Southern University Racism Alive

[Jermyn Davidson]

I only wonder about the other things that have probably happened over the years that were never caught on video.

I am glad this was!

To think that there are young people that think that this is a good thing to think and act this way-- smh.

I saw the video on YouTube. Reprehensible, to put it nicely. Good for the national SAE to suspend them. Hope OU kicks them out of school, though it's doubtful more than the one moron will be identified.

The insidious sin of racism. It's hard to prosecute or even punish someone for their thoughts or actions if they don't affect others-- but I bet that blacks have been purposefully not allowed to join that fraternity.

I hate that bigots use my Confederate colors for their own cause. I just heard that the students involved put a Confederate flag up in the window of their frat house they are now abandoning.

The Confederate flag became a symbol of hatred a long time ago.

um, ya? and rebellion, and...yikes? i just cringe every time i hear "Christian" paired with "Rebel," lol. Kaiser, you seem very humble; you gotta know a bleeding black person would bypass your door if there was a rebel flag in the window. I'm curious your justification for the identification with it; it must have another meaning for you.

Why the emphasis on the school being in the South?

You need a history lesson my friend. The Southern States did not "rebel".
