An LSU Board of Supervisors committee approved a motion Friday that will remove Troy H. Middleton's name from the university's main library, an anticipated move that school leadership has said is aimed to remove racist symbols from campus.

And so now the majority of donations will come from people of color?


Since they obviously don’t want the money of us evil white devils since at some point in the past someone might have said something deemed racist by modern standards

What exactly was his thought crime? I’m sure it’s racist, but what are the particulars?

Thus, ends the systemic racism of the campus library.

I'm sure every black student had to weigh the costs of getting, in many cases, a cheaper education at the state's flagship university versus the name of a library caused many, many sleepless nights.

I mean, I’m not gonna lie. Out of the stuff being removed this is one I’m mildly okay with. Dude was pretty blatantly racist.

They should remove the racist library rules that make people of color be quiet and allow their voices to be heard and to talk on speakerphone

“Studying” is an oppressive tool of the white and yellow man to keep the black man down

My understanding is most of these frick-tards are Jon Bell Edwards appointees. Thanks to all you assholes who voted for that a-hole.
