Hundreds protest for second day, say UW-Madison response to racist video is insufficient

[seafoam1 3,514]

Protesting at a school who doesn't do mean things to someone who doesn't like black people? Liberals are such wimps.

Hundreds of UW-Madison students and faculty gathered at the bottom of Bascom Hill Thursday afternoon as they again protested against what many still see as a flawed response from the university’s administration to a racist viral video from earlier this week.

In the video, a white woman — believed to be a UW-Madison student — flung racial slurs and stated she wants to see some Black people returned to slavery so she can abuse them.

Dressed in black at the request of student group Blk Pwr Coalition, students protested by again chanting anti-racist sentiments, blocking the sidewalks on Library Mall by linking arms and closing down streets around the university as they marched. But the event also featured music, food trucks and spoken word poetry.

Blk Pwr Coalition students presented a list of demands to Chancellor Jennifer Mnookin on Wednesday morning and gave her until Thursday morning to respond. Mnookin met the group’s deadline, but the group, frustrated by that response, led a protest for a second consecutive day, as many students felt the response did not include any repercussions for the student in the video and lacked specificity for actions going forward.

In her response, Mnookin reiterated the apology she gave students Wednesday, expressing regret for the pain the video had caused for students. She also asked for future meetings with student leaders and said she was directing more mental health services to affected students and was telling instructors to grant students “grace and flexibility” in finishing assignments and finals as the end of the semester nears.

What a bunch of unemployed, entitled snowflake losers.  JHC, first world problems.  F'n Madison - that city is a cesspool (like Milwaukee).

You know what solves all this?  MANDATORY Infantry service at 18 in the Marines or Army - 4 years active duty minimum.  Men AND women.  Extended duty if you become a problem.  No enlisting in Coast Guard, Navy or Air Force.  Army or Marines - that's it.  College comes AFTER 4 years of service.

Calling for public hangings. The liberals are blood thirsty and demand that their institutions and government impose pain upon others who disagree with their mob mentality.

These are the future leaders of America that will make "hate speech" illegal at some point in the future.

"hate speech" = speech they disagree with.

Don't miss walking up that hill in the winter to get a class, not one bit.

They seem angry.  Probably because they are fat and the teams never win.

I sort of do.

 

I made it in Lincolns lap with a girl I knew from our years together in Junior High.  Met up one night outside Rocky Rococo's Pizza.  Had not seen each other in years.  We always sort of had it for each other but the timing never worked out.  I was walking her back to one of the lakeshore dorms.  She suggested the "stop".  It was a good night.  Walking up that hill towards Lincoln got me thereafter.

These same people were extremely quiet when a group of black people attacked a white lady on the street as she tried entering her apartment. Lots of videos of blacks being extremely racist yet not only are these people silent but also the black perpetrators in these incidences didn’t have any repercussions

Hey Billy.  You forgot to put the "Jean" in the middle of your alias there.  Might want to ask Mike to add it.

He caught 4 passes in 3 years, I wouldn't call that noteworthy, that's barely a footnote.

Randle El stats

Also, since he didn't graduate, is he considered an alum?

Close enough. Biden hasn’t even been president for three years and look what he’s accomplished. What did he major in? Drug dealing, pimp slapping and murder?

And spending of tax payer's money for useless things.

I'd like to hear the rant itself to determine if it's racist or not but it seems it's been scrubbed. A lot of times these things turn out to be nothing. Wisconsin-Madison is where the skyscreamers found a rock to be racist after all. Not to say that it's not racist, just want to see what set them all off is legitimately racist or not.

Yes he is an alum…. Alum doesn’t mean graduated…

Could be a mother of 4 whose youngest daughter was raped by one the nice equity in need people. But who knows? That information is not relevant in the big picture when it comes to liberals pushing their hate agenda.

These Fockin losers. Just sitting around waiting for a reason. Wisconsin will be gone soon, like the Pacific Northwest. Enjoy the hypos.

Damn, I spent all that damn money at UW, got a degree, get my Alumni magazine and I would have got that if I had only spent one semester. What a gyp.  And I had to go the backend of the interweb to find out what Alum means.

Are we ever going to see the video that pissed them all off so we can judge for ourselves. (I did find a poorly lit 8-10 second edited clip of a crying chick that did include slurs imbedded in a story denouncing her).

Who cares? Activists are idiots. They are even bigger idiots in Madison. 

Will never forget the first day I was there freshman year and a band of idiots was blocking state street protesting to free a cop killer.

Morons at that school protest for cop killers and they even found a large rock to be racist and had it removed at quite some effort. The thing is that maybe/conceivably they can actually come across something that actually resembles racism. They've presented a few second video snippet of a crying chick making racially charged slurs and are holding rallies condemning her, wanting her booted off campus. More context would be appreciated.
