I looked at that picture and wondered if taken in context it's okay. In West Point yearbook photos, sometimes there will be casual pictures of groups, not just formal ones. I'm wondering if these girls are part of a group. They seem to be wearing confederate uniforms. It might have be a "you've come a long way" statement and the black power salute from those Mexico City games (a long time ago) may not have the meaning to them that it does to us.

I agree with you. They made a politically incorrect statement that offended some people. Maybe we should ALL be less offended about freedom of expression.

If, instead, it were a "black lives matter" sign, I'd be offended. All lives matter, and that whole movement is racist and deranged.

From what I recall, at one time the Dress Uniform Blouse was a powder gray, with white trousers and Black Chevrons where applicable—

which could be construed as ‘Confederate Uniforms’
