jericho Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Thoughts? Good or bad. Didn't Blacks fight for years for Civil rights to not be segregated? It also mentions cheaper housing for blacks? Is that going to mean cheaper housing for all races now? If not is that biased and unlawful? Isn't college supposed to be where all can get the experience of culture?

Jumper_Dad Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I would guess this wouldn't be received as well if a state school in the old south decide to build housing for the same group. It would be looked at as segregation, but since it's California it's looked at as those students are getting privileged treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDeuce Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Not a good look. Either for the school, or the students who asked for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jericho Posted September 7, 2016 Author Share Posted September 7, 2016 [it] would provide a cheaper alternative housing solution for Black students I just dont or cant agree that its fair for one group to allow it to be cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HHSHOG62 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Were the last 70 years and billions if not trillions of dollars for naught? If we revert back to the same policies that those 70 years and billions of dollars were used to fight against, then I think an argument could be made that they were for naught.

HHSHOG62 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Were the last 70 years and billions if not trillions of dollars for naught? And also, what do you mean by naught? There have quite clearly been improvements in race relations, equality and civil rights during the past 70 years. If by naught, you mean nothing was accomplished, then no the past 70 years and billions were not for "naught." However, I did say "regression," and by that I mean we have gone back to the policies of before, where state sponsored segregation was permissible, and what those 70 years and billions of dollars were used to fight against.

jericho Posted September 7, 2016 Author Share Posted September 7, 2016 Does this open up a new precedent that now other races can demand and get separate housing. And cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capt278 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 All those years fighting against segregation, now some (not white either), want to return to it? Geez, this country is screwed in the head now days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcjkbt Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 One difference between what is being proposed and the segregation of the mid-1950's is that back then the whites were calling the shots and now the blacks are. Back then it was supposed to be a benefit to the whites; now it is supposed to be a benefit to the blacks..................................I suppose.

It's the same thing, segregation, no matter how you try to slice it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
