The Post-Racial Northwestern

A Post Racial Northwestern Doesn't Exist; The Status Quo Must Be Challenged and it starts with you there

Black Male kicked out of crowded gym at SPAC for being “too loud”

[[A friend of mine, a black [man], was training some of my friends. Basically he was told that he had to stop because people were complaining because he was too loud… It’s a gym not the library! But before that he was asked to give the man his wildcard and the man went and checked it. If it had been a white person I KNOW that wouldn’t have happened.

…it was at the track. I didn’t know there was a sound policy. OR you were subjected to being asked who you were when he obviously is a student who got in there with a valid wildcard. I’m tired of it.]] — A student reporting the incident in a public forum online.

The student was asked to leave and had his WildCard checked to see if he was a real student even though they swipe your valid WildCard before you can go into SPAC. The spaces at Northwestern are regulated in a very colonial way.
