Racist Memes

12/8/2017

0 Comments

 
This semester, a 5C student started a secret meme group on Facebook. The group was discovered to be sharing memes with explicitly racist, misogynistic, Islamophobic, and anti-Semitic content. When the page was reported to the administration, college officials denounced the content shared, but ultimately classified the group and its content as protected under free speech. The student code states that speech that is “abusive and insulting rather than a communication of ideas” is considered harassment and will not be permitted on campus. It baffles me that the college doesn’t consider racism abusive. ​
