"The African-American man who claims he was the one who started the tradition of the now infamous Martin Luther King “celebration” among Tarleton State University students now admits that this year’s party bears virtually no resemblance to the one he and two of his roommates hosted three years ago.

“OK, well, I admit that this party was a little different than mine,” Williams said. “But I still don’t think it was racist.”

Williams also steadfastly defended his good friend and former roommate, Jeremy Pelz, who posted pictures of the party on his Facebook Web site. Despite the fact that many of the pictures showed white students poking fun at black culture and history, Williams insisted that those students who attended the party are not racist and meant no disrespect to the black community or to Martin Luther King."

“I know for sure that they (the party-goers) weren’t being racist,” Williams said. “They were just having fun.”
