They said if Donald Trump won the election, we’d return to the days of racial segregation.

Read this headline and what year it's from like 4 or 5 times just to let it really marinate. https://t.co/VwCqAXaoBa

Racially-segregated housing on college campuses?
What freaking year is it??? How do people not see how counter-productive and outrageous this is? https://t.co/X9PN4RLEAd

The people who are pushing for this think it’s progress.
This sort of thing has a real history at my alma mater, where the first two black students faced riots and violence for insisting on attending the same spaces as white students https://t.co/ghH3driYME

This has been a push for this by some NYU students for a while. "Are Segregated Dorms the Answer" is the headline of an article their student paper wrote in 2016. pic.twitter.com/xfWPoyIdjS

What if an NYU student wanted to go through their four years with classes that only featured students of their own race? Would that be acceptable too?

A few people have brought up HBCUs. HBCUs do not ban white students! https://t.co/PQbRiiGRwv

NYU has a reddit, this is the top comment on the article about the dorms. To start with, what kind of person actually views their fellow student as the "oppressors"? That's a twisted mindset that leads you down the road to this. pic.twitter.com/O1oEPyd3pT

In case you’re wondering what college students are “learning” these days.
Desegregation was a pretty big pill to swallow for Democrats, so yes. https://t.co/O7KaFNpuNy

In case you’re still wondering why Richard Spencer endorsed the democrats…. https://t.co/tfUDiQESVQ
