Georgetown Students Host Community Dialogue on Racism, Ask White Allies Not to Attend

Student-activists at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., recently hosted a community dialogue on racism. White students—even those who consider themselves "allies" to the cause—were asked not to attend, out of concern their mere presence would make students of color feel unsafe.

GeorgetownThe event was hosted by Georgetown United Against Police Aggression, which is currently pushing back against conservative students' efforts to convince the administration to arm its police, who are real commissioned officers, even though Georgetown is a private school. The activists say armed officers would pose an increased risk for students of color, who have a disproportionate number of interactions with police.

"All of us know someone who has been targeted," the organizers of the event wrote on Facebook. "Let's do something about it." This message also said that "for the safety of students of color, allies are not welcome to attend this preliminary dialogue."

This is beyond ridiculous to even HOLD such a "community dialogue".  This is worse than inviting your family to dinner and refusing to serve anyone over the age of 12!!!  To me this smacks of downright COMMUNISM...to pander to the black students "who don't feel safe around whites".  More like the whites don't feel safe around the blacks!!!!  Since WHEN do whites attack people of color for no reason?  I can think of many incidents where whites are attacked by people of color every day and some end up dead.....!!!
