So, racism isn't as bad as BLACKS say, huh?
On Nov. 15, 15 members of the Beta Theta Pi and Delta Sigma Phi fraternities on the campus of Auburn University in Alabama were suspended and their fraternities disbanded for wearing racially offensive attire to a fraternity Halloween party.

Some members were in "black face" while others dressed in KKK attire with white hoods and pointed hats. Some wore afro wigs and shirts with the Greek insignia of a black fraternity on them. Numerous photos showed one particular member in black face with a noose around his neck wearing a T-Shirt with the word FUBU on it as he stood in front of the Confederate Flag.

A character witness for Tommy Curry
I read The Daily Egyptian webpage and saw some people's opinions of my very best friend Tommy Curry, and I'm seeing that quite a few readers seem to have the wrong idea about him.

From Editorial dept. on 12/7/01; 10:51:36 AM

No more turning away
It's the title of a song recorded by Pink Floyd. The idea of the song is that too many of us stand idly by while the world falls further into vice. We assuage our guilt by placing the responsibility on others.

The truth of the matter is we all, and when I say all I mean red, yellow, black, white, orange, middle to upper class, benefit from the blood of others spilled in the name of manifest destiny.

I don't need to recount the history of it all because I'm sure by now you've all heard about what was done to people in the name of America.

If not for the land of the Natives or the Mexicans and the slave labor of the Chinese and Africans, we would not be the super power we are today.

Domestic violence an unspoken problem
Domestic violence in the United States is well documented. The prevalence of domestic violence has been studied, analyzed and researched extensively in the last 10 years. However, domestic violence among immigrants and international students is not as highly discussed.

A seminar conducted last Friday by SIUC's international community was intended to bring this very issue out of the shadows an into public discourse. Domestic violence among immigrants is often a sensitive subject. American immigration laws and certain cultural barriers make speaking out a perilous endeavor.
