Said it before and I’ll say it again. White liberals are not ally’s

Haven't read one single thing, but it is America.

After a symposium featuring an African-American speaker in the run-up to the 2020 election, Newman said he posted on a professor’s forum page asking if further dialogue could be had on "whether: (1) Black voters didn’t question turning to government for solutions, and (2) reliably voting for the same party every election disincentivized both parties from responding to the needs of the black communities."

This sounds like the ADOS and FBA movements and much of the rhetoric found on this site. What's the difference?

Likely the lead up to it which was,

Following discussions of Newman’s purported racial insensitivity, students learned of a tweet from Newman’s private Twitter account that included a picture of a slave baring his badly scarred back with the caption, "But we don’t know what he did before the picture was taken," according to the lawsuit.

Newman claimed the tweet was mocking commentators who "attempt to explain away videos of police brutality by claiming the victim must have committed wrongdoing before the video started." He alleged that students responded with references to his race, gender, sexual preference, age and personal appearance.

this cac was an agent anyway

parroting this bullshyt, that clown probably is one of the many blackphishers on here

Every other race overwhelmingly votes blue too. White people overwhelmingly vote red. Yet we are the only ones who get called out for voting for one party.

Similarly, all the other minorities say the same things about white people as us, overwhelmingly support their own, yet we’re the ones being called racist against whites now.

I don't know if I'm reading this right but it sounds like he was defending black people from police brutality with that tweet.

The picture seems like it was posted in response to *white* people questioning what a black person did off video to warrant the aggressive police response that they received.

He posted the picture of the badly scarred slave as if to say it's ridiculous to question what the slave did before the picture was taken to warrant the barbaric treatment it received.

I don't know the full story but it seemed like people quickly reacted to him posting the picture and also being white.

Again, I don't know the full story but just reading it seems like people were being a bit cancel culture trigger happy with that situation, if that tweet situation played out the way he's saying.

Yeah but you know how some people are, they see him post that and think he was mocking the incident and the man in the photo. Its like you want to be objective and give people the benefit of the doubt like 'they wouldn't do something like that/this" but you know its tiresome.

Like take this Dilbert thing for instance, I'm reading some comments from the usual suspects on it and they're basically "what he said was true" in variations.

Its like did this guy really do this to defend or was he just trying to get one over. I don't know.

Keep a hard eye on this case and who and what groups are backing this cac.

It's pretty crazy.

I just saw an interaction between two black liberal feminist intellectuals regarding the Florida AP African American Studies debacle. One was upset that bell hooks was removed from the curriculum. The other person, who looked like a bell hooks protege, and who sits on the AP board, responded that they had to slim down the curriculum and that they couldn't include everything and everybody in one course. The person responded that you can't teach African American Studies without the inclusion of bell hooks. The AP board person responded that black feminism doesn't begin and end with bell hooks and that there are other black feminist included in the curriculum, including Sojourner Truth, Ida B. Wells Barnett, and Mary Church Terrell. The other person was just completely inflexible, not trying to hear her point, and they both ended up cancelling each other.

You're suppose to be intellectuals and have the ability to entertain opposing views but have completely allowed yourself to be inflexible and not understanding. Two people, cut from the same cloth, fighting for the same things, cancelled each other, because of emotion.

I don't understand this current culture.

Talked to someone at Howard Law now who was familiar with this guy. Said he was just an agent of chaos from the start and went there with the intention of starting problems.

This is true too. People may just be exasperated with having to be vigilant all the time. The result could be overreaction or misreading a situation.

But if he came in being purposely contrarian and dysfunctional, then Howard had to do what it had to do.

What's his coli username

I know people from Howard Law. White people have been going there for years with no issue, this dude is probably a conservative clown trying to push his agenda.

But...

It kinda sounds like he ran into new school sensitive Gen Z classmates. In past he would've been debated and clowned on but now they are reporting him to the admin for hurting their feelings with his questions.

Either way case dismissed, FOH cac
