Quote:Here are the demands from the boycott.

 

<i>I. We demand that the University of Missouri System President, Tim Wolfe, writes a handwritten apology to the Concerned Student 1-­9-­5-0 demonstrators and holds a press conference in the Mizzou Student Center reading the letter. In the letter and at the press conference, Tim Wolfe must acknowledge his white male privilege, recognize that systems of oppression exist, and provide a verbal commitment to fulfilling Concerned Student 1-9-5-­0 demands. We want Tim Wolfe to admit to his gross negligence, allowing his driver to hit one of the demonstrators, consenting to the physical violence of bystanders, and lastly refusing to intervene when Columbia Police Department used excessive force with demonstrators. </i>

I demand that these folks get their own university, fund it, hire educators of their liking and do it like they want to do it. Try Go Fund Me and start there. No freebies. Dont like the facilty, move on. 

Boycott all year. Flunk out. Complain about no opportunities. The  clown merry go round keeps spinning.
