One of the most progressive and socially liberal schools in the country is cultivating controversy as it faces accusations of racism after it allegedly banned white residents from accessing a community farm on Saturdays.

Gill Tract Community Farm in nearby Albany has designated Saturdays exclusively for use by 'Black, Indigenous, and People of Color' (BIPOC) after a complaint was filed with the US Department of Education by the Mountain States Legal Foundation.

The move has been denounced by some as an example of 'systemic racism.'

We have become completely unmoored from the dream that Dr. King and many others fought and sometimes died for.

Those people would weep bitter tears if they could see the blatant racism of too many in the black community.

So these brilliant academic scholars really think the solution to past discrimination is MORE discrimination?

Where the hell does that kind of thinking get us? It gets us into a worse place.

Not that I'd ever hang out with those betas but if I was kicked out of there, they better post a night guard.

No. A solution to population control is race encapsulation and segregation.

Any *whites excluded* is unquestionably racist to the core.

When I see the “urban gardens” that pop up in abandoned city lots, where local blacks allegedly grow things for the neighborhood, I believe this is the ultimate surrender to the Dem ideal all the way back to the antebellum South - that blacks are apparently only suited for agricultural work, and educating them is still illegal (when you see the teacher union abuses today, by which “graduates” are semi-literate).

A black women with a hoe in a garden on government property in 2024, reliant on public assistance, has not assimilated at all. This isn’t progress; it is 40 acres with no mule - 160 years later.

Hmph. Look how elevated they have become.
There are “Black, Indigenous, Persons of Color”,
and whites.

Makes sense, since the left’s ultimate goal is the elimination of Whitey, after taking all his money.

Wait! The farm is co-owned by the school but only on Saturdays? How’s that work?

Who are the idiots who write such headlines?
