It remains a complete mystery to us, however, why Cornell thought it appropriate to publicly announce these facts via mass email,” the group wrote in a scathing Facebook post.
coronavirus in florida - The pro-Palestine student group complained that the Office of Student and Campus Life for Health and Wellbeing sent out multiple emails related to the Coronavirus but never emailed students about the “U.S, seasonal flu,” which is also impacting students. “Why then, the disproportionate focus on this particular disease and its country of origin? In a time when the people of China are facing this disease head-on, we encourage an attitude of internationalist cooperation as opposed to divisive fear -- instead of buying into Sinophobic rhetoric about the origin and spread of the Coronavirus, we stand in support of a global community committed to fighting this disease,” the group wrote. “The disproportionate public response to Coronavirus would not have occurred without pre-existing xenophobic perceptions of Asian people, which have been legitimized by the nativist discourse around U.S-China relations.”

Even though Cornell may enthusiastically participate in this racist fear mongering, it doesn’t mean that we must do so as well,” the group wrote. “We encourage the Cornell and Ithaca community to reject this pathetic mass email and put our energies, instead, towards fighting these institutions that manufacture such crises in order to distract us from the ongoing crisis of capitalism.”
