University of Michigan students demand a non-whites-only space

Didn't this start as safe places for special snowflakes? And now safe places are where racist's gather? Not racist you say, replace colors and re-read headline.


Not sure how that actually evolved........







University of Michigan students demand a non-whites-only space for 'social justice' work and the removal of 'symbols of white supremacy' on campus

Students4Justice wants a segregated space to organize social justice efforts

This request is on the organization's list of demands it sent to school officials

They've coordinated campus protests to pressure administrators to cave

And circulated an online petition addressed to the university's president

I wonder what the headlines would be if the white students started an online petition in support of putting all the minorities in one spot.

So, it is not considered racist if people of color want a "non-white" only space? What happened to unity, and all of us be treated as equal crap they complain about, isn't that the opposite? I don't get it, if we wanted a "white-only" space, we would be slammed and called all kinds of names. What next, a "non-white" water fountain, or a space at the back of the bus? Our college campus students are just whacked these days. Grow up already

That excludes white lgbtqxyz's. There's no way that a university that counts itself amongst the "equality" and "inclusion" institutions would let that happen.

How can they celebrate diversity with an attitude like that?

Lmao the irony...

Anyone remember when college kids and blacks fought for de-segregation??? What was that called.... ummm oh yeah THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT.

It's ok let them keep doubling down on bs like this, it will make the pendulum swing further and drawing people away from the left/dems.

I lived through busing and I do not recall anyone of any color being happy with it, we all seemed to like our neighborhoods as they were. The only people who were happy were the social engineers and politicians........now they wan't want to reverse the engineering.

"The organization's demands follows a nationwide trend of university groups calling for racially segregated spaces on their campuses, most notably California State University Los Angeles.

School officials honored requests by the university's Black Student Union to provide separate dorm housing for black students.


Proponents of self-segregation - when members of a racial or ethnic group isolate themselves from the greater community - argue that these spaces help ease racial tensions.

However, a study conducted by Harvard social psychologist Jim Sidanius found that membership in ethnic student organizations has a tendency to increase perceptions of group victimization and conflict toward other groups. "


Spot on. Expectation is invitation.

Perceived grievance is how Sue and John and Oswald and Hans turn to jihadists after being a part of such group.

Now I see why libs and jihadists make such good bedfellows.

But it isn't "when members of a racial or ethnic group isolate themselves from the greater community," it is one group, consistently the same, which makes these demands.
