Student Mob Shrieks at Professor Who Objected to Event That Kicks White People Off Campus for a Day
By Lukas Mikelionis | 12:24 pm, May 25, 2017

 

Evergreen State College students have berated a professor and called for his resignation after he objected to an event where white students were asked to leave the campus for a day.
Bret Weinstein, a biology professor at the university, sent out an email criticizing the purpose of this year’s “Day Of Absence” event where, unlike in the past, white students and faculty members were asked to leave campus to give space to people of color.
Traditionally, the annual event is characterized by people of color leaving the campus to show their contribution to the campus, while white students and faculty members are attending anti-racism workshops.
“There is a huge difference between a group or coalition deciding to voluntarily absent themselves from a shared space in order to highlight their vital and under appreciated roles … and a group or coalition encouraging another group to go away,” Weinstein wrote in the email.
“I would encourage others to put phenotype aside and reject this new formulation … On a college campus, one’s right to speak—or to be—must never be based on skin color.”
[...]
A student shouted at Weinstein: “We don’t care what terms you want to speak on. This is not about you. We are not speaking on terms—on terms of white privilege. This is not a discussion. You have lost that one.”

When walking past a doomsday preacher on the street, it's best to just ignore and keep walking. These types of people (typically Sjw's/Antifa/anti-trump types) generally don't communicate very well and only interested in preaching from a position of ignorance.

Yea, complete and utter ###### and racist.   Hope all those college students supporting/asking for this get expelled or punished.

Why the hell would white people need to attend anti racism workshops?  Seriously, this is ######ed up.  Not all people are racist and this clumps them into the same bunch who are.  This event should not be allowed.

I dont even know what to say or think about this.  This is the most ridiculous thing I have heard - at every level.

Blacks complain about equality, now - they want separation ?  So which is it ?  

When someone speaks about free speech and personal rights, they are told to "shut up" ?  Sounds about par for the SJW - because, after all, its all about their views are the only ones which need to be heard.

Im sure the MTV, and Yahoo, and sorts will be  applauding this "school" - 


I was about to start a thread about the WOMEN ONLY viewing of Wonder Woman in Austin - but this is so much worse.

I got to :45  - couldnt take it anymore.  Some below-avg achieving white kid said, "you said some racist sh*t, can you apologize?" - 

Think about that - they are saying the teacher is the one who is being racist, by asking the group to reconsider their event of segregation.... let that sink in.

And this folks, is where and how these SJW are born.   Avg to Below average intellect, average to below average achievement (but rec'd tons of participation trophies Im sure) - they choose a bunch of Humanities, and poly Sci 101 classes - and voila!   They got it all figured out

If these kids were @ real schools, they wouldnt have the time or energy to mess with this crap.

Dont see the chinese kids who study 18 hours a day @ CalTech pulling this crap, do you ?  Too busy with Applied Mathematics, QED, & power towers to mess with this crap.

 

Here is another:

Any readers who don't already appreciate these students’ complete lack of self-awareness, a quick reddit search uncovered this little gem:  

A promotional video for a “weekly community gathering” at Evergreen called Common Bread.

 

This is not a Portlandia Sketch. This is real life.

“I have been told by the Chief of Police it’s not safe for me to be on campus,” said Weinstein, who held his Thursday class in a downtown Olympia park, King 5 reports, adding an “administrator confirmed the police department advised Weinstein it ‘might be best to stay off campus for a day or so.'”

Making matters worse, social justice warriors are targeting students who support Weinstein, threatening to dox those who helped him film the raucous protesters as they cornered him in the campus hallway and yelled at him and called him names.

You shouldn't lump those groups together. Many completely rational people don't support this kind of behaviour but see the obvious issues present in the current administration. You'd have to be incredibly ignorant to miss them.

I agree, was only speaking generalness. 

