I find these situations quite sad really. of course the "dress up and come to a powwow" day wasn't a good idea. but...... part of the "problem" is ignorance of native culture and history, as was quoted in the article. how exactly will we teach culture and history to children if not for events like these? obviously dressing up is not a good look, but i dont see an issue with having a native group lead a pow wow or even just set up period correct camps. i grew up in a very native populated area, our school did events like these each year. it helped a lot, most kids tend to tune out in history class when reading about gruesome genocides and battles. actual native culture is more relate-able. BUT, as with any community, there are some that dont want culture to be shared. i think this situation overall was handled about right, but problems like this will invariably lead schools to just avoid the whole thing. and kids will go on thinking indians were nice on thanksgiving and savage scalpers the other 364 days in the year until they mysteriously vanished.

charlamagne the god bizarrely blames Trump for things like 'the war on drugs' as the reason why minorities shouldn't vote for him, despite any financial and employment gains they have made since the election

Yo I must've missed this news the first time around, but what the fuck?

Quote
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has reportedly arrested an additional 90 foreign students of a fake university in Michigan operated by the U.S. government.

The Detroit Free Press reported Wednesday that the 90 arrests in recent months bring the total number of students arrested for immigration violations through the fake college up to about 250.


Quote
The university was set up as part of a sting that attracted foreign students,mostly from India, and promoted itself as offering graduate education intechnology and computer studies, the newspaper reported, citing ICE officials.

The Detroit office of ICE's Homeland Security Investigations told the paper that about 80 percent of the arrested students voluntarily left the U.S., about 10 percent were ordered to leave, and about 10 percent have filed for relief or are fighting their removal orders.



Quote
Lawyers representing the students have argued the government unfairly trapped them because the Department of Homeland Security's website listed the university as legitimate.

According to the Free Press, lawyers representing ICE and the Justice Department have said the students should have known the college was not legitimate because it did not have courses in a physical place.



Are the economically anxious whiteys really so scared of the next generation of Indian Silicon Valley gods? :rofl:

I still don't understand why ICE is spending that much manpower and resources to arresting immigrants who legally came into the country.

NFL is honoring piece of shit Michael Vick.

Lets hope they mention the following honors:

Quote
In early 2004, two men were arrested in Virginia for distributing marijuana. The truck they were driving was registered to Vick. Falcons coach Dan Reeves said he lectured Vick at that time on the importance of reputation, on choosing the right friends, and on staying out of trouble for the good of his team.

In March 2005, Sonya Elliott filed a civil lawsuit against Vick alleging she contracted genital herpes from him in the autumn of 2002 and that he failed to inform her that he had the disease.[91] Elliot further alleged that Vick had visited clinics under the alias "Ron Mexico" to get treatments and thus knew of his condition. On April 24, 2006, Vick's attorney, Lawrence Woodward, revealed that the lawsuit had been settled out of court under undisclosed terms.[92] Many fans bought custom jerseys from NFL.com with Vick's #7 and the name "MEXICO" on the back. The NFL later banned customizing jerseys with the name Mexico.

After a loss to the New Orleans Saints on November 26, 2006 in the Georgia Dome, Vick made an obscene gesture at fans in an apparent reaction to booing, holding up both hands with the middle finger extended. He was fined $10,000 by the NFL and agreed to donate another $10,000 to charity.

...He further admitted that he knew his colleagues killed several dogs who did not perform well. He admitted to being involved in the destruction of 6–8 dogs, by hanging or drowning.


Has people selling drugs for him, drowning and strangling 'under-preforming' dogs, transmitting diseases to people, and basically saying fuck you to the fans.....

And Colin Kaepernick is the bad guy.

The NFL is fucking garbage.

That's how it works. Vick being a piece of shit doesn't affect the brand. But players getting political/socially conscious threatens $ because snowflake boomers are at least 20% of their viewership.

The best part about the Kaepernick fiasco is that it was a former green baret who suggested him to kneel.
