#WhiteGenocide: these were the words Indiana University students found written on fliers and in chalk around their campus last March. This white power message references the theory among supremacists that the increasing non-white population in the United States is a threat to eliminate white culture.
One student, Aidan Crane, explained in the Indiana Daily Student that he took it upon himself to tear down every flier he saw. He also encouraged his fellow Hoosiers to follow suit.
Dangerous movements grow from small seeds, Crane wrote. We have a responsibility to stop racism and white nationalism whenever they rear their ugly heads.
According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, the number of existing hate groups in the US has grown by 67 percent since the year 2000 and has increased by 813 percent since President Obama was elected into office, from 149 in 2008 to 1,360 groups in 2012.
The dramatic rise in hate groups over the past five years is also reflected in the copious amount of hate speech thats been increasingly visible on college campuses.
Last fall, Towson University senior Michael Heimbach founded a white student union that conducted nighttime patrols in order to protect students from what he called the schools black crime wave. After a series of racist symbols were found on campus (a Nazi flag and whites only sign above a water fountain), Oberlin College cancelled classes in March to hold a Day of Solidarity.
Most recently, an incoming freshman at Georgia State University named Patrick Sharp created another white student union, citing Heimbach as his inspiration.
While white student unions are generally met with resistance from other students on campus, college administrators defend their right to exist. Doug Covey, Georgia States vice president for student affairs, told The Huffington Post in August that he had already received a number of complaints, but all students at the university enjoy the right to engage in free speech.
More college administrators need to take a stand against white student unions on campus and be clear about having a zero tolerance policy for hate groups. Freedom of speech is, of course, constitutionally protected, but wildly misguided groupthink mentalities pose a threat to changing popular opinion and perception for the worse. The mere existence of white student unions on campuses creates a danger that can sometimes be just as harmful as physical injury: theyre toxic for students minds.
