In a scene reminiscent of the turbulent 1960’s, a black student group at the University of California Santa Cruz successfully occupied the main campus building until its demands were met by the school administration.
The African/Black Student Alliance updated its approach, calling the building takeover a “reclamation,” and issuing demands for immediate response while threatening additional demands.
For three days the group occupied Kerr Hall until Chancellor George Blumenthal agreed to their demands. As a result, all black and Caribbean-identified students now have a four-year housing guarantee to live in the Rosa Parks African American Themed House. The building’s lounge will be reopened, the exterior will be painted in “Pan-Afrikan” colors of red, green and black, and all UC Santa Cruz incoming students will be forced to undergo mandatory diversity competency training.
Find out what further demands the group has and the university’s rationale for giving in on the next page.
Tell them to go to Hell, and expelled them!!
This is ridiculous! They, like most blacks these days, think that they should get whatever they ask for, simply because they’re black, as if they feel entitled to a bigger piece of the pie than everyone else. They should be extricated from the university by military force. They don’t deserve a college education, they deserve prison time!
California is reaping what is has sown.,,
Stupid administration. Don’t deal with terrorist or blackmailers. Get some backbone and stand up to them.
You stupid$#%&!@*you gave them an inch now the fu kers wants a mile
Try it and your black asses will spend some jail time. The days of your demands are done – get that through your thick skulls.
This is simply blackmail! Take a hostage and make demands for money! Its illegal, simple as that! Once you bend to them, they will never stop! If the University bows to their demands, all government grants and federal money should be immediately stopped! Prosecute the blackmailers! (no pun intended)
nip it in the bud now!
The college is getting what it deserves , stupid is as stupid does. Its tax doiiar
stop their tax payer funded assistance
