Man Holding N-Word Sign at Kansas State is Black, Not in ‘Blackface’ as Student Paper Claimed

Man Holding N-Word Sign at Kansas State is Black, Not in ‘Blackface’ as Student Paper Claimed

“We now live in MAGA World, where racism is fashionable once again — from the White House to the Statehouse”

Every time this word is in the news, it’s over something incredibly stupid.

The College Fix reports:

Guy holding n-word sign at Kansas State U. is black, not in ‘blackface’ as claimed

A guy holding a provocative sign with the n-word on Kansas State University’s campus is actually black, not a white guy blackface, according to the student newspaper.

Last week someone showed up at the public university campus holding a sign that read “Say [n-word] win candy.”

The incident understandably upset a liberal columnist, but he also rushed to blame a recently passed free speech law as well as Donald Trump supporters. He later had to amend the article after it came to light the sign holder was not a white person in blackface.

“When the Kansas Legislature passed the so-called KIRK Act to prevent colleges and universities from regulating political activism on campus, I warned that lawmakers were rolling out a welcome mat for unsavory characters with even more unsavory messages, causing problems where problems didn’t exist,” Dion Lefler wrote in The Wichita Eagle on Friday.

The KIRK Act, named for Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, aims to strengthen free speech rights on campus.

Lefler chalked up the racist incident to the Act, as well as Trump and his supporters.

“We now live in MAGA World, where racism is fashionable once again — from the White House to the Statehouse,” he wrote.

Lefler also said “we all know who to blame when grossly inappropriate things happen on our university campuses and hands get thrown.”

“We also know who to blame when promising young students of color, from Kansas and throughout the nation, cross this entire state off their list of colleges to visit,” he said.

It turns out that the person to blame, following his logic, is a black guy.

Yesterday, Lefler ran a column sort of apologizing for rushing to judgement, although he did not acknowledge it was a black person who had the sign. All he said was it’s not true it “was a white person made up to look Black.”

He also held fast to his criticism of the KIRK Act and said the law “hamstrings administrators’ authority to regulate activism on campuses and gives extremists nearly unfettered access to what is essentially a captive population of young people

The “blackface” rumor came from a local NAACP chapter, according to The Kansas State Collegian.

dont forget the violence from the lefty::

…. video starts with a white student holding what appeared to be candy he got for saying the N-word.
Another white student approached and challenged the candy holder to say it again.

Words were exchanged and the student who had intervened slapped the other student across the face before they both walked away.

It’s SO important how this guy looked that you can’t find a photo of him anywhere!

    There’s a photo in the original article at kansas.com. He’s wearing fairly short shorts, and if he is in blackface he did a very thorough and convincing job of it.

“…gives extremists nearly unfettered access to what is essentially a captive population of young people…”

Does this refer to faculty?

“We now live in MAGA World, where racism is fashionable once again — from the White House to the Statehouse,” he wrote.

Meanwhile, leftists like Dion Lefler have escaped from the Outhouse.

    DEI made racism popular again — and DEI is Progressive, not MAGA.

    “Kendi’s doctrine has received criticism for itself endorsing racist ideas, including a call for reversing historical discrimination by engaging in present-day discrimination against white people.” — PSYCHOLOGY TODAY

The sign read “Say [n-word] win candy.”

What I want to know is how many people won candy.

The P.O. receives thousands of letters from kids asking Santa for stuff, but after Christmas, only two or three send letters thanking him.

Likewise, thousands of news media had articles accusing a white guy of wearing black face encouraging people to say the n-word. But after it was discovered not true, only two or three bothered to correct it.
