Africans Boycott Macquarie University over Racist Remarks

African students in Australia have decided to stage a boycott of Sydney’s Macquarie University over racist remarks by Associate Professor Andrew Fraser. The professor claimed that refugees from Sub-Saharan Africa were a high crime risk because they had low IQs and high testosterone levels.

The comments have led to increasing harassment of innocent Sudanese Students in places like Toowoomba, according to The Australian newspaper report.

Consequently, the students have called on the university to discipline its professor and curb racism.

Andrew Fraser is right, the university wrong, the politicians and media people cowards and complicits for not supporting him, the africans proving his point by opposing free speech and democracy and the whole affair proof of the fact that Australia is now a dictatorship.
