I was watching Bill Maher he was speaking of segregation on colleges and snapped the following screen shot, unfortunately it looks likes like the numbers are from a WSJ article that I can’t past the pay wall to see the full study. If this is true or even remotely true isn’t that going backwards in unity? This almost sounds like something Richard Spencer or his ilk would be clapping in favor of.
Here is the link I can’t see the full content, it’s not cached on my end either.
I agree it’s dumb I wonder if those those high numbers are correct. If so I have been in the dark, before that episode of Maher Friday I thought this was only happening in a few ivy league schools not these high percentages.
They mix freely during classes and other activities, it’s not borne of hatred. It does strike me as concerning, but they are choosing it as opposed to being forced by racist policies. I have mixed reactions in other words. That said, people, students in particular, do best when they feel comfortable and supported. I think someone should ask the students how it’s going and get more info before passing judgment.
I was just astounded by the percentage numbers, I have known this was going on for awhile but as I said to Canadian judo I had no clue this was this widespread, It’s basically segregation at campus at this rate if its really catching on this fast and those numbers are accurate.
Pretty sure many whites supported Jim Crow laws by choice. Doubtless they felt they did best when they felt comfortable and supported. Someone should have asked them how it’s going before ending those laws.
Right?
Like I said, I have mixed reactions. I have no doubt people are free to visit and hang out with friends in any of the self segregated areas. That does change the equation considerably.
Not surprising at all. Talking about and constantly obsessing over race. Incessently teaching how awful America is. Having no cultural unity while bringing together people’s of hundreds of different cultures and languages. If things go the way I think they will go, balkanization will be a dominant phenomenon in the US in 20 or so years from now.
