Strip the University of Texas of their fight song

University of Texas president addresses 'Eyes of Texas' controversy, defends players targeted by furious alums (https://www.foxnews.com/sports/texas-president-eyes-of-texas-defends-players)

The wording of the song is as follows.[6]

The Eyes of Texas are upon you,
All the livelong day.
The Eyes of Texas are upon you,
You cannot get away.
Do not think you can escape them
At night or early in the morn --
The Eyes of Texas are upon you
Til Gabriel blows his horn.

Pure idiocy.

I am sick of it.

The Seuss stuff is just over the top. I never once read a Seuss book as a child and thought about race...I thought and learned about inclusiveness..

Race is just a narrative.
