      I'm just coming around to what apparently happened to @CharlesMBlow's son at the hands of @Yale police. As an alum, I'm not surprised.

      Despite the amazing connections made and learning I did there, @Yale remains one of the most racist institutions I've ever interacted with.

      As poor poc that @Yale gave full scholarships and a ton of other resources to, there's a tendency for us to stay silent about racism there.

      I graduated in '12, so what I'm about to tweet about @Yale is both just superficial but also very recent shit.

      As an undergrad at @Yale, you belong to one of 12 residential colleges. Mine was called Calhoun—named after John Calhoun, Confederate hero.

      You know how people try and say some Confederate people weren't "really" racist? Not Calhoun. He was a vehement racist.

      If you're not familiar with it, read John Calhoun's "Slavery is a positive good," a white supremacist document: http://teachingamericanhistory.org/library/document/slavery-a-positive-good/ …

      Despite Calhoun's profound racism, @Yale named a residential college after him and insists on keeping his name, likeness and his legacy.

          Meanwhile, @Yale 's busy building a 13th residential college. We're petitioning to finally name one after a poc. Note: it's 2015.

          It's not just Calhoun College at @Yale. I can share dozens of stories about my time there and how the school is institutionally racist.

          Also know that @Yale has already gathered a team of experts to shut down conversations about what happened to @CharlesMBlow's son.

          Within 48 hours, @Yale will issue a feel good unity statement about a group of people that are going to investigate racism or whatever.

          That's how the @Yale machine works. And it banks on alum staying silent. They forget that some of won't.
