The Maneater ^ | April 25, 2016 | Alyssa Bessasparis

The Faculty Council Committee on Race Relations will soon release a series of video podcasts addressing what they have learned about diversity and racism.

Since last May, the committee of 12 faculty members, staff and students has met weekly for two hours to identify, discuss and develop solutions to racial issues on campus. Graduate student Jonathan Butler, who went on a hunger strike last fall demanding then-UM System President Tim Wolfe’s resignation, and interim President Mike Middleton are both committee members. Last fall, the committee released a series of videos laying out their goals and discussing their progress.

Why would any sane white person voluntarily a Cultural Marxist re-education camp and have to pay to do it.

How about a committee to address why black people lately have such trouble knowing their proper place?

That’s about how appropriate this nonsense is.

Why would any sane white person . . .

Well, now, he wouldn't, would he?

The key word in your question is sane, not white. No sane person - white or any other color - would do this.

which tells us a lot about those folks on that committee, doesn't it?

The stupidity at Mizzou hasn’t gone away. They’ve just changed the location

If he didn't die - we used to call that a diet...

To elaborate on the theme, ever since I was a teen back in the sixties the liberal media has been obsessed with meme of "white racism" causing all black problems. By 1970 even then the Klan was losing power and a shadow of its former self as blacks were busy burning down their homes and killing white people (see the Zebra killers)...something like what's happening now.

Since today they can find very few instances of overt white racism, they have make it up. See "micro-aggressions."That's why we keep seeing all the racial hoaxes in the news the last one recently exposed at a black college out east. And no matter how many of them are exposed, the media and liberal academics steadfastly keep to the theme of evil, nasty, racist whites causing all the problems of black people.

One hundred years from if nothing changes, blacks will still blame whites for all their problems...with the help of the media...which will probably still be quite liberal.

There was an article posted here last week that Mizzou had 25% less freshmen enroll and had to close two dorms. They’re facing a 32 million budget shortfall and donations to the athletic department were down 80%.

I wish they’d be kicked out of the SEC.

They need a Post Trump purge of the nuts and flakes. Trump is re-attaching balls to the American white male.

Governor Jay Nixon has served two 4 year terms. During that time he has appointed people to serve on the board that oversees MU.

Things have not gone well during this time.

Which SEC school isn't a liberal dot in a conservative state? This could have happened at any state university.
The good news is how public the price Mizzou is having to pay is. Its great fun for professors to rip on how evil white people and their “privilege” are, but the reality of them not sending their kids or money to the university is a banquet of consequences they weren't expecting.

They are ALWAYS VICTIMS

The MSM NEVER calls out anyone else for “racism” And I’ve been watching for any sign of that for decades. To those hypocrites, only Caucasians have the genetic defect, everyone else is just live and let live.

Of course, everyone else knows better. The MSM are cowards, they brought this on with their sickening racial pandering and now we see the results

(The Faculty Council Committee on Race Relations will soon release a series of video podcasts addressing what they have learned about diversity and racism.)

The video podcast should have nothing on it as they obviously have learned nothing about real diversity and racism.

Let Mizzou operate without white, middle class students and bill payers. Just another nail in the coffin of a formerly great university. Send this school back to the Big 12, they are an embarrassment to the SEC.

This UGA fan says they are an embarrassment to the SEC and need to get back to the Big 12 or anywhere else.

Am I the only one who suspects that these SJWs spend all their time organizing, protesting, and making demands because they’re not actually qualified to do the course work, and they know it? And raising a ruckus and hollering ‘racism’ is their way of hiding it, while daring the college administrators to give them the failing grades they so richly deserve?

Every one of these fools should be rounded up and subjected to a battery of tests—the SATs all the way down to third grade arithmetic and English composition and grammar—and then dealt with according to their grades.
Flunk ‘em out.
