DOWAGIAC, Mich. – Classrooms were noticeably empty at Dowagiac Union High School on Thursday. It’s been almost a week since administrators banned students from wearing anything with the Confederate flag.

Since then, things at the school have been tense, “It’s been really hectic, pretty awkward,” Brittany Williams said.

Thursday was a half day for students, Williams and her friend spent the day downtown trying to escape the controversy at the high school.

“They need to stop. They’re doing it on purpose just to agitate people,” Williams said.

To her, it’s not just the Confederate flag she finds offensive, it’s the students who are wearing it and their reasoning behind it. “A lot of them don’t interact with black people,” Williams said. “So a lot of them, I think, are being racist.” [Bull; what possible “reasoning” would she accept?]

“We’re just standing up for what we believe in,” Wayne Matthews said. He’s one of the students who helped pass out t-shirts before school Wednesday morning. His mother made 32 Confederate flag t-shirts and stacked them up in the back of her trunk.

Williams lives next door to the Matthews family, “They’ve never liked us and we never did anything to them, so I do think it’s because we’re black.”

Matthews said this has nothing to do with race [He’s obviously lying, too, but telling the truth could get him arrested, not to mention, thrown out of school, while black students can rant against whites with impunity]; it’s about his right to freely express himself. To him, the Confederate flag does not represent any one race. “It stands for people that believe in what the Civil War is about and it stands for Southern pride,” Matthews said.

Brittany’s friend, Gabrielle Williams doesn’t buy it, “You’re family is not from the South, you’re not from the South, there is no reason to be going around wearing it and trying to offend people by it.” [She’s right about his family not being from the South, but does she attack blacks for wearing black nationalist regalia? Don’t make me laugh.]

Gabrielle Williams said the all of the controversy does make her high school or her town look bad, but she hopes it will be a reality check for the people who live in Dowagiac.

She also said you don’t always see the looks or hear all the comments, but “…Behind closed doors, yeah, I think racism is alive in this city.” [Which kind? It’s the blacks who are making the violent threats.]

So far, the battle over the Confederate flag has only created more boundaries between different races and groups at the high school. Threats of violence have been exchanged [“exchanged” means that blacks threatened whites, and that whites threatened blacks; however, it sounds more like blacks threatened whites, period] both at the school and on the web.

“It is kind of scary going to school and knowing that anything could happen because everyone is upset,” said Gabrielle Williams. [“Anything” could happen? Not to you, dear. I see honesty isn’t your strong suit, either, but unlike Matthews, you can give your real opinion, without fear of punishment.]

Matthews said when he walked into school in his t-shirt, another student threatened to beat him up. “I was confronted by one, a colored kid and he was calling me names and stuff.” [But no punishment or arrest for him, for a hate crime.]

And it’s not just the students, other people in the community are now involved, eager to voice their own thoughts and opinions

“My brother had gotten called a little mixed breed by one of the parents yesterday,” Brittany Williams said. [Really? Assuming this really happened, did the parent threaten to beat him up? And was the parent even white?]

Police officers have posted up outside the school for the last two days, and the school’s administration told students they are looking into all of the threats. [But only for threats made by whites against blacks.] The students who wore the Confederate flag t-shirts to school on Wednesday did not return the next day.

Gabrielle Williams said she’s not sure how the students will heal [“Heal”? From what?], she said this has turned into [read: blacks have turned it into] another race war and it will be difficult to move on from here.

“[Black] People that are still angry about it, people that won’t let it go,” she said. “I really think [read: hope] that they’re going to be targeted when this is all over with.” [In other words, it won’t ever be over. Whites must submit to blacks, or face race war.]
