Here are some Black Lives Matter voices crying out at Dartmouth College. Please watch these BLM students at this prestigious Ivy League school express their racial frustrations into the Yik Yak camera while reading reactionary posts of their fellow students ... see: Joe Asch's Dartblog Entry ... and see if you can generalize the gripes that these students are expressing. To me, it doesn't seem to be that black lives are being snuffed out by over-zealous police officers which I thought was the impetus of this BLM movement, but rather that white and Asian fellow students were making them "feel" uncomfortable. I'm not sure how this grievance is going to be remedied to the satisfaction of these "disenfranchised" students ... many of whom still proudly wear their school's name across their chests. A bit of a paradox, no?
I am rather disappointed that my previous thoughts on this BLM movement at Dartmouth were not included in this collective Yik Yak rant ... see: Student Racism.
