intervarsity christian fellowship had their status changed because their beliefs do not allow for the diversity required of groups with campus privileges.
access to community halls, dorms.. this will affect 23 campuses.
in response intervarsity is claiming reverse discrimination and restricting freedom of speech.
Free speech is not at risk in this situation. You can say whatever you like, but that doesn't mean there won't be consequences.
I could hypothetically say that everyone on this forum sucks. (I would never do that!) But, the consequences would likely be that I wouldn't have many friends on here.
idk if waking up has been good for me.
i still have almost no friends.
im still waiting to graduate this december to qualify n b certified for my job.
Human tendency is to prefer the evil we know to the evil we don't know.
Congratulations on leaving the old evil behind, because there was no chance of things changing for the better, and then grabbing the unknown, which is difficult right now but has every possibility of becoming a much happier life.

other than the story, the comments are very interesting, tons of comments by other blacks claiming the same thing happens to them.
not only other blacks but their families as well bully them, calling them oreo, traitor, etc.
Eom, I'm sorry to drop the conversation last night, but I went to bed. I haven't figured out the quote function, but I will answer the 3 parts of your response one at a time.
Part 1: There is no evidence for the first scenario, but lots of evidence for the second, namely, that blacks who go through school and are equally qualified suffer more unemployment.
Part 2: Pistoff has provided a great academic paper on the subject and I noticed that all of the references are hyperlinked. Happy studying.
Part 3: I'm not sure I understand your response. My post was about punishment and your response was about crimes committed. I will restate it, though. If blacks compose less than 20% of the population, then there should be a similar ratio in prisons, but there's not. Blacks and whites commit crimes at about the same rate, but blacks are punished more harshly.
The phrase "all other things being equal" means that after controlling for other factors there is still a discrepancy. A well designed study can rule these things out and then come to conclusions based on only relevant data.
Any academic study uses statistics to prove its thesis, so, sparrowdown, it's about statistics as well as stereotyping.

This is the, "I've suffered, too." response. It does not negate either the person's unique life experience nor the existence of institutional racism.
Whining about people who say the meritocracy is a myth doesn't make it any less true. Just because people have succeeded despite difficult circumstances means neither that the meritocracy myth is not true nor that others who have put forth equal effort haven't failed.
True, life is unequal and unfair, but it's more unequal and more unfair for others simply because of their race.
my husband and i (both born in jws with extended family all "in" except for one of my sisters who left when we did) left the church 5 years ago.
we did not fade, we just didn't believe it anymore, told our families so and left.
obviously, big drama in our family after this, messy feelings, etc.
The great crowd in revelation stood before the throne, clearly putting then in heaven not on a paradise earth. Don't have chapter and verse.

Sorry, EOM, I forgot to answer the question in your first paragraph and the answer is yes. Blacks are victims of all of those things even if they don't statistically commit the most crimes. That's called institutional racism when a minority is singled out for things that are not statistically supported by real world statistics.
Blacks form less than 20% of the population. White people commit more crimes, but blacks are punished more harshly for the same crimes.
Blacks with the same level of education as whites suffer from higher unemployment and lower salaries.
When all other things are equal, blacks have worse outcomes than whites. Proven with statistics, it's a phenomenon called institutional racism and its counterpoint is white privilege where statistics show a white person to be more likely to have a positive result.

@EOM. So, now you know the reason for white privilege? It's because blacks really do do things to deserve the discrimination? That's an ugly accusation.
This is actually an academic area of study, not just a theory. It is backed by statistics. And there is no evidence that blacks are encouraging the phenomenon. In fact, there are academic discussions about the function of the kind of shaming that you speak about. It's about policing group boundaries. A subjugated group survives because of group cohesion. Again, research it. I am unable to write an academic paper on the subject for this forum.
@Violia, I, of course, can't speak to your personal experience, just as you can't speak of the experiences of other ethnicities. Which, of course, is the point. This is a macro phenomenon not well understood at the personal level.

Eom, simply because your ancestors were white, you benefit from white privilege. You are pulled over less often by the police, you enjoy a higher employment rate and can shop in public without suspicion, among other things.
Please research this. It's a verified phenomenon. It's designed to be invisible to those who benefit from it.

Why does this 7% statistic keep coming up? It proves the OPPOSITE of what Paris thinks it does!
7% of doctors recommend Treatment A and 93% recommend Treatment B. It seems Paris would go ahead and choose Treatment A...

Darwin Award for that instructor.