I'd suggest stupidity knows no specific group or ideology, and that we should be all advocating for complexity. The solutions to our problems lies in understanding that they're incredibly complicated, and we must come together in trying to understand them at all. The Dunning Kruger effect is powerful and dangerous. We all benefit when we stop pretending we know what we're talking about.

Protesters at Evergreen State College are reportedly roaming campus with baseball bats, according to photos and videos circulating on social media.

I can't really argue with their request. It sounds stupid and completely racist until you read about what the event is normally like:

The whole idea should be scrapped instead. I'd be quite angry if someone forced me to attend an anti-racism workshop when I have done nothing to merit such a decision.

The phrase 'fighting fire with fire' comes to my mind...it doesn't work!

The very concept itself is completely racist

Holy crap, I don't even know where to begin... there are so many idiots in that room who spew absolute ###### and don't seem to see their own hypocrisy, acting as if the world owes them anything they ask for, self-righteous "justice" seeking morons, to say the least.

 

Noting down union members who refuse and acting upon their refusal, would that not be against employment laws in the US?

 

And acting as if being emotional and getting up in someone else's face is going to help your cause, because that doesn't seem threatening and coercive at all, does it? :p

 

There's way too much to comment on in that video, would have to watch it a few times as I just can't believe what I'm hearing every time I watch it over.

 

This is the supported future of the Western world? We're all doomed!

