I thought it was worded very, very poorly, and there were parts that should have been elaborated on, but I agree with the overall message.

Quote : | "Raye Tyndall6:00 pm I'm sorry but I have to disagree with this article, not because I am African American but because I am an American. You talk about ignorance but it is your ignorant state of mind that is poisoning our community. It is easy for you to say "embrace the hate" because you don't have to face the trials that many others our forced to face; not just the "Black community" but minorities in general. I implore you to step outside this fairytale life that you live in and actually focus on the greater issue before you issue another statement to the "Black community". Have a wonderful day sir. " |
Quote : | "Genessa Jagdeo4:38 pm This statement starkly illustrates the arrogance of the privileged few. Those who do not have to experience the hate, humiliation and anger of a group that has sought to marginalize them (and their ancestors) can easily make these kinds of ignorant recommendations. And that is what it is. Ignorance. Few white people in America—particularly those who are young and uncultured—will have very little opportunity to experience the pain of racial marginalization. It’s not just about racial slurs on a tunnel wall, it’s about ALL of the means of disfranchisement that has been coupled with those racial slurs and still follow Black people today. Let’s also not forget that you’ve further illustrated your ignorance by excluding other marginalized groups. I’ve walked that tunnel and seen racial, ethnic, and religious slurs for people of Middle Eastern descent, Jews, Asians, etc. It’s time to stop targeting Black people as the only group that takes a stand against the arrogance of those who are privileged. People of other ethnic backgrounds are NOT voiceless, but people like you, Kitchen, continue to act as though they are. I think it’s time for people like Brent Kitchen to start putting their words into action. Leave the comfort of your own home and your own culture, Kitchen. Experience what it is REALLY like to be an outsider and THEN speak to me and other marginalized groups about what it’s REALLY like to be on the outside. I’m currently teaching ESL in South Korea, and I’ve met many white people who are experiencing racial segregation and marginlization for the first time. Many of them don’t know how to cope, and before they reached Korea, they may have foolishly made the same kind of comments that this young man made in this statement. Now, I doubt any of them could even THINK these kinds of silly things. Honestly, I feel sorry for people like Kitchen. His arrogance is embarrassing. It embarrasses me to have been a part of an institution of higher education that promotes and fosters this kind of rank ignorance.
A Disbelieving Alum." |
Remember people, always respond to hate with more hate. Don't listen to what those "privileged" people tell you.
\sarcasm
This guy, I hate to say it, doesn't represent views that either the black community or the student body as a whole have. Most people in those groups think that knee-jerk reactions and retaliation are the way to go, and they will continue to think that. In spite of the evidence.

If his point is that we should leave the image in there so we can all see that racism is a problem, then I can kinda follow him. However, there's a whole lot of other stuff that he's saying:
1. He conflates removing the image from the The Brick with censoring the tunnel itself. 2. He implies that it's only the black community who wants the image removed. 3. He advises targets of hateful speech to thank the people who write derogatory messages on the tunnel: "Thank them for exercising their freedom." 4. He implies that the photo may not be controversial by placing that word in quotes. 5. In an enormously cliche turn, he cites his accepting, diverse childhood to justify his position: It's cool...I grew up with black people! 6. He puts the burden on the targets of this attempted intimidation/humiliation to educate the buffoons who would write this garbage in the tunnel. 7. He kinda morphs from freedom of speech into this notion of "freedom to hate" and how that freedom to hate is more important than equality. He is definitely moving into to some funky territory: if his statement were true, there could still be towns all across America with legally mandated separate and disparate institutions. 8. In terms of this education he keeps calling for, he doesn't really describe it. I think having the picture removed is a great first step in educating people that the N-word ain't cool. He apparently thinks the people who have a problem with the picture should STFU and find some other time to educate people.
And, as far as I know, he is alone in a lot of these views. Does anybody think it's okay to drop an N-bomb in published University materials and hand them out to all our incoming freshmen? It's a disaster.

I don't get this whole problem people have with his background. The school of science and math, as per the article, represents a multiracial environment where there are not problems between these groups. Not mentioned in the article is that it's affluent, of course.

BlackJesus.....Are you trying to make my thread less cool by making your own on the same issue?
but seriously, I hate it when people (aka the comments below the article) talk about the 'trials that african americans have to face'. I dont believe that for a minute, we all have trials we have to face, based on race, sex, religion, etc. I guarantee I get discriminated against for my religion more that any minority gets discriminated for their race, especially blacks (never understood why they are still called african americans, i bet they cant name one ancestor that was from africa).
Its called life. Quit your crying, get over it.

Jesus you people are stupid.
There is absolutely no way in FUCK it is ok to hand out University collateral with the n-bomb on it.
PERIOD.
AT BEST it makes the University a laughingstock around the country.
AT WORST it implies that the University endorses racial animosity.
AT ANY LEVEL it is a giant black mark on the face of the University.
It doesn't WHO the word on the wall offends, the idea is that NONE OF THE IMAGES OF OUR CAMPUS should be offensive.
If you can't understand that, then you're as fucking obtuse as the moron kid that wrote this article.
