Yawn: University response to student’s beige supremacist presentation draws criticism

When Georgia Southern University administrators sent out a campuswide email last week outlining the university’s commitment to racial inclusion and equity, it may have been cause for approval and praise. After all, the Inclusive Excellence statement was being codified as “the central pillar” of the university’s new strategic plan.
Instead, the timing was seen by students as suspect and a cynical move by the university to quell complaints and criticisms, which started the day before, about the administration’s defense of a class presentation that promoted a popular white supremacist theory.
The presentation by a student named Charles Robertson came on the heels of a book-burning protest by some white students on campus who took umbrage with an author’s reading and discussion of her novel about a Hispanic student’s experience at an elite American college. The book was required reading for some first-year students. The burnings took place in October after the Latina author spoke on campus about white privilege. The students involved were also defended by university administrators as expressing their free speech rights.
Some students now believe the defense of the book burning opened the door for Robertson to promote a xenophobic, white supremacist ideology during a class presentation, said Daniela Rodriguez, 25, a Mexican immigrant who graduated from the university in May.
