Marybeth Gasman, a higher education professor at the University of Pennsylvania claimed that the UNCF – a charitable organization dedicated to helping black people get college degrees – is “wrong†to accept this particular $25 million to help black people get college degrees, according to Inside Higher Ed.
Gasman bellowed that Koch organizations have been “deeply affiliated with the Tea Party.†She alleges that Tea Party leaders want to weaken the political interests of black Americans.

Exactly. Blacks need to be liberated from leftism.

Oh yeah....refuse those gifts and handouts.....take it to the next level and turn down all those government freebies, why don't cha.

Some people are so eeeeeee-vile that they pollute their money. Besides, letting them donate to charities might have people seeing that the Koch Brothers are human beings rather than bipedal demons.

An update on this story:
Koch brother grant halts union support for United Negro College Fund (http://nypost.com/2014/07/10/koch-brother-grant-halts-union-support-for-united-negro-college-fund/)
By Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A powerful government workers’ union will end its support for the United Negro College Fund after the group accepted $25 million from the conservative powerhouse Koch brothers and the college fund’s president appeared at a Koch event.
In a letter made public Thursday, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees said it will no longer partner with or raise funds for the fund, known for its iconic motto, “A mind is a terrible thing to waste.â€
AFSCME President Lee Saunders said the actions of the college fund’s president “are not only deeply hostile to the rights and dignity of public employees, but also a profound betrayal of the ideals of the civil rights movement.â€
Stay on the Liberal Plantation, black people! Just. Amazing!

OK then. Please Koch Brothers pass that money to another group that want to learn on your dime. I am sure you can find some appreciative group that isn't full of victims. Better yet, Give it to St Jude if you aren't already. :-)

Just to be clear, UNCF's response in this kerfuffle has been, to the best of my knowledge, to thank the Koch brothers for their generosity. It's been Koch-phobic Libs and Progs who have been trying to gin up an issue and pressure UNCF to throw the $$ back.

Gasman bellowed
The irony......... :rotf:
-
I believe most of the Koch brother's businesses are unionized. They should really piss them off and start hiring Illegals and bust the unions.

Wow....the left will be wearing Nazi arm bands before long.

Leftists RAGE After United Negro College Fund Accepts $25 Million From Koch Brothers
(http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100318024246/southpark/images/e/e9/ScottTenormanMustDie30.gif)
I heard today, that the union (gub'mint employee's union) that went on record, giving UNCF the ultimatum to "give back the Koch Brother's money, or we're through with you", has an annual contribution to the UNCF of about $50,000.
Think about that: the gub'mint workers union wanted UNCF to give back $25 million, so that the organization could continue to receive $50 large a year from the gub'mint thugs. :thatsright:

The Kochs are greatly generous men.
David Koch, personally has donated (stolen from wikipedia):
$20 million to Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine
$30 million to the Memorial Sloan–Kettering Cancer Center
$25 million to the University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center
$15 million to New York-Presbyterian Hospital Weill Cornell Medical Center
$5 million to the House Ear Institute, in Los Angeles, to create a center for hearing restoration
$25 million to the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City
$100 million to New York-Presbyterian Hospital, the first part of a $2 billion endowment
$100 million to MIT for a new cancer center
$100 million to the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts
$55 million to the Smithsonian Museum for two dinosaur exhibit programs
$15 million to the National Museum of Natural History
What Leftist has come anywhere close to that kind of personal generosity?

...uh....uh....but the Clinton's have a family foundation that they give all their speaking fees to. Don't think there are any records of them donating to any worthy cause other than themselves.

Libs are great at having nothing, then taking it up a notch.
