密苏里抗议种族压迫的活动者在 Twitter 上抱怨说新闻都去关注法国了,抢了他们头
条让他们很不爽
“烦死那些种族歧视的白人了,你们想让每个人去同情你们的惨剧,我们才不会呢”
Activists that have taken over U.S. college campuses this week protesting
racial injustice took to Twitter last night to complain that news coverage
of the deadly terrorist attacks in Paris had stolen their spotlight.
Black Lives Matter and Mizzou protesters on Twitter said their struggles
with racial oppression were being “erased” by the overwhelming news
coverage of the murder of scores of people at the hands of Islamic State
extremists.
“Racist white people kill me, you want everyone to have sympathy for YOUR
tragedy, but you have none for ours,” one user tweeted, adding “#Mizzou.”
“Disgusted @ white conservative Americans using Paris as a ‘see black
people, your woes here w/ us could be more extreme,’ but not surprised,”
another user tweeted.
Many protesters, including Black Lives Matter national leaders, said the
racial injustice at college campuses and the attacks in Paris were both acts
of terrorism.

“Interesting how the news reports are covering the Paris terrorist attacks
but said nothing abut the terrorist attack at #Mizzou,” one user tweeted
reads.
“Paris attacks were terrorism. black students getting death threats on
their college campuses (A SUPPOSED SAFE SPACE!!) is also TERRORISM,”
another tweet reads.
“There is no rank order to injustice,” DeRay McKesson, a prominent civil
rights activist tweeted. “We fight for #Mizzou, #PrayForParis, and seek
justice for #SandraBland — at the same time.”
In a statement Saturday night, the University of Missouri said the tweets
were being dispersed by “individuals from outside the Mizzou community in
an attempt to create conflict.”
“Our hearts go out to the citizens of Paris and all those affected by the
tragic events of last night,” the University said. “While our community
has faced difficulties over the past week, we express our sincere sympathy
to those who have been affected by the events in Paris and remain committed
to making Mizzou stronger and more inclusive.”
At least 129 people were killed in a string of shootings and suicide bombing
carried out by Islamic State supporters in and around Paris on Friday night
. French President Francois Hollande called the attacks an “act of war.”
Students at the University of Missouri have launched protests over several
racial incidents they claimed were mishandled by university officials. Last
week, university president Tim Wolfe stepped down amid the controversy.
Students complained of several incidents including the appearance of a
Swastika drawn with feces, and a prank where white students placed cotton
balls in the bushes outside a Black Culture Center at the school. Black
students also claimed that school officials had done little to combat racist
remarks made against them on campus.
Police also arrested a 19-year-old man, Hunter Park, for allegedly
threatening to shoot Black students and administrators on social media.
Missouri student body president Payton Head stepped down this week after it
was revealed that lied about a “confirmed” Klu Klux Klan threat on campus. |
