A black bourgeoisie perspective on U.S. politics
You already know the block is fairly hot on the UCSD campus after some clowns thought a “Compton Cookout” theme party would go over like gangbusters.
Now, with racial tension running high on the campus, some other clowns–or perhaps the same ones–thought it was be hilarious to hang a noose in the university library. Here’s an account from the UC Regents Live blog
Tonight, around 12AM, the Student Regent Office was informed that a noose was found at the 7th floor of Geisel Library. The picture we show below is not to promote or display such disturbing images to the public, but to properly document such actions to the public, and condemn them for the racism they perpetuate.
This racism and fear is not acceptable. Not acceptable at all. We will fight this.
Umm…nooses aren’t hilarious.
