Hey ‘white people’: you have a ‘way of life problem,’ and Mizzou Faculty (shortened)
American Thinker ^ | 2 May, 2016 | Thomas Lifson

Does the University of Missouri have a death wish? In the wake of capitulating to race grievance demonstrators, Mizzou is already experiencing a decline in applications so severe that it is closing four dorms and a drop in donations that is causing a financial crisis. Although the faculty no longer includes Melissa “I need some muscle” Click, apparently race-obsessed leftists still occupy positions of power.

The university’s Faculty Council Committee on Race Relations is digging an even deeper hole for the school. Carly Hoilman of TheBlaze reports:

The University of Missouri’s Faculty Council Committee on Race Relations released a video series this week that aims to educate students and faculty about racism on campus, Mizzou’s student newspaper, the Maneater, reported.

Committee member Craig Roberts, a Mizzou plant sciences professor, said that the target audience of these videos will be white faculty, the lessons will be applicable for the while community as a whole.

The committee apparently is aiming not at overt expressions of racism, but rather:

Mak[ing] Mizzou a “safe and welcoming place for everyone” by developing “tools and strategies to assist the faculty” in understanding and and working to correct “misunderstandings about race and ethnicity.”

The committee has released five videos. In the first video, Roberts regretfully notes that around 1,500 of Mizzou’s two thousand full-time faculty members are white. He calls racism “a way of life problem” for the school’s community.

Check out one of the videos for yourself:

Who would pay to be subjected to that?

I never did well in diversity workshops when I was in the corporate world.

Once I got the “trainer” to concede that the fundamental assumption was that Whites are racists, things went downhill pretty fast.

“I need some muscle over here”.That’s just idiotic.
White people say,”Get some guns up here.”
I think that it’s going to come to that and shortly.

My cousin is a senior there and graduates in the next couple of weeks. Her sorority lost 8 girls who's parents didnt let them come back in the fall and - she herself cannot wait to get out of there as the change and vibe there is now one of mistrust.

According to her - there were no racial problems in the school until this astro turf mission by outsiders poisoned the campus.

My way of life has kept me out of jail, off welfare, and out of an inner city hellhole. I guess that’s a problem?

End federal student loans and much of this will dry up.

Start taxing the large endowments of universities like Harvard, Yale and Duke.

My daughter was accepted to a grad school program there with a nice scholarship. They offered another $5000 a year as the acceptance deadline approached. She will be attending another program with a slightly higher cost to my great relief.

This is what causes white flight. Whites are sick and tired of discussing race and being blamed for everything. So, they’ll shrug their shoulders and bounce. And then blacks and liberal whites can have all the safe spaces they want.

0bama is trying to export the inner city hell holes to a neighborhood near you.

Here’s the “problem”:

A majority of us “white” people — and many non-white people — are actually sufficiently successful that we can absorb the cost of supporting you non-functional people. For now.

But it’s getting close to the point where we are sick and tired of doing so. Actually, it’s past that point. It’s getting to the point where we are just going to STOP.

Oh, BTW, we are VERY GOOD at throwing down if you jerkwads want to go there. I personally have done so four times now.

So quit b####ing and get on board with creating rather than leaching. Or be prepared to reap your just deserts.

White people riot with moving vans.

It doesn’t sound like a welcoming place for Whitey

I am so sick of this.

Many Asians come to this country with little or no English and they excel.

They don’t care if they are welcomed or not-—they just study.

Since the problem is “unseen”, how can you tell if its ever been solved? Of course, that’s the point.

They need to fire everyone and start over from scratch.

Your statement echoes exactly why I'm departing the Army. There is over 50 percent of Americans I don't want to fight for anymore. ,,,

You all wanna kill ISIS ? The recruiting office and free college are down by the mall.
