Help within each race

Sometimes we talk about how there is a feeling of racism on campus. Whether it has to do with the interaction between teachers and students or just among the student body. I've heard stories from my friends of teachers who would point them out in class because they want a "different POV." They assume a different POV because of the way they look or if they have an accent, thinking they're from a different country. Now we always hear of issues along these lines where different races are picking on each other, but do we ever stop to think about people within the same race working against each other? Like hearing the saying "Black on black crime," and things along those lines. I personally don't support the BSU on this campus. I supported it in high school and I'm sure to try it somewhere else, but the people who work for the BSU have values that are different from mine. The point of BSU is to bring all types of people together to celebrate a culture and its accomplishments, but there is so much drama and bias people working within, it doesn't make me want to be a part of it. The point of me saying this is because we need to fix more than just the racism on this campus. We need to fix how we support each other because we are all trying to make it out of here so we can do our own thing. The only way we can fix that is if we take a real good look at ourselves.
