Chicago Club Denies Entry To Students Because Of Race
POLITICS

Mother's, a popular night club in Chicago, appears to be reinstating Jim Crow laws as they recently barred entry to six African-American patrons. The six students were part of a senior class trip of 200 students from Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri and had made plans to visit the establishment. Upon trying to entering the venue, the Black students were denied entry and were told it was because their pants were too baggy.

Not believing the hype, a white student switched pants with one of his classmates and tried the entry process again. Lo and behold, the white student was still allowed in while the Black student was left outside.

The students have filed complaints with the Chicago Human Rights Commission, the Illinois Attorney General and the U.S. Department of Justice.

The management of Mother's has stated that there is an internal investigation but racism was not the cause. Their concern was reportedly safety issues.

Yeah right.


These are the stories that motivate me to study for hours on this LSAT, go to law school,become a lawyer and..change the ignorant minds of some.....Yes you are one person , but you can make a difference.
