One young man at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor has taken taking a knee quite a bit further.

Graduate student Dana Greene, Jr. spent more than 20 hours on his knees on the pavement, facing a flag at the “block M” on the campus Diag, beginning at 7 a.m. on Monday. “If got to kneel until my knees bleed, then that’s what I’m going to do,” he told MLive. “I am doing this for every student on this campus that has ever felt like they didn’t belong here.”

Mr. Greene warned some indulgences for his act of contrition in Social Justice Warrior heaven.

So...is he kneeling in support of White, Christian, Males? Because that's the group most despised and put upon by academia today.

Kneeling in submission to their superiors - I can live with that.

This whole thing is silly and stupid. To think the media not to mention politicians are focusing on this irrelevant issue when there are so many real tragedies as well as good Samaritan gestures across America to focus on.

As I recall “college” it was a lot of hard work and I was more than happy to graduate and get the heck outta there. It was not a welcoming, cushy safe space.

I hope the university didn’t make him do the whole 20 hours without a therapy puppy. I don’t see any puppies in the pictures but hopefully the pictures were just taken before the puppies arrived. /sarc

If black lives matter then blacks need to start acting like it. Unwed mothers, crime rate & their culture suggest otherwise. Of course for something to matter you must take responsibility.

“I am doing this for every student on this campus that has ever felt like they didn’t belong here.”

So quit then. No one is forcing him to be there. And just how are other students going to benefit by him kneeling there? I'd say he's too dumb for college but he certainly does fit right in these days. Leftist moron-- one of too many.
