Cal State LA Offers “Safe Space Housing” For Black Students…
All that is left is separate water fountains.
Quote:California State University Los Angeles recently rolled out segregated housing for black students.
The arrangement comes roughly nine months after the university’s Black Student Union issued a set of demands in response to what its members contend are frequent “racist attacks” on campus, such as “racially insensitive remarks” and “microaggressions” by professors and students. One demand was for a “CSLA housing space delegated for Black students.”
“[It] would provide a cheaper alternative housing solution for Black students. This space would also serve as a safe space for Black CSLA students to congregate, connect, and learn from each other,” the demand letter stated.
The newly debuted Halisi Scholars Black Living-Learning Community “focuses on academic excellence and learning experiences that are inclusive and non-discriminatory,” Cal State LA spokesman Robert Lopez told The College Fix via email.
The public university has 192 furnished apartments in a residential complex on campus, and the Halisi community will be located there, Lopez said, adding it joins other themed living-learning communities already housed there.
Lopez declined to answer any additional questions or provide more details on the new community, such as how many rooms it encompasses, and whether it’s a whole floor or just a few rooms.

I guess it's a testament to racial progress than radical black college kids get to be self-aggrandizing, political naive and ultimately ineffective in the same ways as radical white college kids.

It's fine by me.
The end result will not be what they were hoping for.
It's actually rather depressing for the people pushing this kind of thing. If they think that these places are going to evolve into sanctuaries of black intellectual growth and discussion they are mistaken.

Considering the amount of black on black crime in this country doesn't this accomplish the opposite of creating a "safe space"?
