[Peace-discuss] News Gazoo: Chancellor Jones' "Critical Conversation" on Chief Illiniwak

Sat Nov 4 12:42:13 UTC 2017

As you know the US Supreme Court recently  ruled that you have a First Amendment Right to trademark a racially derogatory name.Therefore, the Administration strategy here could be that they are going to resurrect Chief Illiniwak prancing at half-times and  then if the NCAA Sanctions them, sue the NCAA for violating their First Amendment Rights. And please don't tell me that the Illiniwak Lawyers have not figured this one out. I just did and I am  an  anti-Illiniwak Lawyer.

Subject: RE: News Gazoo: Chancellor Jones' "Critical Conversation" on Chief Illiniwak

Just recently the University of Illiniwaks resurrected Chief Illiniwak for their Fall 2007 Homecoming in order to better  milk their  Alumni/ae as part of their newly launched Capital Campaign, thus definitively  proving their craven racism.

Dear Friends:
       I hereby sincerely apologize to Chancellor Jones. He knows exactly what he is doing when it comes to Chief Illiniwak. As you can see from my essay quoted above, the last time  they trotted out Chief Illiniwak for a Homecoming Parade was 2007 in conjunction with their newly launched Capital Campaign for that year. Well this year ten years later they are launching a new Capital Campaign and once again they are trotting out Chief Illiniwak at the 2017 Homecoming Parade for the benefit of all the Illiniwaks who will be contributing Big Bucks to the new Capital Campaign. This is no coincidence! They know exactly what they are doing when it comes to exploiting Chief Illiniwak to milk money from the Illiniwak Nation. So this "Critical Conversation" and "dialogue" and "debate" over Chief Illiniwak could be an attempt to resurrect Chief Illiniwak prancing  at half-times.
Fab.

Actually I think it is pretty sad that Jones does not have a clue about Chief Illiniwak. The only Chancellor who did was Nancy Kantor-and the Illiniwaks drove her out of town on a rail. Fab.

The Racist Mascot: Why You Should Still Boo Illinois

The self-styled "Fighting Illini" of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign are on their way to the Jan. 1, 2008 Rose Bowl with their racist and genocidal mascot and symbol Chief Illiniwak still in tow.  Although the NCAA  forced the University of Illiniwaks to prevent this Little Red Sambo from desecrating at half-times everything American Indians hold dear and treasure, nevertheless Chief Illiniwak still remains the officially designated "honored symbol" of the University of Illiniwaks at Urbana-Champaign. Just recently the University of Illiniwaks resurrected Chief Illiniwak for their Fall 2007 Homecoming in order to better  milk their  Alumni/ae as part of their newly launched Capital Campaign, thus definitively  proving their craven racism. In his Year 501: The Conquest Continues (1993) Noam Chomsky suggests an apt metaphor for such American Indian sports  mascots and symbols that I will elaborate upon here in order to conform to our local and most peculiar rites on this campus:

Suppose the Nazis had won the Second World War. Sixty years later, a prestigious German state university has a mascot for all of its sports teams and sports fans by the name of "The Rabbi." Basically what happens is that a student from the Hitler Youth League dresses up in an authentic costume for an Hasidic Rabbi, complete with the curl-locks and a beard. The University itself collectively call themselves "The Fighting Jews," and the school's band is called "The Marching Jews." The student newspaper is called "The Daily Jew."   All the sports fans in town wear jackets and t-shirts with pictures of The Rabbi prominently displayed on them. And most cars have Rabbi stickers planted all over them.  Three years ago the University's Board of Trustees ran out of town on a rail a courageous and principled Chancellor who had the temerity to publicly suggest that the time had now come to "retire" the Rabbi. So of course there was a heated campaign on among the students and alumni to "Save the Rabbi!"

This German state university plays its soccer matches over at the Nuremberg Stadium in front of an audience of about 75,000 White Aryans, almost all of whom are wearing pro-Rabbi images and clothes. At half-time the Marching Jews take to the stadium floor and begin playing what they purport to be Jewish sounding music along the lines of Fiddler-on-the-Roof. Then all 75,000 White Aryans rise as one and shout in unison: "Rabbi! Rabbi! Rabbi! Rabbi!" gesticulating wildly and working themselves up into a feeding frenzy. One lone faculty member sits there in protest shouting "Racist Rabbi!" and everyone in the vicinity proceeds to throw garbage at him.1

Finally, the moment these ardent White Aryans have all waited for has arrived. The Rabbi runs out onto the arena floor from among the Marching Jews, proceeds to the center of the Nuremberg Stadium, and dances the Hava Nagila while the Marching Jews play on and march into an intricately choreographed maneuver that they all brag about and take special pride in that culminates with the band being organized into a Swastika. So the Rabbi continues to dance the Hava Nagila while the Marching Jews march themselves into a Swastika. By now all 75,000 White Aryans are hysterical, shouting, screaming, and yelling: "Rabbi! Rabbi! Rabbi!" This semi-religious spectacle that the Nazis are well known for staging, especially at the Nuremberg stadium, goes on for a good twenty minutes. It all concludes with everyone joining hands to sing "Deutschland, Deutschland, Uber Alles," with the Rabbi leading all 75,000 White Aryans in the song. Then the Rabbi proceeds to dance the Hava Nagila out of the stadium followed by the Marching Jews. Everyone goes wild, clapping and cheering. This Rabbi ceremony brings tears to the eyes of many drunken alumni and students who had started several hours beforehand getting inebriated on schnapps and good German beer at pre-game tailgate parties.

When it is all over, a visiting law professor from another country asks his host at the soccer match what this spectacle was all about. Without missing a beat Dean Mengele of the Law School turns to his guest and says: "We are honoring the Jews." Whom the Nazis had just exterminated 60 years ago, so of course the memory of the Jews needs to be honored by this spectacle. The Illiniwek Indians were ethnically cleansed out of Illinois about a century before that. These are the real "Little Eichmans." Be sure to "Boo!" and root against the Illiniwaks.

Subject: News Gazoo: Chancellor Jones' "Critical Conversation" on Chief Illiniwak

Dear Chancellor Jones:
After you are finished with your "Critical Conversation" and "dialogue" and "debate" over Chief Illiniwak, I would like to respectfully  suggest that we next  have a "Critical Conversation" and "dialogue" and "debate" over American  Slavery. Then we can move on to a "Critical Conversation" and "dialogue" and "debate" over the Nazi Holocaust against the Jews.
Yours very truly,
