re: SEC says MS must change flag or face consequences

If enough viewers boycott, it would actually hurt, considering the stadiums will not be at full capacity if college football even happens this year.

If it comes up for a vote again, it'll be changed. Last vote was nearly 20 years ago. But, it'll get blocked, probably, from being voted on again.

Time to do it again to leverage the type of change he obviously feels so strongly about.

What about Georgia's flag? I don't have anything against Georgia but why single out Mississippi?

Does he think he's the commissioner for the Pac12 or something?

Get your politics the frick out of here.

Why not just take each one on a case by case basis?

Cause they have already shown they aren't willing to do that. Jefferson and Washington monuments both toppled in Portland this week. This is not about slavery, etc. It is a vicious anti White crusade designed to humiliate and erase White heritage.

Just wow at this revisionist history and defense of racist segregationist laws.

Jim Crow laws were made to suppress the rights of black people. The "manage the interactions" angle you've made up in your head is complete and utter false nonsense.
The people who supported Jim Crow laws did so because they bought into the toxic racist mentality.

The revisionism is the history YOU have been taught. The North and the South were able to reconcile, partially because the North did not forbid the South from honoring its fallen. This wave of monument toppling will not unify and you know it. When people wake up and realize their heritage has been demonized, that the woke masses want them dead, then things could get ugly.

Please tell us dear egalitarian, why does GA Tech graduate such a small percentage of African Americans? LINK / Is it due to racism? When do you think GA Tech will start enrolling and graduating as many Black students as Bama and Ole Miss and State do? When will GA Tech be redeemed?

First of all, GT is an Institute of Technology and has VERY FEW ACADEMIC MAJORS in comparison to a traditional UNIVERSITY (from the root word Universal, meaning accompanying many Academic specialities), so while GT has maybe 50 "different" undergrad Majors the schools you use for comparison have maybe 150 undergrad Majors

For example a lot of Blacks go into Education because their parents were Teachers, GT has no education majors or College of Education, Black Females are well represented in Nursing, GT has no College of Nursing and there are other examples

GT has recently added a major Lit, Media and Communications, so maybe more women and a more diverse student body in General will arise

Based on the Academic Magazines, GT does a pretty good job of graduating Blacks in various STEM Majors, but we can do better and we are trying get better and be more inclusive

For example, GT built this years before Floyd was murdered, and before Conference Commissioners had to help force SEC schools to not promote Racist symbology:
Rosa Parks Sculpture at GT, no controversy we do the right thing because it is right

Video
Dedication of Sculpture

Think any of your favorite SEC Schools would build a monument to a Civil Rights Icon that has no connection to the school?
