Virginia Tech offered ten separate graduation ceremonies this year for different student groups based on identity.

Virginia Tech hosted ten separate graduation ceremonies for students based on their identity. In May, the university held separate ceremonies for Black, Asian, Latino, Muslim, and LGBTQ students. Breitbart News reported in May that many American colleges offer separate graduation ceremonies for Black students.

The College Fix reported this week that Virginia Tech is one of many universities that have adopted separate ceremonies for student groups based on identity. For example, The Donning of Kente Ceremony is held to commemorate the graduation of Black and African American students.

Why not Italians?

I mean, we’re NOT Italians, we’re Americans whose recent ancestors came to this great country.

But if EVERYONE’S gonna do it.

Do it for EVERY SINGLE white ethnicity there is.

The left wants to turn the country into warring groups, each one hating the other.

Ah segregation.

It’s interesting to watch the Democrats return the country to 300 years ago while accusing everyone else of trying to return the country to 300 years ago.

Anywho, carry on, DNCKKK.

“The Donning of Kente Ceremony”.

Maybe they do it as that ceremony is pathetic and it needs to be hidden.

OK ... THIS'LL get me in trouble ......

The very first thought I had when I read the headline was ... OO OO that smell.

I know, that was a Skynard tune about Dennis after he almost killed himself in a car crash, but the sentiment (to me) is apropos.

Homosexual men have to constantly wash and slather stink pretty on because what they do .... smells bad.

Anyone that has been in any foreign country will concur that the country has it's own .... smell.

People of a nationality not claiming to be American that congregate .... have a smell.


And so ..... THIS'LL get me in trouble ......

oo oo that smell.

How nice, minorities and activists fought hard for integrated schools and they have it.

Now they want segregated graduations. Idiots all.

Oh the irony. Separate but equal, I suppose.

Twas “Fee for Service” - tip included. You owe them nothing, and if you give them something they will only squander it on liberal nonsense.

Recall that "separate but equal" was thrown out years ago, try it in a manner that doesn't advance the lib agenda and get slapped down.

"Melting Pot" my ass, divide and conquer!

Virginia Tech is racist.

There are 60 genders, not just 10.
