white wine.


I've hung out with that guy a couple of times, never saw him with a glass of white wine. Ever. It's usually brown wine (whiskey) or black wine (Jager).

Govt will slowly use the SJW movement to push blacks into segregation with these "safe spaces".
I thought college was about learning not only academically, but socially. You're mixing with those from all over the world from all different backgrounds, which is what you will encounter in the working world.

Where posters with As next to their names long for the utopic days of Jim Crow and forced segregation when blacks thrived and were joyous, and an abundance of statistical evidence backs those perfectly reasonable assertions.

If that article is accurate it's not strictly racial segregation as it would be only for African American men as opposed to all black men (Africans, black Hispanics, West Indians, etc). I wonder which it is?

African immigrants and American blacks tend to hate each other.

At least the men. Everyone loved the lady from Africa, but the African dude at work is completely and fully ignored by the black men.

We need a brave white man to say no to segregation and enter the black dorm, even if the campus police bar the doors from him

Good Lord. Imagine the outrage if there was an all white dorm. If this is a state funded university, I sure hope someone takes this to court.

In 2012, the graduation rate for all UConn students was 82.5 percent, while the graduation rate for black males was 54 percent. That was the main impetus to build the new house, according to Hines.

There's a different and much larger reason for this and academic short-comings that no one out there wants to discuss because it's almost like a powder keg. But it's fact, plain and simple.

I have no issues. Heck, I want them to segregate themselves as much as possible

Therein lies the problem with the black extremist. They want to be separate yet included. In other words, they want all the right to create their black only spaces, but how dare you create a space where blacks may not enter

When this has no significant impact on the graduation rate of blacks, what will they try next?

If that doesn't work, UCONN will pay for the transfer to Howard

I think it is a great idea. Blacks have been oppressed by us for hundreds of years and they deserve their own housing so they can concentrate on their college studies. The only problem is that black kids in elementary school through HS don't have the same luxury that these college students are getting and the college students have to pay tens of thousands a year for their education. The government should make sure that every black kid at all levels gets their own school and isn't forced to interacte with white oppressors, as long as the schools are equal. The same goes for neighborhoods, healthcare, shopping malls, movie theaters....even cities and states. If white people cant stop oppressing black people they should have their own places to go where they feel 100% safe and no white people are allowed. I know white people will be upset by my comments because they want black people around but quite frankly if we aren't able to treat them fairly we don't deserve to have any interaction with them.
