<p>EarlVanDorn, I know the date when that particular fraternity engaged in such tasteless acts. “Dixie” in it’s original lyrics is a harmful misrepresentation of a particular demographic and class. It was performed blackface, a form of theatrical makeup used in minstrel shows, and later vaudeville, in which performers create a stereotyped caricature of a black person. The practice gained popularity during the 19th century and contributed to the proliferation of stereotypes such as the “happy-go-lucky darky on the plantation” or the “dandified coon”. Please do research on “Dixie”, the original lyrics. It is ineresting that a large number of the mainstream southern population uses such speech and dialect and are proud of it but ridducules and makes a mockery of another demographic (Americans of color) when it was used in the day. I can not believe the KKK are still allowed to exist in the USA or in any nation. I am against any group or people who promote any form of such racial superiorty. Yes. Some students are affiliated wth such terrorist groups. Some groups should be banned from free speech, especially when it is hateful and evil. I saw a documenary of a group of these uneducated groups who promote such seperatism and claimed that such groups were uneducated and had a lower I.Q. than those of whites and yet, his native language is English and butchered tons of verbs. Also documentary featured an interracial married couple. They described their experinces on the town square in an establishment where a patrioned was in shock that they were married. Do people not venture out of Oxford and know there is a big world, filled with diverse people, culture, languages, etc? Partying along florida beaches does is not inculded. Hehe! I do not understand here this area where it the idea of moving progressing forward, is to actually move backwards. The week of the Presidential election does not make things any better nor the classless tweets and facebook messages. Only in the Divided States of Amerikkka.</p>
