This is why even millenials are getting turned off to the whole diversity issue (according to an article I just read). Even if you and everyone you know treats everyone the same, some people will just never get over their skin color. It's exhausting. I'm not going to spend my life bending over backwards. I may be white, but guess what, I have shite to deal with too. I'm not oppressing you so you dont expect me to cater to you either. Stupid bitch.

What I find amazing about this article is this:
1) She's a professor at Rutgers, so she's likely taking a commuter train.
2) As someone who took a commuter train into NYC for several years, I can tell you that it is the commuter train policy that all seats must be made available. The conductor actually has the right to forcibly remove your bag from the seat if you do not do it yourself, and you from the train if you make a stink about it. I have had to remove my bag several times for other traingoers.
3) If I was a parent sending my kid to the most expensive unversity in the country, I would be concerned that they are using that tuition money to bring in people that don't understand these basics.
