Mizzou Black Studies Dept. Co-Sponsors Speaker Who Compares Israeli Jews to Nazis
Campus leftists promote bigotry and hate the same day the university president resigns.

On the same day that Missouri University (MU) President Timothy M. Wolfe resigned over “racism,” the MU Black Studies Department co-sponsored a lecture by David Sheen, a journalist who regularly compares Israelis to Nazis. The lecture was called “Racism in Israel.” The event was hosted by the MU Socialists, who posted the following description: “Remember the systematic racism experienced at Mizzou is part of the violent global system of white supremacy. Come to our event tomorrow night to learn more about connections between racism in Israel & racism on campus.” David Sheen is an anti-Zionist Israeli and an associate of Max Blumenthal, a notorious anti-Israel radical who has made comparing Israeli Jews to Nazis his career. The two were involved in an incident dubbed "Toiletgate" earlier this year when they chased a left-wing German politician into a toilet stall after he canceled a presentation they were slated to give in the German parliament. The MU Socialists have a history of anti-Israel events, and the lecture was sponsored by multiple groups. But, when I saw that the flyer read, "Sponsors: ... Black Studies Dept," I assumed the Black Studies Department was not fully informed about David Sheen.

Thus, I sent the Black Studies Department a letter requesting that it withdraw its co-sponsorship. The letter started by stating that I “applaud your effort to raise awareness of the difficulties facing African refugees.” The letter explained that trying to improve the situation for Africans is admirable, but Sheen goes beyond criticism of Israel and compares Israelis to Nazis. For example, when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, “Israel is preparing to stop, as much as possible, the entry of people with Ebola,” Sheen twisted Netanyahu’s words, and tweeted, “Just as Nazis compared Jews to vermin to incite racism against them, Netanyahu compares non-Jewish Africans to ebola.” A totally false claim.

In one lecture, Sheen discussed the African refugee detainment center in Israel. Sheen showed the sign near the entrance of the center which read “Office of Employment.” Then Sheen stated, “This is the only thing they’ve left for us to be reminded of,” showing a picture of the sign at Auschwitz that read, "Arbeit macht frei," meaning, "work makes (you) free." Showing pictures of the African refugee center interspersed with Auschwitz is a clear comparison of Israeli Jews to Nazis. The letter I sent stated, “Sheen commits an egregious iniquity when he equates the temporary housing conditions of undocumented Africans to ‘Auschwitz’... This comparison is actually a well documented form of antisemitism known as ‘Holocaust Inversion.’” The Black Studies department responded by sending me an invitation to come hear Sheen speak.

...

That being said, it was admirable that the Black Studies Department wanted to support a lecture raising awareness of the racism African refugees are experiencing. However, at the moment when Sheen’s criticism left the realm of facts and became false accusations, then any concern for the refugees became totally obscured. Instead, the accuser accuses himself. In summary, I and thirty-six organizations alerted the Black Studies department that Sheen would portray Israeli Jews as Nazis and that any speaker denying the right of the Jewish State to exist is a form of anti-Semitism. Sheen did both. Right now, many people are waiting for a statement from the Chancellor condemning the swastika drawn with feces. In a figurative sense, Sheen is a speaker who draws a swastika on the entire Jewish State. Which is worse?

Black Lives Matter protest terrorizes Dartmouth; students pushed, shoved, cussed out
Jennifer Kabbany - Fix Editor •November 16, 2015

Dartmouth College students simply studying in the library on the night of Nov. 12 got the shock of their lives when a profanity-laced mob of Black Lives Matter student protesters stormed the building and dropped F-bombs left and right, as well as pushed and shoved some students, the Dartmouth Review reports.

“F*** you, you filthy white f***s!” “F*** you and your comfort!” “F*** you, you racist s***!” …

The flood of demonstrators self-consciously overstepped every boundary, opening the doors of study spaces with students reviewing for exams. Those who tried to close their doors were harassed further. One student abandoned the study room and ran out of the library. The protesters followed her out of the library, shouting obscenities the whole way.

Students who refused to listen to or join their outbursts were shouted down. “Stand the f*** up!” “You filthy racist white piece of s***!” Men and women alike were pushed and shoved by the group. “If we can’t have it, shut it down!” they cried. Another woman was pinned to a wall by protesters who unleashed their insults, shouting “filthy white b****!” in her face.

The Review goes on to report that the protesters have not only not denied the description of the evening, but defended it as making students uncomfortable in the name of fighting oppression.

And even though it seems like it could not get worse, it does. The Review goes on to note:

The kicker, of course, is that this crystal clear picture of Dartmouth’s deep-seeded racism never quite seems to come into focus, no matter how far we step back. From the protesters, we hear anecdotes about insensitive party themes, and reminders of our lack of black professors. And of course, these issues fit into the broader context of a school characterized by historical wealth and whiteness, which can make students from other backgrounds feel forlorn outside the cultural mainstream. But as Dartmouth’s protesters swept through the library, bellowing at every student who dared not to stand for the cause, they were accusing our community of something much graver than insufficient attention to minorities’ concerns.

Mandatory Sensitivity Training on Campus
Campus totalitarians and their call for Maost self-recrimination sessions.

