Black Professor Barely Reprimanded for Horribly Racist Tweets
Last Resistance ^ | May 13, 2015 | Michael Minkoff

Do you want actual racial equality? Do you desire actual racial harmony? I have news for you: you’re in the minority. It seems even the most ardent champions fighting against racism are often avowed racists. Case in point: Dr. Saida Grundy, a black professor set to start teaching at Boston University on July 1.

She decided it was a good idea to get on Twitter and pontificate in a most scholarly fashion concerning the obstacles that need to be destroyed in order to achieve racial equality. Unfortunately, one of those obstacles is apparently the entire white male population. Below are some calm, well-reasoned tweets, absolutely none of which were written in ALL CAPS!!!!!!! or without any punctuation at all, and all of which avoid hasty and/or sweeping generalizations. Because that wouldn’t be fitting for a college professor. /sarcasm

The clincher:

All Dr. Grundy got was an indirect and rather sedate admonition in an open letter from Boston University president Robert Brown:

I understand there is a broader context to Dr. Grundy’s tweets and that, as a scholar, she has the right to pursue her research, formulate her views, and challenge the rest of us to think differently about race relations. But we also must recognize that words have power and the words in her Twitter feed were powerful in the way they stereotyped and condemned other people.

I remember Atticus Finch saying we would regret our sins in future generations. Was he accurate?!!!!!

Of course. No hate crime there. Hate crime laws were created to criminalize anything a White says or does, or doesn’t say or doesn’t do, and to set free non-Whites who physically assault Whites.

This racist woman will be promoted for this. She has her whole life’s career settled. She receives a mushy worded letter with a wink and a nod admonition BUT she has just demonstrated she is a loyal general in the debasement of American education.

so-called “academics” are among the most narrow-minded, ideological, fanatic (and stupid) people you will ever meet.

It seems a paradox, but the times have given it proof.

I guess the ability to make such flagrantly violent racist statements is just considered another form of “reparations.”

I’ve had enough.

They are storing up wrath for the revolution, which will call for no quarter.

She actually believes that no matter what she says and does, it can’t be considered racist because she is black. /disgust

How many white male students will take a course from a professor who tweets: “why is white america so reluctant to identify white college males as a problem population?”

Well, they do consume too many brewskies relative to their share of the population. But what else?

White males are currently underrepresented in universities now.

Would she be ABLE to give a fair grade to an underrepresented minority in her classes?

If not, she does not belong in any position of authority. ANY position of authority.

She would be an obstacle to the future of any white male in her vital classes in their hopes of obtaining a degree in Engineering...no, Physics...no, Mathematics...no, perhaps advanced getting fired from burger flipping jobs for spouting nonsense.

She has had fun with her politics but really does not understand what she offers is literally NO help to her successful students, except the few like her, that get a job teaching it.

She is a large part of the problem she believes she is solving.

Kind of a recursive loop. Only useful, when the output leads to useful places.

We used to deal with these folks in a conclusive manner.

One day what was old will be new again.

Can't have "professors" tweeting such ignorant, racist crap as this. Can't be tolerated.

Impossible. Only whites are racists.

This black freak of a professor is proof that affirmative action gives you often insane results.

If blacks don’t have to accept collective sin for the crimes their own fellow blacks in the here-and-now commit, then I as a white person will not accept collective sin for the sins of a much smaller cohort of people who have been long dead, who were the app 1.5% of Americans who were slave holders. Plus, we already fought a war and shed blood to free them (unprecedented, to my knowledge, in history), and that was all the “reparations” they should ever have gotten. Blacks are murdering each other, and whites, at numbers disproportionate to their percentage of population, but let anyone bring up those statistics, and it’s “stereotyping”, even though you might say it’s the minority of blacks making the majority look bad.
