At Smith College, the racist incident that wasn’t
BOSTON GLOBE ^ | 8/6/2018 | Jeff Jacoby

OUMOU KANOUTE is a black student at Smith College with a summer job on campus. This is what happened as she ate lunch in a mostly empty dining hall one day last week:

A college employee saw her “laying on the couch” alone, mistook her for an unfamiliar male who “seem[ed] to be out of place,” and phoned the campus police. An unarmed officer was sent to check things out. He spoke politely to Kanoute, saw nothing was amiss, and left her in peace.

Here’s what didn’t happen:

In whose interests is it to promote victimization and hatred between the races??

The only explanation I can think of is to keep Blacks hating whites (who voted for Trump!), and use that anger to drive them to the polls...

Smith is the quintessential left-wing, east-coast, expensive, emotive “liberal arts” elitist puppy-mills.

I’m surprised they aren’t pleased to have attracted and raised an angry, aggrieved, female of color, who will stand up to all imagined racist and sexist devils.

Well done Smith!

I think this is straight out of the communist playbook - which the Democrats have openly become - foment hatred on both sides of a divide and then use that wedge to create mayhem and violence. Then they step into the violence to create a greater sense of chaos and lawlessness. This can bring down any system of self-rule and cause the population to cry out for a “strong-man” dictator to stop the violence.

This is the Democratic Socialist (communist) game.

Outrageous. I hope an armed mob burns Smith College to the ground in retaliation.

Naw, I don't think they did anything wrong. I just don't like Smith College.

Who to blame? The BLM agenda and the media, for turning every event possible into a “racist” event, with an unspoken “please don’t examine any context that could indicate differently”.

I love it when liberal pets turn around and blister their masters. I bet the Smith administration got no sleep that night wondering how they could possibly have been so racist and unfeeling.

Smith College is a B level safety school for kids either not connected or smart enough to get into an Ivy. Full of depressed, navel gazing snowflakes.
