Oberlin seems like a swell place. They tried to screw that bakery, and now this.

The entire leadership of that misbegotten joke of a college should be in prison along with all of the “professors”.

Pretty simple way a leftist determines whether a stolen item should be returned.

Was it from a “white” person?

What. in. the. F. are they spending their money on????????????????????? They sure fought to not pay a deserved settlement and are now refusing to hand over artwork stolen from people who were incinerated????? I am SURE if it were an artifact from slavery, Oberlin College would RIOT, BURN AND DESTROY EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING to get it back. Of course, you can’t expect liberals to act human, civilized and in non savage ways.

“The college experienced financial difficulties in its early years. Shipherd went on several fundraising tours out East, while trustees John Keep and William Dawes journeyed to Britain to generate financial support. Keep and Dawes lectured about Oberlin in private homes, meeting houses, and church halls, raising funds primarily from the abolitionist community. After 18 months, they returned with $30,000 in gold, the equivalent of 640 million dollars in today’s terms.

Those donations saved Oberlin.”

“Stolen” suggests civil law is being enforced at the time. Wars are the lack of civil law.

If you don’t want war, which is killing people and breaking things, then ya gotta do the things that don’t make war or do the things needed to stop a war.

What’s next, people going to sue for the bombings of their cities in WWII? “The USA bombed my house, and I want compensation!”

Highly recommend Berry College in NW Georgia. It has the largest campus in the world (27,000 beautiful ac) and every student iirc has a “job”. Our granddaughter’s is on the “ropes course” - I think she “hooks up” students so they don’t fall and break their necks: https://www.berry.edu/

Oberlin is one of the most liberal, leftists, schools in the country. It’s interesting to see the courses they offer (e.g., Social Justice in Dance, Earth Science and Social Justice, Doin’ Time: A History of Black Incarceration). These are all courses that fulfill part of the graduation requirements.

“In a statement, Oberlin said it was cooperating with investigators and was “confident that Oberlin College legally acquired Egon Schiele’s Girl with Black Hair in 1958, and that we lawfully possess it.”

There are thousands of people every single day selling stolen goods that say the exact same thing.

Of your grandpa brought home that drawing from the war and they knew it was there and you refused? An FBI swat team would attack your house at 6am.

There are three reasons for the double standard:

1. Jews don’t riot (in America, anyway).

2. Leftists hate Jews. There is a deep antisemitism, justified in quiet talk, in academia.

3. The Jews in question are white.

I believe antisemitism is demonically inspired.
