Please Please. Don't get anymore defensive!
Even if it had been dealt with by the university, people may be concerned - it's clear that many of you are concerned evidenced by 10000% defensiveness.
Grow up.
What was wrong with that? It's made up of a few questions and one generallist opinion (which many people would agree with).
All she gets in responses are angry people who can't deal with a issue that was not asked in a way to piss you off. She never said that all prople at Newcastle uni were racist. She never made any assertions. She asked questions.

Not because of the threads she makes (although, that does play a role)
EDIT: whoa, should refresh before replying, huh
ahhh ok, well 'racism is part of the landscape' is a quote from the article.thecurtainfalls said:timrie - the media usually does blow things out of proportion, it's a small proportion of thousands that form these so called "racial hate groups". i think what caused all the flaming from other board members was your comment of "Racism part of the landscape?", you made it seem like it was a majority of newcastle uni students are racist and like it was an everyday thing. there's always some degree of racism wherever you go for uni, not just newcastle. there's even a group like that patriotic youth league thing at UNSW!
i wouldn't know about newcastle uni as i don't go there (yet) but i tihnk you offended newcastle uni students by generalising and digging up old matters that most likely have been dealt with.
good questionheyyawatever said:Did I miss something? What did this t imrie character do to attract such angry replies?
*confused*
thankyou everyone with helpful replies, I appreciate itComrade nathan said:This group has been active for awhile, a non mainstream magazine and political Trot group Resistence have published a few articles about this group, its jsut not eh mainstream that have taken worry to this group.
This white nationalist group is called the Patriotic Youth League.
They have been recently posting out anti Sundanese leaflets.

There organisation is meant to be small, but there support is something unknown.
The PYL are planing on having some demostration about the Sudanese refugees and Resitence are playing on a counter demostration. Im not sure if any other groups are planing on joining but usally the Trots take over everything. If you want details how to attend this counter demostration you can PM and i will send you a email with all the detials
timrie6 was good to point this out as it doesnt matter how little these groups, they start from a small base and build out. The problem is these groups are extremly violent even if they are a small organisation. Groups like these should be addresed and dealt with quickly before morons start joining them.

seeka said:yeh i only saw one sticker, on the giant cement pole in the middle of the carpark outside maths. and it was one of those white youth recruitment stickers.
i saw more stickers on promoting racial harmony in the uni than anything else.
i felt nothing racist in the people though.
just a few rotten apples
