In our newest installment of "Leftism likes to be like the worst racists of the past" we have universities starting up segregated graduations. Separate but equal, right folks? And, remember, this isn't "fringe". These are our educational institutions. That's mainstream left, and they have thousands of kids going through their halls being indoctrinated into this bullshit. This is what pops out of the Trojan Horse that is CRT. They say it means just teaching history but what they actually teach is division and race essentialism (new name for just being racist).


Universities are increasingly offering graduation events focused on participants’ identities and segregated by race, ethnicity, sexual orientation and even income, according to a report by a conservative education publication.

Campus Reform, which is published by the Leadership Institute in Arlington, Virginia, reported last week that more than three dozen colleges and universities are holding graduation events this summer to recognize groups based on race, gender and sexual orientation.

Columbia University, Harvard University, Ohio State University, Illinois State University and the University of Texas at Austin are among those offering special ceremonies for Black graduates.

Yale University, Dartmouth College and the University of Michigan will hold special ceremonies for Asian and American Indian graduates.

Other schools are hosting special graduations to recognize LGBTQ, first-generation immigrants, women and low-income students.

“It stokes division by allowing identity politics to form the basis of how students see themselves as undergraduates, graduates and alumni,” said Peter Wood, president of the conservative National Association of Scholars.
 
Great. So all that fighting to end Jim Crow...and some dinkbrain wants to bring it back for....what? To give BIPOCs & LGBTs a safe space?

It really isnt the same as segregation.

Segregation was designed to form an apartheid state where wealthy white people could engage in economic warfare against black people.

This stuff is similar to

In an email to FactCheck.org, a university spokesperson said, “The smaller celebratory events held for particular communities are in addition to, not instead of, the main Commencement and Class Day graduation ceremonies. In most instances, these smaller, multicultural gatherings evolved from ceremonies originally created by alumni and students. The gatherings are voluntary, open to every student who wants to participate, and have become a highly anticipated and meaningful part of the Columbia graduation experience.“

These are usually IN ADDITION TO general commencement ceremonies, not separate from. :D

Did you check to see if these were in addition to general ceremonies?
 
If certain groups want safe zones, that's fine.

It's a win-win for everyone.

Each group gets to associate with like-minded folks.

Marxism in action...to destroy a country divide its people.

Can you see what government in America is doing to those groups? It doesn't surprise me that some groups would prefer not to have others with them. Are there people asking to be a part of those graduations and being denied access?

"Columbia University will supplement its regular 2021 graduation ceremony with multicultural ceremonies for members of the Latinx, Asian, Black and other student communities who want to participate. Social media users are misrepresenting these voluntary ceremonies as “segregation.”
 
If there was an additional, special, and separate segregated graduation ceremony for whites, the left would be calling them Klan rallies.

This is their double standard and hypocrisy. The left don't want equality, and they will never allow racism to end.

More hair on fire bullshit from the far right-wing.

Have you not gone to college? This is not a new thing. Individual schools related to majors, organizations, and clubs at colleges often hold separate graduations and ceremonies for seniors. All students are invited to a group graduation.

As long as kids aren't forced to attend and the group doesn't exclude someone because of race or gender, what's the big deal?

Sadly, the "big deal" is what one may read in this thread with the attempts by certain commenters to create images that don't reflect reality - all in order to create for other gullible readers "proof" that those wacky librul academics really and truly want to bring back the Good Ol' Days but this time those others will be in charge and not the real (white) Americans.

Tell me what America is doing to those groups. Further, tell me how there is an relation between whatever imagined attack by the government and random white kids. This will be interesting.

We know radical leftists at college have been pushing racial essentialism and segregation for a while now. This is just another example. That you think it's not worthy of "hair on fire" says more about you than those calling it out for the racist bullshit that it is.

Strawman. They don't want to bring back the "Good 'Ol Days" in the racist manner that you're using that term. They are just so ****ing nuts and radical that they're going full racist. Also, there is no need to put "s around "proof". It actually IS proof that liberals are ****ing nuts.
 
Did you check to see if these were in addition to general ceremonies?
Did you check were they are sponsoring special events for groups of people based on race? I mean, this is what you want to support?

You were suckered by the Washington Times into believing that separate ceremonies and graduations are new woke shenanigans. They are not. The better part of valor would be to admit your mistake.

Rofl...denying reality? Yes, they are. They are another graduation ceremony that is specially for certain groups, and only for certain groups, based on race. The reality of it, and this is what someone who is a racist leftist like you can't understand, it could be a university-sponsored knitting club who's membership is based on race would still be just as bad.

LOL. I will post more slowly, perhaps it will help with understanding.

Separate ... graduations ... and ... ceremonies .. are ... not ... new.

IF people are forced to attend or people are excluded from attending because of race or gender, that would be a problem.

Until that is proven, untwist the knickers. I'm sure a new FRW outrage of the day will pop up soon.

They're dragging this pointless cause out of the mothballs again.
 
Yeah yeah. And black history month is racist, because anything that celebrates the accomplishments of an historically repressed race of people is therefore racist against whites.

That's not an apt analogy. An apt analogy would be an event that celebrates the accomplishments of a minority community that is open to every student, but where only minority speakers are invited to speak. Because that is the purpose of the event: to celebrate the accomplishments of minorities.

No, your analogy isn't better than mine, and even then your analogy is still racist.
