On The Air

The Detroit Free Press has the story of these brazen racists gallivanting about Ann Arbor, posting fliers in various lecture halls. The flyers are emblazoned with a logo labeled “Alt Right,” a symbol appearing to be associated with the National Policy Institute, a white nationalist think tank.

The flier titled, “Why White Women Shouldn’t Date Black Men,” features sections labeled, “He’s much more likely to abuse you,” “Your kids probably wouldn’t be smart,” and “Starts with brutal rape; gets much worse,” among others.

The fliers are the latest in a string of racist incidents on college campuses in recent weeks. There was the blackface Snapchat at Kansas State two weeks ago; last week brought racist Snaps from students at Belmont and Quinnipiac.

This is so ridiculous! This looks like Jim Crow’s list of laws about racial segregation, that institutionalized a number of economic, educational, and social disadvantages!

It is 2016! Not 1965, when these laws have ceased to have effect! And not even 1830, when the laws were created!
