Willingly segregating yourselves is like taking ten steps backwards.
Apparently racism only goes one way.

I really want to hear this one.

How is having a “Black Student Center” racist?

Because it’s excluding other people based on color. Why does there have to be different institutions based on what color you are? Am I seriously the only person that thinks it’s wrong, in the 21st century, to be treating people differently because of what race they are?

Starting off my day with reading the ramblings of the most basic-ass bitches on the interwebz.

DO NOT ENGAGE. I don’t have the energy to explain to you the long history and nuances of racism, marginalization and the following movements for empowerment (i.e. exclusive spaces - which aren’t even that exclusive because the poor white folks’ feeleys wanting to be included). Y’ALL GOT THE REST OF THE FUCKING SPACE, CAN’T Y’ALL LET SOMEBODY DECIDE FOR THEMSELVES TO BE AWAY FROM Y’ALL’S FUCKERY?
shiiiiiiit.
