"Dreadlocked, body-pierced granola-crunchers" demand "anti-oppression training"
Jules CrittendenThis is entirely charming. The dreadlocked, body-pierced granola-crunchers with sprouts stuck between their teeth at Hampshire College want anti-oppression training for all staff. The article sadly doesnt detail the nature of the administrations failure to be insufficiently committed to fighting racism. Its hard to imagine, if you know anything about Hampshire College. But whats fascinating is that while the alternativistas earnestly claim they want to boost diversity at their 1,350-student ultra-liberal arts college in western Massachusetts Happy Valley, one of their demands is for residence halls exclusively for students of color and for queer-identified students. That doesnt sound very diverse. Sounds kind of oppressive. Posted by: Mike 2008-04-01 |
