Segregation is back, back again: UC Berkeley’s Person of Color Theme House has reportedly banned white guests from common spaces “to be able to avoid white violence and presence.” “When students bring a guest, the rules tell them to announce it in the house guest chat and note ‘if they are white.’”

That's fine, as long as they allow the same benefits for white only dorms.

They are co-ops, not dorms. And whiteys flock to co-ops like flies to shit, so such a classification is unnecessary.

To be honest, having been in co-ops for a while, this is mostly about people's racist relatives coming over, as most people in the co-ops are genuinely good and open-minded.

Whites don't have racially segregated co-ops.

this is mostly about people's racist relatives coming over

The black people's racist relatives?

Some white folx do get placed in PoC spaces. I suppose if that didn't happen then these rules wouldn't be necessary.

Rules wouldn't be necessary? So keeping people out based on their race is necessary? Segregated housing is necessary? That's racist as fuck.

The most important bit is letting people know about guests. If anything they are making a big mistake here by allowing any guests ay all, what with covid going around.

Yet another deliberate troll account.

I was on the grounds of uc Berkeley about fifteen years ago.. in the cafeteria, only Asian people.. they pretty much took over uc Berkeley.

Are you sure they were not jews?

Whenever white people build anything good everyone flocks to it to eat the cake they did not bake. That is why it is necessary. When leaches eat the fruits of your labor you learn to not produce. Everything turns to shit when the leaches are treated better than the producers.

Any your opinion on how necessary it is for other people to get the same treatment as you means fuck all. Obviously you feel that you deserve special treatment, that's irrelevant.

Co-ops are interesting. They really started in the 70's after everyone had detoxxed from the summer of love, and were at a peak a couple decades ago. But times they are a changin', I mean, even People's Park is on the brink.

Liberal wordplay is interesting. They are always trying to make untrue and illogical claims by using definitions that don't apply.

Calling this a co-op is a perfect example.

It is. And as long as Robert's Rules of Order are followed during meetings, they can do pretty much whatever they want to secure and protect their house, even if it violates some obscure code.

I'm positive there is a record of the house meeting where this decision was made, I'm sure you can conduct an audit if you're so motivated.

It is blatantly racist and should be treated exactly the same as if a group of white students did the same thing. Namely: Berkley should publicly denounce the establishment, cut all ties to it, and expel all participants.

Unfortunately I don't have the power to do anything about it. But what I can do is keep pointing out how those in power are clearly racist towards white people. And this proves that the narrative around racism (that it is the reason for minority failures) is completely wrong. Despite all the racism against white people they still outperform minorities.
