Subject: Re: Segregated housing at UD Author: Matt Munn [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 22:51:33 05/01/02 Wed In reply to: Latoya Griffith 's message, "Segregated housing at UD" on 22:41:42 05/01/02 Wed I don't think we should try to end it. Its just a reflection of what history has done to our cultures. It has torn them so far apart that, even today, we still don't have the same social interests (for the most part). When we(everyone,white & black) finally heal from America's shitty past, I think there will be one culture, more diversity, and stuff like that. Then, and only then, will my black ass move to east campus! >;-) peace [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: Re: Segregated housing at UD Author: Jennifer Durham [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 23:26:25 05/01/02 Wed I think it is just the fact that we have been socialized so much that everybody now conforms to the rolls that society tells us to. In my opinion, whites, blacks, latinos, and everyone else leave change to the next person and are afraid to make real steps. If you want to integrate campus u have to integrate the world. UD does not represent society accurately in regards to proportions of minorities, but it does reflect similar mainly white campuses. It is going to take everyone to befriend opposite races to make UD's campus integrated. And the sad thing is when some do integrate, they are said to be denying their race. If a black man lives on South Campus, people assume he "acts" white or dates white girls. People sterotype people and a lot of the time just plan out hate on people. So i believe if u want a difference then u move to one part of campus with few black fold ei. south and u make the difference yourself and encourage others to also. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
