Truth about the University of Oregon The Unofficial Tour 3

[MrDonneiDarko]

people want to be homogenous, call them racist, force integration upon them, stupid evil wyt people, go back to Africa or Harlem mudslime

[thestein00]

Skinner's Butte is NOT a short walk from Deady Hall. It's a LONG ass walk............

[Bureyeanne]

@thestein00 I walked that distance when I shot, "Eegah Titles". You gotta think in terms of 1921 era. Walking 10-12 blocks would have been a stroll for them. Plus the two bridges weren't built yet so it would have been a more straight shot. Ergo "Farry St. Bridge." the location of the farry across the river.

[franco121760]

Is this still hapenning now in 2010?

[Bureyeanne]

@franco121760 Yes and no. No the sense that there is no Kiddy Kollege Klub or Oregon Knights on campus. and if a bunch of frat boys dressed in mistrial black and white make-up there would be hell to pay. (actually recently a FL frat got in big trouble for that a few years back)

Mostly the KKK in Oregon is very undercover, in small towns of about 900 or so, without any sort of attention bought to themselves. Most crepie was that the whole shelf on the subject was AWOL from the library.

[MrDonneiDarko]

@Bureyeanne ooooh creepy, you suck

[giveholy]

Bureyeanne - at the end of this part and the beginning of part 4 you suggest that friendly was a member of the ku klux klan. You spend most of part 3 discussing the segregation that happened in friendly hall and the influence that the KKK had in oregon government and university members but I dont see any evidence that connects Samuel Friendly himself with the kkk (only that a building named after him was segregated). Is there evidence he was a white supremest? Thanks!

[Bureyeanne]

@giveholy Um. It was the summer of 2006 I made this video. I can't remember where my notes are hidden on this project. I can point that much of my research came from Eckard Toy's doctrial thesis stored in the special collection by Knight Libary.

[kidwithoutgun]

why do you keep saying KLU? it's KU Klux Klan bro.

[Bureyeanne]

@kidwithoutgun Because I shot this at 4 am and had a two at least a 64 oz of caffeinated beverage.

[kweharts]

GO BEAVS!

[Bureyeanne]

I'm all for a good game. I do want to add that based on my research there was a lot of KKK activity in Corvallis at the time as well.

[MLGNiKe]

fuck the beavers GO DUCKS QUACK ATTACK

[Bureyeanne]

I once saw a t-shirt at a duck/huskies game that read "Huck the Fuskies." Now "Huck" is probably from Tom Sayer. But I still haven't figured out what a "Fuskie" is .

[akhazauh]

Paul White Merriweather Lewis was an American Baptist missionary who got his PhD. at the KKK U of O for sterilizing Akha women. Assholes like this need to be in hell. Frohnmayer thinks it's ok. Fuck U of O.

[infideluxe]

What?! You say a segment of the American population was discriminated against, marginalized, and denied equal rights? Wow. Good thing that doesn't happen anymore, huh?

[seeingthesigns]

Ha, it still does happen. Only now whites are the one's discriminated against. But it's not called racism. It's called 'equal rights for all', or 'celebrate diversity'.

[infideluxe]

No, equal rights are leveling the playing field, you're feeling your privileged status slipping, and you're unhappy.

Grow up.

[ErikBishoff]

This is amazing... that white cross was up on the butte for years and years. It always made me uncomfortable and, considering its history, I can't believe it was allowed to stay for so long. It is now on a hillside overlooking I5 just to the north of Eugene one someones private property. It is unfortunate that this symbol of the Ku Klux Klan persists in the heart of the Willamette Valley... today!

[Bureyeanne]

As an art major I can tell you that symbols change meaning over time. There really isn't anything Christian about a cross anyway. The romans killed about 530 with crosses in a single day. However, it is also the way people are misguided with religious symbols and rhetoric.

[greatvideo2]

The cross that you see off of I5 is a different cross. The cross that was on skinners butte was moved to the eugene bible collage over by baily hill road and 18th street, just up the hill from churchill high school. There the cross is lit every night.

[SkaiHighCOnnections]

WOW Born in Springfield ...so the KKK and Meth came from the same place.... a little white girl from Oregon gave birth to M L KING Jrs Grand Nephew ...Over come the hate

and show the new loving hearts in Oregon!!!

[Bureyeanne]

It only has a little to do with hate, but everything to do with money. I know it seems different. Consider that Roseburg, Or. is named after a Jewish man. Why considering the presence of the Klan? Because he knew to pay for the KKK's annual dinner. From what I gather the KKK is and was the frat for the poor-white-thrash that want to be in high society. You're above comment is correct. Not only is the U of O not a haven of peace and understanding, such feelings have not gone away in Lane County.

[SkaiHighCOnnections]

Ohh Thats funny IM related to the people who settled Oakland...Sutherland Roseburg are...I hear there is a museum on a James Cole... Cole valley Rd ect....Still have family there... grew up in Springfield/Eugene near day island park...Much love O C F rocks !!!

[gooyzit]

Or Linn for that matter

[fcbayern10]

FUCK the KKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RobinHood1969]

Study Beatrice Cannady!! She knows!! Call up Michael Moore He'll eat this Nazi Klan apart!!

Time to reinvestigate our schools and teachers!! They are the abusers of us here in spfld.

[RobinHood1969]

My Father Marvin Neill/Warfield actually dug the whole for the cross to be placed in memory of the veitnaum vets. This is another attemped for our state to cover up wars!! No hate was involved in the placment of the cross. But you may want to ask yourselves was it just another repeat of Degenerate Art!! Ruth Bathscum recruited a team to remove it and place it in front of the calvery church.

[Bureyeanne]

I am not opposed to any symbol of Faith. Fath helps bad people become good and good people better. I am opposed to covering up the truth of what happened in Eugene.

[196838S]

Well I was pretty upset when the cross was removed, because it was a war memorial in honor of soldiers lost in battle (at least that's what the plaque said). And it may seem a bit wacko to you, but almost exactly a year later after the cross was removed, there was a horrible school shooting at Thurston High. Maybe I should put a t-shirt on and preach at Erb . . .

[196838S]

So . . . was the cross up on Skinner's Butte removed in the mid '90s because decades earlier some crazy fools burned crosses up there?? I never could figure out why the community was so anti-cross. I guess I understand now.

[Bureyeanne]

Yeah, the cross was at about the exact same location as KKK burnings. Yet you don't see protests at the Eugene Bible College where it was moved. In reality though, crosses are not christian. The Romans for example nailed over 530 people to crosses in a single day. It hardly represents a single person. And check out part 2 of this project. It contains far more shocking news.

[Bureyeanne]

This might be confusing because it is part 3 of an 8 part video. All religons do not subscribe to the KKK. That group represents only about 8,000 people by last count. There arn't any reported linchings in Lane County. It is doubtful that there were any since it was illegal to be black living in Oregon.

[Bureyeanne]

The Ku Kulx Klan is a so called christian org.

[Skalinger]

join to the Ku Klux Klan and save our christian land

[Deepskirt]

The KKK is the most un-Christian organization ever....

[papabowden]

why did you take the time to acknowledge that ?

[augustenborg]

your a traitor

[Bureyeanne]

Don't you mean, you are or you're. Otherwise you imply I own a traitor. By the way how am I a traitor? I'm a fan of the U of O. Not it's lies mind you, but a fan.

[SpyruleG]

I'm behind you 100%

[dlidd]

Fuck you ya Kraut piece of shit. You hate-mongering fascist fuck. Thank god you bastards don't have a voice in soceity, you never will. You're nothing more than a smear of shit on humanity.

[sirrudeboy]

ska against racism. oi.
