http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/05/08/boston-university-prof-flunks-white-masculinity-in-controversial-tweets/

[quote]Critics say a newly-hired Boston University professor has crossed the line with recent tweets bashing whites, but the school says it’s simply free speech.

“White masculinity isn’t a problem for america’s colleges, white masculinity is THE problem for america’s colleges,” Saida Grundy, an incoming assistant professor of sociology and African-American studies at Boston University, tweeted in March.

In another tweet from January, she wrote: “Every MLK week I commit myself to not spending a dime in white-owned businesses. and every year i find it nearly impossible.”

In another, she called white males a “problem population.”

More evidence that white men are the real victims of oppression and discrimination. Sad

Imagine what would be the reaction if a white male said African American women are the problem in society. Nothing more needs to be said.

This thread is concern trolling from the Right. I stand by my previous post.

Fire her. There's talking about overarching problems in society, and there's hate speech. This is the latter.

The calling for a boycott of white-owned businesses is what troubles me more than the other quotes.

If it wasn't against whites, he'd be fired on the spot.  Racism against whites is acceptable, and encouraged on college campuses today.

Don't some white intellectuals say that the problem with black society is black men almost constantly? How is this statement substantially different from that in it's ridiculousness?

I'd pose the question to you. When "white intellectuals" say that, what do you label them?

Mistaken. But they don't deserve to be unemployed because I disagree with them.

African American woman in the top 5% of income earners wastes her time slagging white men beneath her station.

And she'll get no penalty for it. My prediction? If anything, she'll get promoted - and anyone against said promotion will be labeled.

The privilege of affirmative action.

No, because I'm aware there are plenty of fools arguing exactly that. But simply expressing concern or disagreement over what was in the original post does not mean you are immediately doing that.

White males in Boston are indeed a serious problem. The professor should get some worldly exposure before making such a general assessment however.

I've examined a few more of her tweets. Looks like she'll never be happy until white males set all of their slaves free.

Surprised she hasn't changed her name to Natalie (Nat) Turner.

Frightening that someone who is filled with so much hate, and publically so, and unashamedly so, ever attained a position like this.

She's a newly hired assistant professor of sociology and African-American studies, so I seriously doubt that that is the case.
