Williams College Archives: Racist AMKKK KILL Graffiti Hoax of 2016

I noticed there is still substantial interest in the great AMKKK KILL racist graffiti hoax which rocked Williams College in the wake of Trump's glorious election back in November, 2016.

This incident is a favorite among those of us who are weary of the false claims of racism which are now used to justify affirmative action, reparations, and new efforts to ban any criticism at all of POC. Unfortunately, the article in the Williams Record which the tweet attempts to link to is no longer available. I searched and could not find it myself. At any rate, here is a photo of the offending graffiti. The Berkshire Eagle did a report on the event too.


This graffiti was leveraged by the left to suggest that the forces of malevolent racism where active on campus. Alas, it later turned out that the graffiti was the work of two leftist students who thought they were making a statement intended "...to bring attention to the effects of the presidential election on many in our community."

The vandalism committed by these leftist students is evidence of the fact that at Williams College there was a time when the demand for racism exceeded its supply.
