If white students felt as if they were not having their needs met due to racial problems I would not consider such a request racist. Racist means that you believe a certain race is superior or another inferior. Wanting to be around your own people is not racist unless that criteria is met. If the Black students were saying they didnt want to be around white people because they felt whites were beneath them then you would have a point.
And an all male list of demands wouldn't be sexist. Sure.
Semantics aside it is racial discrimination and what kind of special needs to blacks have? Somehow a whole lot of them managed without segregating themselves from other races. It's a stupid idea and should have just been laughed at when it was brought up.
Why would an all male list of demands be sexist?
No its not racial discrimination. The fact you have to ask what kind of special needs Blacks have is a great example of why they are asking for all Black support system. Its a brilliant idea that should be applauded and accommodated by the school.
Okay, so I have misjudged the height of your hilarious idealism.
If this is a good policy, to hire 8 additional full-time staff members for 3% of the student population, rename a building, and provide special accommodation for meetings - then you must do this for the 11 different races that Berkeley recognizes.
Now, the best way to make sure all races are accommodated, it should go by percentage of population.
Whites are only 27% of the students...so if 8 are needed for 3% - then Berkely should immediately hire an additional 194 staff members, all race-specific, to ensure that all races are treated equal.
Yes, this makes perfect sense.
God you people are dumb.
Sorry, I am not usually so insulting, but this is just over the top stupid.
