BLM protest at Dartmouth goes off the rail

Featured Replies

How could they be expelled if they weren't caught?

 

Exactly. That's a part of the reason for the hunger strike and football team boycott. Nobody cared to try and catch the perpetrators. Hell, the president didn't even care. He just resigned. Didn't even try to fight to save his job. Your whole post about double standard is just more crying wolf. There is proof out there that white people can get away with racist acts in Mizzou because they weren't caught. Nevermind that no one cared to look for them. When blacks act just as bad as the racist whites like these BLM people have then they should be expelled and punished. And I don't disagree that something should happen to them. Suspending, expelling them, I am all for it. Just don't give me the double standard stuff when there are white people who get away with racism as well.

I don't think most would equate "racist" with the "n-word" especially those of a certain age. Maybe the younger generation does.

 

Regardless, it is basic racism and it should therefore be treated as such.

You can't say "regardless" if what I said is true in regards to how people view the two words.

Does it matter if what they said equates to the n-word? If we are maintaining that racism as bad, and that we are trying to prevent it, shouldn't all cases of racism be treated the same?

 

I'm failing to see how "f-your white tears" F-you, you filthy white f-'s" isn't blatant racism.

The "white tears" doesn't do anything for me.

 

The "filthy whites" is certainly fair game for punishment.

As I stated when the Mizzou stuff went down, I am not comfortable with the forced resignation. If the president has failed to foster an atmosphere that is welcoming then it was fair. Not being there I can't say it was fair or not.

 

So who is the equivalent bad guy in this Dartmouth case?

 

Do you think the white students in the library felt welcome?

“filthy white b****!” in her face. Students who were seated were told to, “Stand the f*** up!” “You filthy racist white piece of s***!”

 

Doesn't sound to welcoming does it?

A student thinks that whites are "better" than blacks i.e. racist. No chance in hell you can expel him for that. It's never happened.

 

Name a time when a kid has been expelled for saying whites are better than blacks.

 

Was the fraternity leader who sang the racist songs at OU earlier in the year expelled?

It's not the president's fault for how students act. He/she is judged on how they respond That's WHY the Mizzou president was forced to resign according to critics.

Again, not the Prez' responsibility on how kids act.

So in the likely event that nothing comes of this, will the President resign? If not, will there be protests advocating for his removal?

Wouldn't bother me any. I'd love to see white students protesting about racism and a leader's failure to act. As long as those protestors can withstand the background checks that will take place and when we all find out they come from wealth and have never truly encountered racism make sure their cause is laughed at like it was in Mizzou.

It's like people keep forgetting this fact.

I think that is correct. Seemed like he was expelled and the fraternity got in a lot of trouble as well.

Fair question. As I always school each school gets to do their own thing and I'd never say one school should so something b/c another school did. Silly.
