Messages Attack Asian Women at UCLA
Two incidents of racial and derogatory messages have been reported to campus police.
Asian women on Wednesday were the focus of a written attack for the second time this week at UCLA.
A second-year psychology student found a message handwritten on a bathroom stall door in the school's Powell Library calling Asian women "White-Boy Worshipping Sluts," according to The Daily Bruin. The message was found at about 12:30 p.m. and reported to university police at 1:30 p.m.
The discovery came on the heels of a similar find Tuesday morning, when students came across a piece of paper attached to the Vietnamese Student Union sign that read "asian women R Honkie white-boy worshipping Whores" and had a picture of an obscene hand gesture, as reported by the school's paper. The student organization's sign was on the fourth floor of Kerckhoff Hall.
