The University of California Berkeley has found itself at the center of accusations that it has set Civil Rights back 60 years after hosting a black-only graduation service this month.
The school had announced in March that it was planning the segregated, black-only graduation event for this month which was “open to all majors,” but not to all races.
“The Department of African American Studies plans on hosting our annual Black Graduation ceremony, which is open to all majors and degree programs across the campus,” the school’s announcement read.
The ceremony was held last Saturday, on May 20 at Zellerbach Hall.
On the livestreamed video for the event, a description read, “Black Graduation is an annual, campus-wide ceremony that celebrates all Black/African/African American identifying students upon completion of their undergraduate, master’s, Ph.D., J.D., and/or professional degree programs.”
Hey White folks………………try that one! See what happens!
ever listen to how they whoop and hollar like they never been there before.
dont see a problem with this as long as other races get there own private ceremony too!
This is just a clever way for Berkeley, the hippie haven, to recast itself as a HBCU, which we now know is the pinnacle of scholarship and academic rigor.
