>Racial tensions are inflamed at the University of California at Los Angeles following several incidents — most notably, one where a professor corrected the grammar, punctuation and capitalization in minority students’ assignments.
>The act of correcting a black student was “micro-aggression,” according to the members of the student group “Call 2 Action: Graduate Students of Color,” which launched a sit-in during a subsequent meeting of the class.
This is absolutely ridiculous.

We crackers don't usually create the issues, yet how much crap do we absorb from those of a different minority and then see us create such a big issue over something so small. Just look at the words of BILL FREAKIN COSBY on the issue of rascism.

Welcome to America.

Any organization that uses a number to substitute a word shouldn't be taken seriously.

This thread [i]is[/i] absolutely ridiculous. Often when people are accused of being racist they'll try to make it about a singular event. Something that seems minor or innocuous out of context. What the students are actually saying is that there is a climate of racism at the school. This isn't about one single event and trying to make it seem like it is is dishonest.

All minorities do nowadays is march around calling white people racist.

This is why minorities will always be at the bottom. Quit making excuses for yourselves and improve yourself.

I don't know how to respond to this very well. I think that might be a bit ridiculous.

Everyone's racist Bit it seems like he just wants to be on the news and sue UCLA. This is about on the same level as a Fem. yelling -blam!- because a guy is invading her space.

I got a black friend whos racially sensitive about everything like slavery was yesterday and i want to smack him sometimes.

Thanks Obama.

Another reason to get your kids out of public schools. These are their peers, you expect your child to learn a dang thing?

How do we know he's not racist?

Probably a bunch of white liberal do-gooders.
