Political correctness has gone so insane, liberals are demanding a return to segregation.
At Harvard University, postgraduate students receiving their degrees have announced plans to host a separate, private graduation ceremonies will be held for different races.
No, that’s not a joke. This liberal insanity is quite serious. It’s very real… and Harvard is not alone.
Graduating from Harvard is a difficult task, and the memory of that graduation will last a lifetime.
“For black graduate students in 2017, that memory will come in the form of an individual ceremony, the first such ceremony in recent history,” The Root reported Friday. “The event, which took nearly a year to plan and is scheduled for the morning of May 23, is an effort to acknowledge the struggles and resilience that black students have had to possess in order to thrive in higher education, an environment where minorities are typically underrepresented.”
More than 125 postgraduate students have signed up to attend the racially segregated ceremony — and raised over $27,000 for the ceremony and after-party.
Next year, organizers say they hope to expand the racial segregation to all students, not just postgraduate students.
“This is not about segregation,” Michael Huggins, an organizer that’s expecting to receive his Masters from Harvard’s prestigious Kennedy School. “It’s about fellowship and building a community. This is a chance to reaffirm for each other that we enter the work world with a network of supporters standing with us. We are all partners.”
Partners, that is, unless you’re not from the same race.
Sadly, Harvard isn’t the only college that is hosting a racially segregated graduation ceremony. The school has joined a growing list of colleges that pull the same stunt.
For example, BET.com notes that Stanford, Temple, and Columbia all host black-only graduation ceremonies.
Is this really something to celebrate?
