Trump is emboldening Racism with College aged Students..

Most of these kids are not finding jobs except as being servers at Buffalo Wild Wings, Hooters, and other Sports Bars.. So they are now taking their previously suppressed feelings of racism and now are letting go. Black Lives Matter, Colin Kaepernick, hip hop, rap, spinners, signing are a few examples of Black contemporary which College kids use to emulate...and copy.

lately, I’ve been reading story after story concerning outbreaks of overt racism by College age students.
I think before Trump.. racist behavior was always there, but it was mostly suppressed.... but because of Trump’s viscous rhetoric(IMO) .. I am seeing more and more of it all over various media outlets.

Trump is inflicting terrible damage to our country...and he hasn’t even taken office yet.

I've pretty much given up on "my" people at this point. White teenage boys where I live are actually more racist, sexist, and homophobic than their grandfathers.

So this isn't that surprising. But like the rest of trump supporters they are more open about it and proud of it.
