BLACK AMERICAN PSYCHO
Junior Member
An organized protest at Cornell University supporting racial equality has been canceled after a black student group complained about the lack of people of color in the planning and attendance of the event, which appears to have been organized by a white student.
The group also stated that although the members appreciate the solidarity and interest of our allies, the organization would like to address prejudice in [their] own way. They then suggested that individuals who would like to show support for black causes should ask in advance for the organizations approval.
The event creator, who appears to be a white man on his Facebook profile, was accused of mocking the struggles of our communities and creating an event to promote himself.
Some Facebook commenters called the event creator a troll.
