Another example of the rising racial tensions in this country hit Eastern Michigan University earlier this week when white supremacist graffiti was found in a dorm this week.
A protest was planned -- peacefully -- for the end of last night's game between Eastern Michigan and Wyoming. The students marched on the field, joined by at least one Wyoming player.
The protest went completely as negotiated with the University and planned -- unlike one earlier this week when some dipshit decided to attempt to run over as many protestors as she could with her SUV!
The great thing, according to the Deadspin report, was that CBS Sports Network, covering the game, chose, also, to cover the protest as a news story -- not only when it happened, but with everything which led up to it.
As I've said with several other posts on the subject, it's on and it's no longer avoidable: Something's going down here. And something's going down here real damned soon, if it's not already beginning in progress.
