Demands.org

This site compiles all of the demands by students (on behalf of black people) on each college campus in America.

Each college varies.

Here are some of the demands I’ve plucked out from the collection.

WE DEMAND free tuition for Black and indigenous students – Black Liberation Collective.

We demand an increase in tenure-stream faculty whose research specializes in Black Politics, Black Linguistics, Black Queer Studies, Hip-Hop Studies. All these faculty hires must be approved by a panel of Black student leaders and will be tenured in the Department of African American and African Studies. – Michigan State

We demand better quality of life for graduate students of color.  – Brown

Mandate yearly diversity and inclusion workshops for all faculty and staff – Brandeis

We demand that Tufts be better prepared to address the mental health needs of Black students. -Tufts

Improved mental health services that cater to the unique and diverse needs of students of color. – Claremont

We demand Black studies built into the curriculum of every major. – Eastern Michigan

Do not threaten the jobs of the faculty, staff, or administrators that support our list of demands. Such threats will result in an escalation of our response. – Amherst

Restructure student government to include a Student House of Representatives parallel to Student Senate that is comprised of a Black Rep., Latino Rep., Asian Rep., Queer Rep., Women’s Rep., etc. – NYU

We demand a Black Cultural Space on Portland State University Campus by Fall Term 2016, where students can feel safe, accepted, supported and like they belong – PSU

Afrocentric residential floor for Black students to address unrealistic housing fees on and around campus. – San Francisco State  (They are demanding segregation! -bfh)

Increased financial aid resources for retention of African American students at SLU. – SLU

We demand an opportunity to educate and be educated about America’s historical treatment – University of Michigan (They demand to be the teachers! -bfh)

We demand that our university acknowledge that this institution was built on the backs of enslaved Africans – University of South Carolina

Double the number of black faculty members to 10 percent of the total number of professors by 2017 – Virginia Commonwealth (This must be some sort of CommonCoreWealth math, because I can’t follow what they are saying. Are they saying the current policy is that the total number of black professors must be 5% of the total number of professors? Or did they simply count the number of black professors, figured out it was 5% of the faculty and now they want it to be 10%? Why 10%? How did the arrive at this being a “fair” number? Why not 40%?  And I mean that seriously, why not 40%? I’d love to hear their answer.- bfh)

  1. I’m all for the mental health services. Heck, I’ll even bring a Lincoln arc welder to your college and administer free shock treatments. I think I might be able to operate a knitting needle and ball-peen hammer too, if that degree of mental health service is needed.

    ** Lincoln™, the supreme name in black mental health services. **

  2. To get a degree, become a paid spokesperson as an authority on the subject, in the “honorable” (heavy on quotations) effort to get the status quo to agree, and then…you guessed it Cowgirl..COEXIST.

  3. “Leading from behind” says, “Do what you do, be who you be, you don’t need to ever be checked up, reprimanded, corrected, busted.”
    Or in other words, unaccountable for ones’ own actions.

  4. “Hip-Hop Studies” was my favorite until I saw the “Black Queer” department.

    The free market will take care of this just like everything else. Places offering this garbage will go under and Hillsdale and Liberty will become pre-eminent among American universities.

  5. I have some counter demands:

    That universities expel all students that are 1) majoring or minoring any type of ethnic and/or gender studies program, and/or 2) illegal aliens, and/or 3) homosexuals or any other type of sexual deviant.

    That the ethnic and gender studies departments at every university be shut down, and the professors in those departments fired.

    That taxpayers no longer guarantee student loans.

    That the administration of every public university be comprised solely of conservative heterosexual white men, because “diversity” is pretty clearly not working (maybe we should try this with Congress, too?).
