It is right to reveal the racism in our clooege and our society but we should do it in a proper way. I think a better way to adress the problem maybe is not to show people how racism our society is (although it is true), but to hold events that could nicely reflect diversity and the spirit of equality and tolerance.

In this specific situation the school addressed the fraternities wrong doing, unfortunately I don’t think this is always the case. There are incidents at schools and on campuses where this kind of behavior is ignored or unaddressed and if it is addressed there aren’t that many consequences. I think the people who were apart of the fraternity and took part in the degrading of individual groups will not stop having these beliefs and attitudes, which is very unfortunate but the reality of the situation. The expelling of the fraternity was the right step to take but I don’t believe everything will be solved from this expulsion. This also makes me think about other groups on college campuses and schools who continue to do the same behavior and continues to be unaddressed.

If you’re looking for racism, you don’t need to search very hard. It seems that the distribution of the skit would be detrimental to students on campus as well as exploitative. The students that were involved in the skit will hopefully learn from the discomfort they are going through, I doubt other students would learn much besides racial jargon from the video described.
