OU Volleyball player sues school after being called racist

A former University of Oklahoma volleyball player is suing the school and her ex-coaches, alleging she was labeled a racist because of her politically conservative views. Kylee McLaughlin, 22, a former Sooners standout, claims she was frozen out of the team last summer because her beliefs didn’t mesh with those of her coaches and teammates, The Oklahoman reported. She claims she was forced into being a redshirt in the 2020-21 season and decided to transfer to the University of Mississippi for the final year of her athletic eligibility, according to the news outlet.
quote:
After the murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police in May 2020, the team began hosting discussions about white privilege and social justice, McLaughlin said in court documents cited by The Oklahoman. During a team discussion on June 11, 2020, the players were required to watch the 2016 documentary “13th” about the incarceration of blacks in the US and slavery, according to the report.
quote:
McLaughlin claims in her lawsuit that the documentary was slanted “left,” “took some shots” at former President Donald Trump and “compared it with beatings of blacks in the 1960s.”
quote:
When asked about her thoughts, McLaughlin said, she stated “that she agreed 100% that slavery was wrong and the slaves were mistreated; and, that statistics showed that.” She also noted the disproportionate incarceration rates for blacks and said they were jailed “mostly for marijuana and drugs,” her lawsuit states. At least one black fellow player later indicated she found McLaughlin’s comments to be racist, according to the document. McLaughlin claimed her teammates also called her racist in social media — and that her beliefs were raised again when she tweeted that the University of Texas should not get rid of its fight song, “Eyes of Texas.”
quote:
McLaughlin claimed her coaches and school administrators told her she didn’t fit the culture of the program and gave her three options to continue — none of which involved playing time. She said she was told she could transfer or continue on scholarship as a typical student, not an athlete.

I’m sure some leftist judge will issue a “no standing” ruling

Time for us all to stand up and fight back. People just shut up so they aren’t labeled racist and cancelled but they can’t do that to half the country. As a whole we are very strong. We just have to stick together and stand up for each other. I’m not backing down on my beliefs and will be fighting the BS narrative of leftists moving forward. If this young 20’s chick can do it then we can too. Posting about it on TD with everyone who already agrees isn’t going to do anything though. We have to fight this in our private and public lives as well.

Good post. I was watching a video last night some academic being interviewed by the Sun about critical theory’s. It’s an hour long but he a made a point in there estimating 8-15% of the US to be in the groups of hardcore leftist activist woketards and that population demographics (or something can’t remember what he called it) say that’s enough to flip even a super majority. We have to fight this bullshite. Progressives make it even more difficult by refusing to hold debate with our highest level thinkers.

Gotta admit it feels weird reading one of your posts and not immediately wanting to shite on your school and call you Daniel. You’re not all that bad

As I recall it's generally figured 10% of the pop is enough to overthrow a government.
Because the other 90% are bunch of morons with their heads in the sand.
