Fraternity paints over hateful graffiti only to find message of inclusion blotted out
A fraternity at the University of Windsor is replacing words of hate with messages of inclusion. But to the group's surprise, one of its messages has already been painted over.
'What kind of person has the energy to erase that sort of message?' asks fraternity president
A fraternity at the University of Windsor is replacing words of hate with messages of inclusion.
Pi Lambda Phi decided to take action after anti-Muslim messages began appearing around the city's west end recently.
But to the group's surprise, one of its messages promoting inclusion has already been crossed out.
"The message is 'Hate free is the way to be.' It's not a personal attack or anything. It seems like common sense, so I gotta ask: What kind of person has the energy to erase that sort of message?" said fraternity president Taylan Osei.
"What kind of message are you putting out - that hate is the way? It doesn't make sense to me," he added.
Osei says there's no place for hatred in Windsor.
