The University of Oklahoma Sigma Alpha Epsilon racism incident occurred on March 7, 2015, when University of Oklahoma (OU) Sigma Alpha Epsilon (SAE) members were filmed performing a racially insensitive song that used the word "nigger", referenced lynching, and implied that black students would never be admitted to the fraternity. After a video of the incident was published the SAE chapter was closed and two of its members expelled. Alumni of the local chapter have suggested they may take legal action against the university. ==Incidents recorded on video== On March 7, 2015, videos were recorded while fraternity members and their dates were riding on a chartered bus to an event celebrating the national organization's Founder's Day. In the video the students are heard singing a chant to the tune of "If You're Happy and You Know It". The chant begins with the refrain, "There will never be a nigger in SΑΕ", which is followed by the lyrics, "You can hang him from a tree, but he'll never sign with me", followed again by the refrain.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Fraternity Caught on Video Singing Racist Song )〕 The video of the incident was reported on by ''The Oklahoma Daily'' on Sunday March 8, and also posted online by student group OU Unheard. An additional video emerged showing the fraternity's house mother, Beauton Gilbow, using a racial slur while singing along to a rap song at the fraternity in 2013. Gilbow later stated that she was singing along at the time to rapper Trinidad James' song "All Gold Everything", which heavily uses the same racial pejorative, and apologized for any offense. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2015 University of Oklahoma Sigma Alpha Epsilon racism incident」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
