University of Oklahoma Frat sings 'There will never be a nigger in SAE'

You know that nothing is safe in Oklahoma.

The tea is some frat at the University of Oklahoma has a video of them singing a racist song. Oh, and the video has gone viral, here's more:

According to Tulsa World, the national president of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity said Sunday evening that the OU SAE chapter has been given an immediate cease and desist order just hours after the video appeared online.

In the brief video, posted on Twitter by a group of black students called OU_Unheard, the frat brothers can be heard singing and clapping along to a song with the repeated lyrics of “There will never be a n****r SAE,” along with a line about lynching, “You can hang them from a tree (inaudible)”.

Classes are Canceled after a Hate Incident at Oberlin College


Foolishness alert!

Oberlin College canceled classes today after multiple hate-fulled acts of vandalism plagues the campus.

Here's more from HuffPo
Black History Month posters were defaced with the N-word, a note found at the LGBTQ Community Coordinator called it the "Nigger + Faggot Center," and someone wrote “Nigger Oven” in an elevator, among other incidents according to the Review. On several occasions, swastikas were drawn, the Cleveland Jewish News reports. 
Oberlin had previously scheduled a convocation for Wednesday in response to the "racist, homophobic, and anti-Semitic messages spread anonymously around campus," according to the school's Office of Communications, but moved it up to Monday afternoon. Prior to the convocation, there will be a "Rally Against Hate." A Feb. 13 march in response to the initial vandalism drew around 460 students, according to one student's count. 
"This has been another event in a string of several reflecting a terrible pattern of racism, prejudice, queerphobia, anti-semitism and other bias attacks that are happening on Oberlin's campus," Eliza Diop, liaison to the Student Senate, wrote in an email to her fellow students. "At this time, advocacy, support and solidarity are necessary emotionally, physically and spiritually." 
According to the website Student Activism, the sighting of a person dressed like a KKK member is the seventh hate incident at Oberlin in the past month.
Today they are holding a "Day of Solidarity" to address the incidents.

Great Hera! Racism in the Classrooms of Murray State

What is really going on in my alma mater?

Interesting! Throughout my undergrad and grad years at Murray State, I never experienced something like that. How could a teacher say something like that? What an asshole!

Racist attacks hit The UCs

Great Hera! What's really going on in Cali-Cal's universities?

A rash of racist foolishness just appeared out of nowhere lately.

First in UC San Diego, a frat held an event called, "Compton Cookout". This party mocked Black History Month with Black stereotypes.

Later in UC Santa Cruz officials found an image of a noose scribbled on the inside of a bathroom door. And back at UC San Diego, a KKK hood was found on a statue in front of the Geisel Library.

These incidents has sparked many rallies at the UC universities, we even held a rally here at USC.

The administrators are working hard to handle these incidents, however I am really proud of the students for standing up and protesting against the mess.
