Black oppression at Sarasota’s FSU Asolo Repertory Theatre for Actor Training?

[Media]

Five Black students are accusing leaders of the FSU Asolo Repertory Theatre for Actor Training of neglecting Black playwrights, Black authors, Black directors, Black faculty, Black training and Black curriculum. The Black students wrote in a letter:

• “You are not standing against racism — your institution exemplifies the definition of institutional racism. You cannot claim that racism has no place in your institutions when you systematically refuse to represent Black voices. We stand in solidarity with those committed to fighting oppression, racism and hate.”

Director Greg Leaming was particularly singled out for…

Five Black students are accusing [an entire institution of systemic racism]...

1. Five Black students are a vocal minority that do not represent the silent majority of people.
   .
2. This is a propaganda smear campaign against the vast majority of students, professors, taxpayers and citizens of Florida.
   .
3. For the last three days, those five students have been provided with an online front page in Sarasota's MSM H-T.

FACTOID: The very vocal minority does not represent the silent majority of people. This manipulative charade is classic MSM propaganda.

This is what the Democratic Party fears the most: https://scontent-mia3-1.xx.fbcdn.net...b2&oe=5F072E21

The article says that blacks are being "oppressed" at the FSU training school. Oppressed? Seriously?

There is no Jim Crow oppression at FSU Aslo. The racist allegation is based on what five (5) black students wrote in one (1) letter that got front page press in the Sarasota Herald-Tribune newspaper. When five (5) students make demands that are based on race, that is racism. Box office criteria should be based on popularity and creativity that can be measured in simple ways:

• What will students pay to enroll in?
• What will customers pay to see at the box office?
• What will sponsors pay to endorse, support and fun?
• It should not be based on the color of skin. Blacks comprise 8% of the student population at FSU. Does that mean that 8% of the students who receive A grades should be black? How do you measure racial expectations for racists?

Whatever happened to judging a person by his or her skill -- or the content of his or her character? The 1964 Civil Rights Act prohibits students from illegally enforcing demands that are based on race.

Five Black students in Sarasota wrote a letter to the FSU Asolo Repertory Theatre for Actor Training:

• "Your institution [FSU] exemplifies institutional racism. You cannot claim that racism has no place in your institutions when you systematically refuse to represent Black voices. We stand in solidarity with those committed to fighting oppression, racism and hate."

The strange communist-instigated drama is not just happening at FSU, but it's also happening elsewhere in the United States, such as:

• UF will no longer use “Gator Bait” cheer at sporting events because it is allegedly racist:

  .
• Minnesota mayor calls to remove "chief" from job titles because it is allegedly racist:

The U.S. is the most free place on the planet, but these strange communist-instigated accusations are presented by the MSM as if they are systemic national issues. For example, look at the poster who created the thread about alleged systemic racism in SPD. Find the link yourself if you haven't seen it.

These are communist-backed instigators who are looking to destabilize society to usher in a revolution to abolish the Constitution -- and to replace it with Marxism. In Portland, a statute of George Washington was draped with a burning American flag and was then torn down.

This is a communist-backed insurrection that is being funded. Federal law enforcement has been tracking the funding sources for over three years.

All of the following are being changed, due to false allegations of racism:

*Uncle Ben's Rice
*Aunt Jemima Pancake Mix

I’ve received feedback since writing my column about a letter about racism at FSU’s Asolo Conservatory actor training program. The feedback prompted Asolo [representatives] to issue its fatally-flawed message of solidarity, after the death of George Floyd. Asolo [representatives also] said that nothing more could be said until [they] meet with the [five black] students [who are accusing FSU of institutional racism]. [However], the students said they would have nothing more to say until….

Reactions to charges of Asolo racism tells me about you.

Woman, you do not speak for "us." You speak for yourself alone. You do not have the authority to speak for "us," unless you are an elected representative, which you are not.

[Woke]

"Journalism can never be silent: that is its greatest virtue and its greatest fault. It must speak, and speak immediately, while the echoes of wonder, the claims of triumph and the signs of horror are still in the air."

This quote is so demonstrative of the pseudo-intellectualism and aloofness of our media.

"Can never be silent" Oh , but you are doing such a good job of being silent about the exploding murder rates in many cities. A three year-old is murdered in Chicago, but the eulogizing convicted violent thugs is so much important. Liberals have no answer for their years of total failure in public safety which has cost thousands of people their lives.
