The KKK and Black Lives Matter are both racial identity movements and if there is such a moral sin as racism, then they are both racist. This seems like an ordinary observation to me, but making ordinary observations about reality get you in trouble in America today.<\/p>\n
The University of Virginia is the enemy.<\/p>\n
Washington Post<\/a>:<\/p>\n \nA college professor found himself in hot water after likening the Black Lives Matter movement to the racism of the Klu Klux Klan.<\/p>\n Douglas Muir, an adjunct professor for the University of Virginia, wrote in a Facebook comment that Black Lives Matter is the \u201cbiggest\u201d racist organization since the KKK. The comment was written last week in response to a Facebook post about a Black Lives Matter event in Charlottesville.<\/p>\n University officials later issued statements denouncing the comments and distancing themselves from Muir. The professor has since taken leave, according to the university…<\/p>\n Tom Katsouleas, University of Virginia\u2019s executive vice president and provost, said in a statement on Friday that he\u2019s \u201cdisturbed and saddened\u201d by Muir\u2019s comments.<\/p>\n \u201cThe University of Virginia stands firmly against racism and social injustice of any kind,\u201d Katsouleas said. \u201cStatements such as Mr. Muir\u2019s do not foster intellectual exploration, nor do they encourage the voices of others.\u201d<\/p>\n In a statement issued on the same day, officials from the university\u2019s School of Engineering and Applied Science said Muir\u2019s \u201centirely inappropriate\u201d comments raised concerns about the school\u2019s commitment to diversity and inclusion.<\/p>\n The university\u2019s Darden School of Business also released a statement saying Muir\u2019s comments don\u2019t represent the school\u2019s viewpoint or values.<\/p>\n Muir is an adjunct lecturer at both the engineering and business schools.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The KKK and Black Lives Matter are both racial identity movements and if there is such a moral sin as racism, then they are both racist.
