MLK Party at Tarleton State

[UGAalum94]

Well, I think the point of posting the article may have been to suggest that the party was perhaps not a complete and accurate reflection of the hosts' racial attitudes. Someone who actually knows the hosts doesn't think they're racists, for what's its worth.

ETA: I honestly think that some people think so little about race that they don't anticipate how bad something can look. They don't reflect on the fact that dressing up like some cross-racial stereotyped or mixed-up stereotypes will look some much worse than same race or class stereotype. Now, before anyone wants to lecture me on how unfunny any of it its, consider the nature of most comedy shows, and get back to me. SNL, MAD-TV, Chapelle, Mind of Mencia all rely on stereotype for "humor." You and I may think it's dumb, but it's popular outside of Tarleton State. Rather than being a reflection of these students' deeply held racial views, it may have been just a very ill-advised theme.
