Alabama anti-DEI law shuts Black Student Union office

[Guno צְבִי]

There was one major deciding factor in Cierra Gilliam’s decision about where to go to college.

When she toured the University of Alabama's flagship campus in Tuscaloosa, her guide took her to the Black Student Union office on the first floor of the student center. Gilliam said there were Black students there offering resources for trips to and from the airport, as well as hair salons in Tuscaloosa that could style Black hair, and insights about what it was like to live at a predominantly white institution.

Gilliam said that the Black Student Union’s visible presence on campus was one of the main reasons that her parents let her go to school a nine-hour drive away in an unfamiliar state.


Last week, however, at the outset of her senior year, the Black Student Union announced that the group would no longer have a designated place on campus, in compliance with recent statewide legislation that prohibits public universities and state agencies from allocating resources to diversity equity and inclusion programs –- often referred to as DEI.

Is there a White Student Union?

yes or no

Alabama is a shit hole.
Virtually all of red state America is a shithole, or at least the places that I've experienced.
I can't imagine how people can live there.

Since the Negro thinks she is a different type of human she can go to Grambling State University. She will fit right in since its only 0.534% White


Again was there a White Student Union at Grambling!

 

[volsrock1]

Only 11% of the student body at the University of Alabama is Black

Only 0.534% of the student body at the Grambling State University is White


One needs a Union for one race...one does not because it would be racist to have it

UCLA officials plan to shut down white student union Facebook page - Daily Bruin

UCLA administrators said they intend to shut down the UCLA White Student Union Facebook page, in a statement released Tuesday to some student organization leaders. Officials said in the statement they think the page misrepresents UCLA and could mock student groups that advocate for equity.

Or is it OK to shut down one race based union but not the other

Most people I know from Alabama wouldnt as much as look at you let alone actually talk to you. They would see you as an ill tempered, rude, crass, foul mouthed caveman lacking basic manners and unworthy of communicating with.

Was your thread about Dana Bash an example of "basic manners?"

Is there a White Student Union?

I believe that would be called the Student Union.

The reason Black Student Unions exist is because most campuses in the US are primarily white-dominated. A Black Student Union is not a threat to anyone with a functioning brain. It is there to help the minority number of students who are often coming from a RADICALLY DIFFERENT millieu than the white suburban kids that make up the majority of most college campuses.

BSU's exist to help these people find a place where they can be comfortable and better navigate a new world.

Why is that so threatening to the Right? Does EVERYTHING need to be gladiatorial combat trial for every person on the planet? Why can't people have a place to gather?

You want a white student union? Knock yerself out. You'll look like a bigot but that's OK. As a white person in the USA I normally don't need a place to go where I can feel more comfortable or get help navigating life in white America. As such there really isn't a need for a White Student Union except for petulant racists who can't stand that someone somewhere has something they don't have a need of.

Do you think there is no discrimination or racism in America?

Yes or no.

 

[Stone]

Do you think there is no discrimination or racism in America?

Yes or no.

Yes,....mostly by people like you.

So, surely, you can cite something I've said that is racist.
