I have asked several of these questions myself

This is it. Boone County has not had a good relationship with the University for a long long time. I have no idea what started it or when.

Onion Horton and Charlie "tuna" Edwards, 2 black radio personalities, for years have told black student athletes and students to stay away from Missouri. They have damn near done seminars about it for the local coaches.

The answer to fix this is not as much on campus as it is sitting down and finding out why the locals hate all those rich students with privilege.

Racist people are not broken people they are people who have only been taught one thing.

One of my best friends growing up in grade school and high school was a huge racist. Went into the Air Force did his tour came home. He was totally a changed person about black people. I asked him what happen to change that. He said he got to know them while in the Air Force. He always was taught they were horrible. We went to a grade school in South St. Louis that had only 6 black students by time of being in 8th grade and he went to St. John's the Baptist High School. There might have been 10 black students in that small school.

Racism is taught. Your not born with it and you are not a broken person if you are one. You were taught it.

Very few change. My friend shocked the hell out of me when he changed.
