    QUESTION: Why haven't all these students been expelled from their college ???

    QUESTION: Doesn't the 'N' word end in 'ER' not 'A' . Therefore what kind of education are these students receiving which allows for such atrocious spelling ???

    They should be expelled but it is after all the state Georgia and in the deep south the white kids are going to be given every benefit of the doubt.

    Regarding their spelling:

    They simply couldn’t get a sixth white student to join, so they chose the abbreviated five letter version

    I guess I'm glad then there weren't more than five who would agree to do something like this.

    Dr. Richey comes off as a bit preachy, but I know he desperately wants a better world, so there could be some passion involved. He has a point about investigating the system that let something like this slip, & implementing changes to remedy it. Hopefully the superintendent will at least make in some meaningful way the intention to do that known as well as address the specific incident.

    He has one of the fastest growing news shows on the internet.

    Preachy, somethings but as you mentioned that's brought about by caring and being passionate about certain subject matter.

    So young to be full of hate, I truly believe that if you take a little innocent child and fill them full of hate it should be classed as a form of child abuse.

    In 2022, I have to say racism and other forms of prejudice will never go away, no matter how much education and understanding most people will get in a culturally diverse society like the USA.

    Sad but true. Society can preach against prejudice, schools can teach against it, but the first education people receive is from their family and peers. And if they're taught to hate those of a different race, religion or heritage, it becomes ingrained.

    It is not so bad in the UK.
    Most of that hate is now gone.

    I thought so too in the US in the post Civil Rights days. But today it’s evident that Racism is very deep seated in the US. Every American should feel profound shame….and then do something about it. Voting for T—— is not part of the solution.

    They've found the woman that claimed Emmett whistled at her in Raleigh. She had some kind of open warrant on her, but surprisingly enough, it never got acted on.