    • First exciting thing to come to Windows in a long time ! This is the kind of things they should focus on, instead of cramming as much AI as they can in everything.
    • New AMD graphics driver fixes install issues and FSR 4.1 crashes on RX 7000 GPUs by Taras Buria AMD is rolling out yet another graphics driver. Version 26.6.4 is now available for download, bringing two important fixes. One is for those still using Windows 10 and having trouble installing driver 26.6.2. In fact, this patch is coming from the recently released hotfix, so it is not new if you are already running version 26.6.3. The second fix is for RX 7000 owners. AMD recently brought FSR 4.1 support to the previous-gen graphics cards, but there was a bug with certain games crashing when using FSR 4.1. I experienced this issue with Forza Horizon 6, so today's driver should take care of that. Here is the official changelog: Intermittent install issue seen when installing AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 on Windows® 10 systems for Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Intermittent application crash may be observed in some games with AMD FSR Upscaling 4.1 enabled on Radeon™ RX 7000 series graphics products. Known issues include the following: Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while playing Battlefield™ 6 on AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. AMD is actively working on a resolution with the developer to be released as soon as possible. Texture flickering or corruption may appear while playing Battlefield™ 6 with AMD Record and Stream on some AMD graphics products. AMD FSR Upscaling and AMD FSR Frame Generation may show as inactive in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition while playing Battlefield™ 6 when enabled on Radeon™ RX 9000 series graphics products. Failure to install may be observed while installing AI Bundle components in some regions with limited access to HuggingFace and GitHub. Model flickering or rendering failure may be observed in Maxon Cinema 4D and Blender on Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. Intermittent application crash may be observed on some models while running Blender on Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. You can download the AMD Radeon driver 26.6.4 from the official website here. Full release notes are available on the same page.
    • Amazon may use OpenAI and Nova models after Anthropic reportedly raises costs by Karthik Mudaliar Amazon is reportedly considering to use OpenAI models and even its own Nova family of AI models after Anthropic raised the cost of using Claude inside Amazon services. According to a report from The Information, Amazon is weighing its options to reduce costs under a new arrangement with Anthropic. But back in April, Amazon said it would invest $5 billion more in Anthropic, with the possibility of adding up to another $20 billion if certain commercial milestones are met. That investment actually came on top of another $8 billion Amazon had already put into the Claude maker. Anthropic, meanwhile, committed to spend more than $100 billion over 10 years on AWS technologies, including Amazon’s Trainium chips. Amazon isn't just a customer of Anthropic but also one of the most important backers and cloud partners. This is why it makes it interesting that Amazon is considering other alternatives to handle its internal workloads. Although Amazon has been building its own options for a while now. Its Nova family of AI models was announced in late 2024 for Amazon Bedrock, with models aimed at text, image, and video tasks. Amazon pitched the model around cost and latency at that time. With that said, OpenAI has also become a more realistic option recently for AWS customers as well as for Amazon itself. Earlier this year, OpenAI brought its latest models and Codex coding agent to Amazon Bedrock, after changes to its previously more restrictive Microsoft cloud arrangement. This allowed AWS to serve even those customers who wanted other alternatives from Claude, without having to move workloads out of Amazon's cloud. Evaluating alternatives could also be due to commercial pressure and not necessarily a sign of a damaged partnership between Amazon and Anthropic. Whether or not Amazon is actually considering switching entirely to OpenAI's models or its own Nova models remains unknown at this moment.
    • Samsung introduces new AI classroom tools and interactive displays at ISTELive 2026 by Fiza Ali Samsung has announced several new education-focused software features and interactive displays for schools during ISTELive 2026, taking place in Orlando, Florida, from 28 June to 1 July. The focus of these updates is on making shared classroom displays easier to use for teachers while giving IT administrators more control over managing devices. One of the key additions is the Samsung Account Management Solution (AMS). In many schools, multiple teachers share the same interactive display throughout the day, which means signing in and setting everything up can become repetitive. With AMS, teachers can log in by scanning a QR code or tapping an NFC-enabled ID card. Once signed in, their personalised workspace, including wallpapers, bookmarks, app shortcuts, and files, can be instantly accessed through Home Personalisation. Samsung has also included a screen lock feature, allowing teachers to lock the display if they need to step away briefly. Furthermore, the company is also updating its Education Portal with new tools designed for school IT administrators. The portal will allow IT administrators to register teachers, enrol devices, and manage user access from a central dashboard. Administrators can also link NFC cards to teacher accounts, making sign-ins quicker across shared displays. Another addition is a Tags feature that lets schools organise displays by building or classroom. Those tags can also be used to send emergency notifications to selected Samsung Interactive Displays through compatible platforms such as InformaCast and Raptor. Moreover, the tech giant's AI Assistant is gaining several new features aimed at supporting everyday classroom tasks such as lesson planning and classroom engagement. One of the features is Circle to Search, which lets teachers circle text or images on the display to quickly find related information, videos, or web results without interrupting the lesson. The content can then be brought into Samsung Whiteboard. Another feature, Live Transcript, converts spoken lessons into real-time captions, which could be useful for students with hearing impairments or those in multilingual classrooms. The AI Assistant also introduces AI Summary and AI Quiz. The summary tool creates summaries of recorded lessons, while AI Quiz generates questions based on lesson content so teachers can quickly check how well students are following along. Teachers signed in through Samsung AMS can also return to their previous AI-generated lesson materials without logging in again. Alongside the software updates, Samsung has expanded its Android-based Interactive Display range with three new models: the WAF-S, WAFX-PS, and WAHX-M. The WAF-S and WAFX-PS ship with Android 16, bringing updates to security, accessibility, and overall usability while maintaining compatibility with Google's education services including Google Classroom and Google Drive through EDLA certification. Meanwhile, the new WAHX-M is the biggest addition to the lineup, introducing a 98-inch display for larger spaces such as lecture halls and conference rooms. It will also be available in 65-inch, 75-inch and 86-inch sizes. Samsung says the WAHX-M further includes on-device AI features such as voice commands, text-to-speech, and an AI calculator, alongside support for Samsung AMS and AI Assistant. Samsung AI Assistant has been available since April, while Samsung AMS and the updated Education Portal will begin rolling out in July.
    • It's been $24 (single) or $89 (4-pack) for many days on both Amazon and Walmart as far as I know. That isn't a big discount. If these end up like the 1st gen, the 4-pack will routinely get down around $80, give or take a dollar. I think they have even hit $69 at times.
