OH My GOD...Did you say "Black". it's African American you racist!
Kirkwood..I think it's clear what the gentleman meant. We have an enormous amount of foriegn born kids in our universities today. For someone to suggest that the name Zhang, is a visa holding student, is at least a little reasonable.
Perhaps he's dead wrong, but the implication that he/she is an automatic racist is just as wrong. I am married to an Asian, and am father to an AMERICAN Asian/Causcasion. I think you maight be knee-jerking just a bit.
Some african and asian families has been American citizens generations longer than my family, but I don't hear anyone assuming I must be foreign-born ONLY because of the color of my skin or the shape of my eyes. You and I both know that nothing would have been said about being foreign born if the picture showed a white college student tearing down the displays. It is racist when you judge a person by their appearance and it is unacceptable to tolerate that crap here on FR.
