JIM CROW: Segregation-Loving Ivy League Students Demand Separate-But-Equal Dorms

Eric Owens  9-3-17

A gaggle of 17 far-left student groups at Princeton University released a lengthy “solidarity” statement in the campus newspaper which complains about all the racially integrated housing on campus and asks for racially segregated housing.
“The events in Charlottesville, Va., have made the presence of neo-Nazism and white nationalism in the United States undeniable,” the students group declare in their Daily Princetonian statement seeking separate housing based on skin color.
“At a white-serving and male-serving institution like Princeton University — with ties to slavery and racial and gendered exclusion — we must hold our university and each other accountable,” the pro-segregation statement says.
“It is not good enough to disapprove of or condemn racism, white supremacy, Nazism, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, ableism, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, transmisogyny, transmisogynoir, xenophobia, and any oppression of historically marginalized communities.”
Instead, the pro-segregation statement proclaims, everyone at Princeton must recognize the ways the fancypants Ivy League school “currently underserves students of color, LGBT and non-binary students, women, undocumented students, students with disabilities, and low-income students, despite touting diversity and inclusion.”
