Students at the University of California, Berkeley held a day of protest on Friday to demand the creation of additional “safe spaces” for transgender and nonwhite students, during which a human chain was formed on a main campus artery to prevent white students from getting to class.
The demonstrators were caught on video blocking Berkeley’s Sather Gate, holding large banners advocating the creation of physical spaces segregated by race and gender identity, including one that read “Fight 4 Spaces of Color.”
Protesters can be heard shouting “Go around!” to white students who attempt to go through the blockade, while students of color are greeted with calls of “Let him through!”
Students turned away by the mob are later shown filing through trees and ducking under branches in order to cross Strawberry Creek, which runs underneath the bridge.
Protesting students went on to march through the Berkeley Student Union, chanting and disrupting students who are studying.
One student, who was not a part of the protest, tells the videomaker that the demonstrators are “being quite childish.”
“I agree with the right to protest, but disrupting the peace of others is not OK,” he says.
The group later occupies the school store, chanting “Students Over Profits!” They place an “eviction notice” on the store, which claims the university “wrongly allocated this two-story facility to third-party corporations, keeping in line with its intensifying legacy of prioritizing financial profit over student needs.”
Demonstrators finally made their way to an intersection in front of campus, where students blocked traffic and chanted, “Whose university? Our university!”

If whites did this to blacks, they would be expelled immediately.
Applying DIFFERENT treatments to people based on skin color is de facto racism.
Isn’t Berkeley mostly asian? The whites are an oppressed minority there.
The Stand in the Schoolhouse Door took place at Foster Auditorium at the University of Alabama on June 11, 1963. George Wallace, the Democratic Governor of Alabama, in a symbolic attempt to keep his inaugural promise of "segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever" and stop the desegregation of schools, stood at the door of the auditorium to try to block the entry of two black students, Vivian Malone and James Hood.
I agree with complete freedom of association - and any white student who is blocked from the indoctrination sewer, even if for a few hours, has been done a favor.

The white students should file a class action lawsuit against the university for the refund of their tuition.
Also file a federal lawsuit for racial discrimination and violation of civil rights.
Stick it back up their communist asses.
Agree. They should be charged and expelled.
Students paid for a class (a product), and these same students are being denied access to the product for which that paid.
These idiots will “graduate” with a crap degree and $125,000+ student loan debt.
I always think about this, when the tyros on college campuses start suggesting that ‘white’ people should be discriminated against.
What would they do, if all the ‘white’ people just ‘went Galt’, in terms of doing their jobs conscientiously?
Do they ever wonder who would keep running all of the systems that they depend upon?
Turning the concepts of multiculturalism, tolerance and inclusion on their heads. Start yelling “Bigot” and “Blancophobe” at them and see what happens.
yup. great book to consider.

We are on a parallel course to South Africa it seems, they are just a decade or so ahead in the progression. Giving one race, creed or sex special privileges under national law creates worse problems than the “free market” solution— free association.
Well, at first I was upset about this, but upon further thought, these straight, white kids owe the protesters a big thank you: They were spared at least one day of being propagandized by their vile leftist ‘perfessers’.
