i was around during the fifties and sixties racial disturbances in which they wanted no segregation and how i see this crap;
A university in Michigan has announced that it will host five smaller graduation celebrations that separate students by race, sexuality and gender identity, in addition to the university’s larger commencement ceremony with all of its students.
Grand Valley State University (GVSU), the third- and fourth-largest tertiary educational institution in Michigan by undergraduate population and overall enrollment, respectively, announced last month its plan to have separate ceremonies for Black, Asian, Hispanic or “Latinx,” Native American and so-called LGBTQIA+ students.
GVSU described the graduation ceremony for so-called “Latino/a/x students” as “an opportunity to come together and acknowledge [Hispanic American] accomplishments in the spirit of traditions of culture.”
Similarly, the GVSU described the graduation celebration solely for Black students as an avenue to celebrate all “that is representative of Black, African American and African tradition, heritage, culture and legacy.”
Ceremonies solely for Black students and Native American students have been ongoing for several years. The ceremony for the former has been held since 2016, and the latter ceremony is known as the annual “Native American Graduation Feast.”........more..........
