The Rwandan genocide was set off by talk radio. Hitler would have been nothing without his propaganda machine. Talk is a weapon and can cause conflict and misery as well. Yep, people are people and 'I'm holy and you're not' baloney cuts across all ethnicities, religions, geographies. Re black colleges. This is about an imbalance of power. White men still rule this country, head more than 95% of all Fortune 500 companies, occupy more seats in Congress and are the only people who have ever occupied the WH and many other powerful offices. When the weak band together in order to correct that balance of power, it is different than when the Bohemian Grovers (apparently this week they're collectively peeing on trees and hiring prostitutes--just a rumor) white men's club (mostly) gets together to conspire. It's not the same thing and I'm sure you can see that difference even if it unnerves you as a white male. They say that girls do better in school in single-sex classes because at a certain age they lose out to the testosterone of boys and begin to clam up. This is also when they lose their interest in math and science having been told by society that they should be interested in hair and makeup. That said, I don't think that any institution even if it is private should ban anyone because of the way they were born. Even so it happens every day of the week and good people should avoid joining said organizations in protest. Are there white males wishing to go to all black colleges and not being able to get in?
