Gibson’s Family Bakery Finally Receives Payout from Private Liberal Arts College that Attempted to Smear it as “Racist”

I have to say… nothing gets me in the Christmas spirit like some not-so-swift monetary justice…

Especially when it’s a payout coming from a bunch of groveling progressive hacks. That definitely sweetens the pot.

From The College Fix:

Gibson’s Family bakery has received its $36.6 million damages payment from Oberlin College after the liberal school in Ohio worked with students to protest and smear the small business as racist.

“We can confirm that all funds have been disbursed and that the family is continuing with the process of rebuilding Gibson’s Bakery for the next generations,” family attorney Brandon McHugh told WKYC.com.

The payment caps a six-year story that goes back to November 2016, when Allyn Gibson chased out of the store several black individuals who stole wine.

The Fix previously reported:

Despite the students’ admissions of guilt, campus racial grievance groups took action to harm the bakery. Student groups accused Gibson’s of having racially profiled the three students and pushed Oberlin to sever all ties with the bakery, which had supplied its cafeterias with food.

Soon, the Oberlin Student Senate passed a resolution stating Gibson’s “had a history of racial profiling and discriminatory treatment.” Dean of Students Meredith Raimondo joined the demonstrations, using a bullhorn to shout that the Gibsons were “racist.”

With Oberlin faculty joining in the push to sever ties with the bakery, the college then suspended its ties with Gibson’s between November 14, 2016 and January 30, 2017.

Justice is a dish best served lukewarm and six years afterwards, I suppose…

I love that Oberlin was forced to cough up millions. What they did was despicable, but yet, not at all surprising.

They sold themselves out to appease their “woe is me” student body. The real question is whether they took the time to look into the facts of the case before they did so…

My best guess is a hard NO, as all rationality in these types of situations has dissipated, but I could be wrong…

Maybe this will serve as a warning for those who have a tendency of jumping to conclusions. I doubt it, but it theoretically could happen…

Just remember boys and girls… you always end up paying more for woke policies.

That is all…
