The football teams says they won't play again until the University President is fired. Another grad student is committed to a hunger strike. Kids today are mixed up. The message should be that words can't stop us from achieving our goals. Hopefully it doesn't backfire on them.
They are willing to give up football to protest racism. Of course racism stinks and it hurts people deeply, but what does firing the University President solve. He isn't a racist, isn't responsible for the incidents on campus and can't prevent any more from occurring. No matter how many rallies you hold some people will do and say things that offend you. As college students you should learn to fight ignorance with knowledge. Overpower them with strength of character and maturity.
