University College London apologises after 'dreaming of a white campus' tweet was deemed racist

Quote:
University College London has apologised after its "dreaming of a white campus" tweet was deemed to be racist.

The university said it was sorry and had chosen its words "very poorly", following a backlash from those who interpreted the message as an offensive remark.
I hope a lightening bolt filled with aids strikes the left testicle or barren uterus of the miserable person that complained about this.

It was stupid and poorly worded. Why not just leave the lyrics alone? Prof either is a racist or is too clueless to be teaching anyone.

Stupid, clueless, or possibly quite racist... that would describe anyone who thinks the phrase "dreaming of a white _______", used in December, may be referring to white people and not snow.

Must be a miserable existence to look at simple conversations, statements and phrases and see race in all of them.

Snow is racist cuz it's white. Fact.

That's why I had to move from northeast Ohio to southern California.

Each time a flake hit my dark skin it would boil and inflict serious pain.
