Well, we'll see how the school's president handles this and then we'll all be the judge of that.

“We have three main pillars we want to see accomplished,” student member Emilio Bernal told The Battalion. “We want this mandatory class, more minority students and faculty on campus, and for there to be penalties for racist behavior on campus.”

Hmmm.... and here I thought they were there for a good education. Silly me.

Works for me. As long as it is mandatory for all students....white AND black. For it is with the latter group you will find the most vile racists around.

Racism will be defined as anything they disagree with, achieving
the left’s ultimate goal of criminalizing the political opposition.

No. This kind of crap doesn’t rise to the level of a college requirement. It will only serve the interests of racial hucksters like Obama, Jackson and others of that ilk and generate hostility where it doesn’t exist. The racism in this country emanates from the idiots who are pushing this agenda.

Where students will be taught the muslim “race”, which ironically comes in the diverse colours of white, black, olive, yellow, red and any mixture thereof.

A group of student activists

What are their names?

The reason I ask is because I don't believe they exist.

Thought police. I deplore racism, but alas, it is fundamental right to hold and express racist ideas.
