U. Virginia Clarifies That Student Multicultural Center is for All Members of the Community

“In order to foster the diversity of experience and ideas that make UVA a great and good place to study and work”

The school had to do this after a student complained that there were too many white people in the center.

The Cavalier Daily reports:

U.Va. clarifies that the Multicultural Student Center is open to all members of the University community following calls of ‘racial intolerance’

The University released a statement on social media Wednesday evening affirming that all members of the community are welcome in the recently expanded Multicultural Student Center after a video of a student stating there were “too many white people” using the facility went viral.

“In order to foster the diversity of experience and ideas that make UVA a great and good place to study and work, these centers are open to all members of the University community,” the University wrote in a statement. “They complement existing student-focused spaces such as the 1515 Building on the Corner, opened in March 2017, and Ern Commons in the Alderman Road residential area, opened in March 2012.”

In the video, which has over 2.7 million views, the student states that the MSC is a space for people of color, adding that white people should be more cognizant of the space they occupy.

“Frankly, there’s just too many white people in here, and this is a space for people of color, so, just be really cognizant of the space that you’re taking up because it does make some of us POCs uncomfortable when we see too many white people in here,” the student said in the video.

Young America’s Foundation, a conservative youth group, criticized the student’s statement as an example of “racial intolerance.”

It won’t help. Bigots don’t stop acting bigoted because someone put out a “statement on social media” saying they should stop. A year from now, there won’t be any white faces to be found in the place.

    I give it til the end of the semester. Next term the poor oppressed minorities will have marked it as their territory and no white in his right mind will step foot in the place.

This let’s us know in the minds of the parasites “multicultural” means anti-White.

What the hell is “racial intolerance”?

We used to have a more succinct term for it. I think it was something like “racism”.

“There’s two things I cannot stand – bigots, and white people!”

““Frankly, there’s just too many white people in here, and this is a space for people of color, so, just be really cognizant of the space that you’re taking up because it does make some of us POCs uncomfortable when we see too many white people in here,” the student said in the video.”

Huh. Strangely, I get the feeling that if I had said this exact paragraph – changing only white to black – I would not receive the same acclaim that this student did. Quite the contrary, in fact.

I say it = racist
She says it – Wokerati!

When I was in college, which was a long time ago, the black students took over the Student Commons on campus and had to “approve” of any white person who wanted to buy a burger at one of the fast food places there. I wandered in there one day, hungry and not knowing the “rules,” and was told, albeit politely, that I didn’t belong there. I bought my burger and never went back. So, this bigotry has been going on for a long time. We just didn’t talk about it back then.

No rebuke, just a gentle no, but keep throwing your tantrums without consequence and we will let it slide.

I hope she offs herself from lack of attention.

We are all people “of color.”

We’re now at the point where “people of color” can make blatantly racist, obnoxious, infantile and denigrating statements about “white” people, and, completely get away with it.

Who are these “white” people, exactly? They are Italian-Americans, Irish-Americans, Polish-Americans, and, many others. All groups that experienced discrimination in American society, at one time.

Leftists’ continued attempts to denigrate “white” people, en masse, represents a contemptibly and manifestly racist attempt at slandering millions of people with a broad brush of vilification, while denying them any modicum of individuality and humanity.
