 More than 75 universities now host blacks-only graduation ceremonies
Drew Van Voorhis - San Diego State University •May 16, 2019


This month and next dozens of universities across the nation, from private top-tier schools to public state institutions, will host segregated graduation ceremonies and celebrations for their black graduates.

These supplementary ceremonies are voluntary and are offered in addition to the universities’ regular graduations. Sometimes they’re co-hosted by black campus resource centers and various academic departments. They serve to give extra honors and recognition to black students earning their degrees.

So, the ideal of a color blind, integrated society is pretty much dead. I wish they would make up their minds.

Of course, the Left’s palpable lack of a mind precludes that from happening.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

I hope they have separate bathrooms and drinking fountains, too.

Because that's what MLK paid his life fighting for, right?  :shrug:

No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions. If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people."    -Calvin Coolidge
