Today's racist user comment that is unedited !/mayerjacoby/status/2049307… It’s also creepy that 40 year old men find pictures of 18 year old girls, and then ask users to “find them.” We need to celebrate diversity, education, and reward ideals related to striving for excellence.
These perpetuate the notion that US college students only drink and party. Black individuals have been marginalized since the dawn of this country, these are important outlets to let their voices grow.ġ0)We also take offense to the college galleries. The reason those institutions exist is because BLACK PEOPLE ARE MI NORITIES. Hateful stereotypes.ĩ)We are sick of the emails claiming BET, JET, and other black media is racis t. THIS HAS TO GO.Ĩ)The Chive, while not directly racist, continues to practice institutionalized racism by featuring white/Aryan/blonde/blue eye girls as more attractive. We have a growing number of scared women who have been contacted by you creepy chivers due to the “find her” gallery. It is just creepy to ask thousands of users to find the names of women. Why not celebrate their intellect with some historical examples?ħ)We take offense to the “find her” gallery. Is it so wrong to integra te min orities into all posts? Separate is not equal.Ħ)When the Chive does post pictures of black men and women, they perpetuate hateful stereotypes. So these racist idiots will continue to be racist.ĥ)Before you bash Mayer Jacoby, think about what the movement is saying. While we want to expose these individuals and potentially their employers, we have refrained. These emails exemplify some pretty stark racist, xenophobic, homophobic, and border-line threatening language.
To that end, I want to say the following:ġ)While the mayer jacoby anti-chive movement is very unpopular to some Chive folk, there is a growing population of individuals who post the rants and have expressed extreme disgust at the institutionalized racism by the ChiveĢ)Many disgusted Chive users have tried to submit HUNDREDS of pictures representing African American and Minor ity women, and to no avail.ģ)While the rants with caps-lock is certainly annoying, it is important to continue this strategy to gain attention and recognition of the Chive’s racist practicesĤ)There are horrible unspeakable emails from Chive users that will become public in due time. Through emails with Mayer Jacoby, I’ve found that several people are taking up his/her cause where the name is more symbolic, and less a representation of a single person. While I am not the original Mayer Jacoby, I am continuing his cause.
