It seems that some Greek wannabe nigras were "triggered" this past week by observing a banana peel discarded into a tree. One of the Mississippi red neck brethren later confessed to tossing the peel because he couldn't locate a convenient trash can in his path - and no doubt thinking the peel would ultimately "biodegrade" in the tree.
Now the Greeks didn't get their first banana until the 16th Century after Columbus discovered the Americans - preferring instead to concentrate on inventing and perfecting sodomy, and passing it on to the Romans and ultimately the cathylicks. Why any nigra would want to "identify" with a Greek "fraternity" is anyone's guess - but I digress.
Evidently the nigras were "triggered" by the "image" of porch monkeys sitting around eating bananas, a thing we all enjoy watching when visiting the zoo. Some say it's "racist", but one has to question just where this comes from - and we have to look no further than Darwin and the EVILutionists. It's taught in all the schools - the nigras are descendents of the apes, monkeys and gorillas, and the nigra takes to bananas like ducks to water.
We here at Landover Baptist are the first to condemn racism, along with the teachings of Darwin. The Bible (KJV1611) has a more plausible explanation for the nigra as descendents of Ham - you can read about it further here:
Nigras could do themselves some good and join the Landover Baptist Church and be treated humanely according to God's teachings instead of hanging around with a bunch of Greeks.

Ole Miss Greek life retreat ends abruptly with bias concerns
Posted on Aug 30 2017 - 8:05am by Slade Rand and Rachel Ishee
This weekend, leaders from Ole Miss Greek life convened upon Camp Hopewell in Lafayette County for a three-day retreat designed to build leaders and bring campus closer together. The retreat was cut short Saturday night, however, after three black students found a banana peel in a tree in front of one of the camp’s cabins.
The students shared what they found with National Pan-Hellenic Council leaders, sparking a day’s worth of camp-wide conversation surrounding symbolism, intended or not. In the midst of the open and sometimes heated discussion, senior accounting major Ryan Swanson said he put the banana peel in the tree when he could not find a trashcan nearby.
Alexa Lee Arndt, interim director of Fraternity and Sorority Life, said she was one of the only university staff members acting in an administrative capacity at the weekend retreat. Monday afternoon, she sent a letter to all campus chapter presidents, council officers and chapter advisers, confirming the incident and outlining the university’s plans.
“To be clear, many members of our community were hurt, frightened, and upset by what occurred at IMPACT … Because of the underlying reality many students of color endure on a daily basis, the conversation manifested into a larger conversation about race relations today at the University of Mississippi,” Arndt wrote in the letter acquired by The DM.
Student members of Panhellenic Council, National Pan-Hellenic Council and Interfraternity Council were all present at the retreat, which was organized by Fraternity and Sorority Life and the national group IMPACT. IMPACT is a campus-based leadership institute designed to foster improved relationships among campus leaders through a retreat-type program.
Makala McNeil, president of Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority, one of the nine historically African-American sororities and fraternities, said she saw the banana peel after leaving a group discussion that addressed race relations. Saturday morning, all of the retreat’s participants ate breakfast together, followed by a session where they shared their feelings on race relations at Ole Miss. The breakfast options included a fruit cart with bananas.
“The overall tone was heavy,” McNeil, a senior integrated marketing communications and sociology major, said. “I mean, we were talking about race in Mississippi, at the University of Mississippi and in the Greek community, so there’s a lot involved.”
After the large discussion session, the students split into smaller conversation groups. McNeil said that around noon on Saturday, she was walking with friends to their group session across camp when one of her sorority sisters pointed at a tree 15 feet away. She said that about six feet up the tree’s trunk sat a lone, fresh-looking banana peel.
“It was so strange and surreal to see it there,” McNeil said. “We were all just sort of paranoid for a second.” She said the image was especially disturbing in light of an incident on American University’s campus in May of this year. The morning Taylor Dumpson was to take over as the school’s first female black student government president, students found bananas hanging from nooses across campus. Some of the bananas were inscribed with references to Dumpson’s sorority, Alpha Kappa Alpha. “That, to me, was a slap in the face to see that banana hanging in a tree after talking about the personal truths of our campus,” McNeil said.
. . . .
“There were a lot of emotions being showed and a lot of transparency,” McNeil said. “I just don’t feel as though it was being facilitated in a constructive way.”
The massive discussion session wrapped up as more and more students stood and left the room – some in tears, some in frustration. NPHC members began texting friends to come and pick them up from the camp since no one had been allowed to drive his or her car up to the retreat. The remainder of the retreat was canceled later that night.
“At that point, we didn’t feel welcome; we didn’t feel safe,” McNeil said. “If we didn’t feel wanted or safe at the camp, our best option was to leave.”
