A set of rules for white people at a vigil for Michael Brown in Canada has sparked controversy with critics accusing organizers of promoting segregation.

'Non black allies' were told to 'refrain from taking up space in all ways possible' and 'never be at the centre of anything' at the event in Toronto on November 25.

The Facebook page also advised white demonstrators to 'refrain from speaking to the media' and 'stand behind black folks or between us and the police'.

Yes, but will the non-people-of-color learn a lesson from this?

Probably not...

Certainly not the type of non-white people that will attend that rally in the first place.

Very creepy; didn’t know black Canucks were victims as well. I’m glad I don’t have to learn the “black protest etiquette”; couldn’t imagine being that closed to a horde.

Should that not read “They are less likely to arrest you”? Maybe they should let the white people type up the instructions?

Hilarious!

This is OUR protest! Non blacks don’t get to play!

How juvenile can you get?

So much for solidarity, AND the post racial society we were promised back in 2008...

Tell me this whole thing isn’t just more political theater stage-managed by the White Hut.

It may take multiple “muggings” for reality to set in.

Does that mean the blacks that have white in them.As for me I would never go to a thugs memorial..Play all this stuff out and keep it going..Mama Brown said at the first interview she was writing a book and selling rights for a movie..As long as this crap is still going the thugs mama will make millions..So whites do not buy anything with this thugs name on it..She will try to sell action figures next.

Since you’re not taking up space and not speaking, please stop breathing as well.

I guess at school, all the black people were ‘taking up space’.
