Slurs, blackface, and gorilla masks: The academic year opened with racial ugliness


A former Kansas State University student shared a photo of herself and a friend with their faces painted black, and a racial slur. Students at the University of Michigan found posters on campus warning white women not to date black men. They just wanted to make the point that black lives are lives too, Grimes said. “We do love all lives — white lives, black lives, brown lives, yellow lives,” Grimes said. That being said, despite what many may feel was objectionable behavior, Mr. Rettke has the same Free Speech protections as those in the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement,” Denton said in the statement.