As campuses across the country are roiled in paroxysms of self-righteous indignation over race, groups of black students, perhaps inspired and emboldened by the anarchistic successes at University of Missouri, have formed coalitions and presented elaborate, and breathtakingly audacious, lists of demands which they have nailed to the doors of their respective university administrations.

An ever-growing list of these remarkably outrageous demands is even being archived at a site, The Demands.org, and which, as of this week, comprised the juvenile manifestos of groups on over 60 campuses, including calls for removals of college presidents (as happened at University of Missouri, as the most conspicuous and significant example), the renaming of buildings and schools named for racists and other moral reprobates (as happened at Princeton and indignation over its former president, Woodrow Wilson), and various similar calls for increased recruitment of minority faculty and students, enhanced centers and facilities for minority students, increased financial aid to “students of color” and other underrepresented groups, and a litany of other minority-centric benefits and amenities.

“The power to be found in victimization, like any power,” wrote Shelby Steele in The Content of Our Character, “is intoxicating and can lend itself to the creation of a new class of super-victims who can feel the pea of victimization under twenty mattresses.” Apparently, the new victims in the culture of aggrievement that seems to have overtaken our campuses have been irritated by the ‘hard pea’ of racism and want everyone else on campus to know and feel their pain, as well, since almost all the lists of demands from the campus crybullies includes one well-intentioned, but intellectually pernicious, item; namely, mandatory sensitivity training on the details of diversity, oppression, racism, and other maladies purportedly afflicting marginalized student groups on today’s campuses.

At Scripps College, for example, activists demanded “mandatory Anti-Oppression Trainings” for faculty, staff, and students, including the Orwellian requirement that students not be able to register for classes each semester unless they attend the forced re-education. At Princeton, The Black Justice League demanded “cultural competency training for all staff and faculty.”

Members of University of Missouri’s Concerned Student 1950 included the demand that the School “creates and enforces [a mandatory] comprehensive racial awareness and inclusion curriculum throughout all campus departments and units,” which “must be vetted, maintained, and overseen by a board comprised of students, staff and faculty of color.”

Students at Bard College called for “Diversity and Sensitivity Workshops multiple times a semester to faculty and staff at all levels,” providing “continuous in-person training regarding cultural understanding, engagement with bias, the use of inclusive language, etc.” Boston College activists called for mandatory “Diversity & Anti-Oppression Training,” while Brown University’s Concerned Graduate Students of Color “demand[ed] an in-person and compulsory Title IX training for faculty, staff, DPS, administrators, and students. . . .”

The Dartmouth reeducation commissars similarly want to introduce “curricular changes that require all students to interrogate issues of social justice, marginalization and exploitation in depth, and Duke’s list calls for “mandatory learning on institutional racism and anti-oppression practices for both students and faculty.”

At the Harvard School of Public Health the call was for “instituting mandatory training on race and privilege for all students, post-docs, staff, and faculty, developing case studies that challenge social injustice, and increasing practicum opportunities on themes of racism and health;” at Johns Hopkins University, a “mandatory cultural competency in the form of a semester long class requirement;” at NYU, “perpetual, continuing education on diversity for all university members;” at Purdue, “a required comprehensive racial awareness curriculum for all students, staff, faculty, administration, and police;” at Sarah Lawrence, a required “anti-racist course or class for credit, such as is required for Physical Education [italics added];” and, at the University of San Diego, “the creation of a [mandatory] comprehensive orientation on racial, gender, and queer inclusion and diversity . . , maintained by a board comprised of students, staff and faculty from diverse, less privileged backgrounds.”

I think this new obsession with Social Media affects young girls especially in a very bad way. I saw a show on 13 year olds and it was scary. One girl said she takes 100 to 150 selfies a day so that she can post the one that's perfect. I'm thinking she's not spending a lot of time on math homework, you "follow" me?
 
Mizzou Crybullies Demand "Academic Bankruptcy" for Black Students

The University of Missouri Concerned Crybullies of Color got their way when the football team went on strike leading to a wave of crybully attacks on campuses across the country. These attacks were backed by increasingly insane demands.

Now Concerned Student 1950, the crybully protest group, has some more great demands. Like Academic Bankruptcy, a very appropriate name though not in the way the crybullies and their allies think.

...

Sound like a terror group or a gang holding hostages, don't they? But on to... Academic Bankruptcy.

...

So not only will there be lots and lots of affirmative action to uphold black privilege... but black and minority students will be allowed to eliminate an entire semester if they decide to. Also...

...

Comprehensive racial awareness must be enforced! Achtung! We demand mandatory racial awareness!

...

Imani Simmons-Elloie conveniently authored these demands. Are there any semesters she wants to erase from her records.

How many of those who defended the "hunger strike" and the rest of the crybully hysteria still feel like defending Academic Bankruptcy?

It all goes back to parenting and lack there of. Parents today can't stand the thought of a teacher disciplining their kid because their kid is perfect. They can't stand it when a coach gets intense so they ask for the coach to be fired. Same with teachers. A teacher tries to run a tight ship with good discipline and some parent wants the teacher fired because heaven forbid the teacher demand students behave. Yup, it all goes back to parenting.
 
'Our culture used to encourage modesty and humility and not bragging about yourself

When did that ever happen?

Which parents are these? I haven't met them.
