All this article is saying is that UM's African American student org wants some.office space.
It's completely normal, it's no.different than the cooking club requesting a kitchen be made for them on campus or the ability to use campus facilities for their purposes.

Why do we even celebrate MLK Day? Is clear it does nothing to remind us what he stood for and what we're fighting for, if it did nothing like this would even be worth consideration.

It says office space SPECIFICALLY FOR POCs.

I noticed you left the racial discrimination part of of your description here. A cooking club just for white people? You think that would be normal?

Not only martin king but their parents and grandparents fought to stop segregation and now their kids are fighting to bring it back.
This is like some kind of psyops where they have the blacks demanding to be segregated. strange times we live in.

Well, Ive read through the comments and honestly I dont see what the big deal is. It isnt anti-white, its just a demand for a dedicated space for POCs to plan SJW strategies. Obviously SJW issues are for the most part something of interest primarily for POCs. Why shouldnt they have a dedicated space for projects of particular importance to them?
I say let them have their space.. The white kids dont care, they arent interested, for the most part, in the SJW crap anyway.
