Ivy League Students Launch Mock Slave Auction to Protest a Frat’s Beyonce Doll
A Penn social-justice group aimed to tie the purchase of the doll to the purchase of slaves.
Students at the University of Pennsylvania staged a mock slave auction outside of a fraternity house to protest the fact that a Beyonce blow-up doll had appeared in its Christmas-card photo more than four months ago.
The purpose of the auction, led by a campus social-justice group called Students Organizing for Unity and Liberation (“SOUL”), was to tie the purchase of the blow-up doll in December to the purchase of actual human beings in the times of slavery, according to an article in the Daily Pennsylvanian, the school’s official student newspaper.

Yes. Because purchasing a doll is EXACTLY like purchasing another human being. Parents should be marching on this university demanding their money back.
