Re: Frat \"Hood\" party
[ QUOTE ]
At first read, it seems like the usual hyper-sensitive politically correct BS that you'd expect. There's nothing wrong with this--does anyone get upset when a frat has a "white-trash" party?

well maybe if the people throwing the 'hood party' were black this analogy would make sense.
although if black people threw a 'white trash' party and dressed up like trailer trash i would probably think it was pretty funny.
the fact that it's a frat event and that it happened in an area where racial tensions are already present makes the reaction pretty standard. if they had thrown this thing in the middle of nebraska or whatever i don't think anyone would have noticed. wouldn't make it more or less tasteful, just sayin.
i for one would probably not feel good bringing any of my black friends to this party.
