Washington Post Op-Ed Demands Name Change at George Washington University
Breitbart ^ | 11 May 2022 | John Nolte

Posted on 05/12/2022 4:21:29 PM PDT by Rummyfan

The Washington Post — a newspaper named Washington — published an editorial calling for a name change at George Washington University.

You can’t make this sh*t up.

The op-ed, written by a senior currently attending George Washington University, is 800 or so words of the usual-usual, shockingly ignorant moral preening we’ve come to expect from the Woke McCarthyites. So let me sum it up: This university is racist, and George Washington was racist, and while I didn’t find this offensive enough to pass up attending school here, harrumph, harrumph, harrumph, half-truth, half-truth, half-truth, I’m so virtuous, I’m so virtuous, I’m so virtuous…

This crybaby loon also wants Winston Churchill blacklisted from the campus:

The controversial Winston Churchill Library must go. The university’s contentious colonial moniker must go. Even the university’s name, mascot and motto — “Hail Thee George Washington”— must be replaced. The hypocrisy of GW in not addressing these issues is an example of how Black voices and Black grievances go ignored and highlights the importance of strong Black leadership.

Are they going to change the name of the Washington Post as well?

If these folks really hate the USA so much there’s always Afghanistan or Ukraine...where they can still enjoy all our free money but without the racism.

“Every day, hundreds of Black students walk on a campus named after an enslaver of men and study at a site named after dark parts of history.”

Suddenly I realize that when everybody that mattered agreed to abolish Confederate monuments - because “they fought to have slaves” - that was just a set-up to abolish Washington and Jefferson.

And to abolish western civilization entirely.

I never saw it coming.

If you want to operate in Africa the best languages to learn are English, French, Arabic, and Portuguese.

Great point.

The tribal languages that Africans speak among their kinsmen and families are insular and not understood with as much geographical reach as the language of whatever colonial power occupied their region, such as English, French, Portuguese, etc.

In most parts it's advantageous also to learn Swahili, since everyone knows it. It was the language invented jointly by the Arab slave traders and their tribal suppliers and customers.

All the real Africans I know speak English - and for some it was their first language even when they lived at home in Africa. They all have a native language as well, many of which I’ve never heard of! Maybe the college can start teaching Twi or Krio.

And they are perfectly free to go to any other institution in the country.
