Cal Berkeley Protesters Form Human Chain To Stop White Kids From Getting To Class

Washington Times – Students at the University of California, Berkeley held a day of protest on Friday to demand the creation of additional “safe spaces” for transgender and nonwhite students, during which a human chain was formed on a main campus artery to prevent white students from getting to class.

The demonstrators were caught on video blocking Berkeley’s Sather Gate, holding large banners advocating the creation of physical spaces segregated by race and gender identity, including one that read “Fight 4 Spaces of Color.”

Protesters can be heard shouting “Go around!” to white students who attempt to go through the blockade, while students of color are greeted with calls of “Let him through!”

The group later occupies the school store, chanting “Students Over Profits!” They place an “eviction notice” on the store, which claims the university “wrongly allocated this two-story facility to third-party corporations, keeping in line with its intensifying legacy of prioritizing financial profit over student needs.”

I’d fucking love this if I was at Berkeley. Making it literally impossible to get to class and giving me a bulletproof excuse to miss and go back to my room and drink and watch TV and play video games? NOOOOO! NOT THAT!! Thanks protesters. Best White Privilege ever.

Fuck is this guy when you need him?

PS,

That school store eviction is fucking hilarious. What a random throw-in to the protest. Safe Spaces for minorities…and the bookstore selling overpriced grey t-shirts. Not a protest expert but feel like you need to focus the message better, maybe pick one at a time and protest them separately.
