(Image:By Pax Ahimsa Gethen via Wikimedia Commons)Beginning in October, San Diego State University is planning to offer a course called Black Minds Matter: A Focus on Black Boys and Men in Education, which will focus in part on events inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement. CBS News (via the Associated Press) reports: Craig DeLuz, a gun rights advocate with the Sacramento-based Firearms Policy Coalition, said a public university should not be offering a course that includes speakers from a movement whose members have been accused of inciting violence. The biggest concern is they are offering a course based on the Black Lives Matter movement which has promoted violence and segregation and has really little to do with education, let alone presenting a positive image of education, DeLuz said. SDSU joins a handful of schools â" including New York University, University of Washington and the University of Miami â" in offering classes that focus on the Black Lives Matter movement.

Heres a preview: Just because youâre feeling a certain way does not mean that they are feeling the same. This is a difficult situation where youâll want to ensure feelings are reciprocated before making any grand gestures. You can either ask them point blank about their feelings or simply ask some pointed questions to assess the situation a little better. The way that you approach this subject with your roommate largely depends on the nature of your relationship, so determine what the best course of action is for you and act accordingly. Just make sure that whichever method youâre using, youâre considering their feelings in addition to your own. Read all five steps to take right here. And if you read all the way down, awesome. Youre ready to get over this hump day have a great one.
