Southern Discomfort
A history professor at Southern Illinois University is being hounded off-campus for distributing suggested reading matter that “alluded” to racist material and made two black teaching assistants uncomfortable, reports the Southern Illinoisan.
Along with the usual litany of material by Rosa Parks, MLK and Malcolm X, Professor Jonathan Bean added to the suggested reading list for his History 110: 20th Century America course an article from Frontpagemagazine.com about some 1970s-era murders perpetrated by black activists.
Bean edited out a passage that contained a link to the European American Issues Forum, whose leaders have pledged to ensure the individuals convicted in the so-called Zebra killings spend life in prison.
But the teaching assistants tracked down the original article, followed the link and then complained that Bean was distributing racist propaganda to his students.
The chair of Bean’s department is Marjorie Morgan, and the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts, which overseas the History department, is Shirley Clay Scott.
**end**
Man, there just ain't nothing you people up above the Manson-Nixon Line enjoy more than rewriting and editing history is there?
