Comment on White Fraternity Students Hold Racist Party in ‘Honor’ of Black History Month by Brent

When people make these parallels like what if it was a “white trailer trash party” they seem to ignore a long history of the oppression and discrimination of black people that continues butnot at the same compacity as in the past . California’s lack of a diverse student body I believe has allowed people to feel comfortable spreading their racist views, and to think these will be the future people running our country. How should black people feel when they go to a job interview knowing that there interviewer may have been the man who wrote “Compton Lynchings” or “ungrateful niggers”. We must face the fact that we do not live in a color blind society. As for this being a private activity Fraternities and Sororities are associated with the school and must follow school policies. This act also did involve breaking into a building which is illegal. We can also see from their racist responses that this was racially charged and not simply just a joke.

I take offense to your comment regarding “uneducated UCSD white trailer trash”. You best not handle ignorance with further ignorance. That makes you as guilty as the people you criticize.
I am a former UCSD student, am completely appalled by these acts. I am not white, I am not uneducated, and I am not trailer trash. Thank you but no thank you.

Wow. I am shocked that I even said wow. I guess I feel that if these prejudiced young people want to celebrate their predjudiced views then so be it. They did it on a campus with very few black people. They clearly aren’t as stupid as they look. I like to see my hater coming. At least now the students on campus know who to avoid. If people are disgusted by Black History Month existing, maybe they should do what my department here at work did. IGNORE IT. LOL wow.

Frat boys and Sorority girls are encouraged to these racist, insensitive and delusional ways of viewing things because of HOW they were raised and the types of people that raised them.

JP, you know how to adress a whole issue at once.
The whole problem at UCSD is caused by racism on both sides of the fence. If people can learn not to go overboard when it comes to racism, then there won’t be these kinds of reactions or issues. If we as a nation can all learn tolerance of each other, as well as overcome short-fuse tempers about racism, we can actually move foreward and get something positive done, instead of wasting time on stuff like this, or undoing the struggles of the people that won equality for all races. honestly, there are problems in California that are way more important than fighting over another stereotype party.
