber melatonins!

But let a someone other than a Mexican celebrate Cinco de Quatro or wear Mexican style clothing and Oh MY God the sky is falling. If these people are so offended they should go back to their shitholes where they never have to interact whith other cultures, they obviously are not mature enough races to interct with the rest of the world.
