President Biden applauded a call for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip Sunday while attending the commencement of Morehouse College in Atlanta on Sunday.

Valedictorian Deangelo Fletcher, who spoke before Biden’s commencement address, stopped short of any direct rebuke of the president but called for an “immediate and a permanent ceasefire.”

“It is only right for the class of 2024 to utilize any platform provided to stand in solidarity with peace and justice,” Fletcher said while evoking the activism of Morehouse alumnus Martin Luther King Jr.

Somebody should ask Biden where he is and watch him try and figure it out while crapping in his diaper.

As Malcolm X clearly said the white liberals are just creating black pawns to use to destroy their own communities.Eric Adams will destroy Harlem and give it over to the immigrants bit by bit. Every black city in the US with be flooded with newcomers thanks to the black pawns of the Democratic Party

Must be where Lindsey Graham learned it from.

Biden’s plan to address Morehouse grads met with resistance by the college of Black students.

They didnt want Biden.

Biden was so afraid of saying the wrong thing, he sent an aide
there beforehand to find out what the grads wanted to hear.

Some of the resistance is said to be Biden’s detested position on Israel.

Trump’s surging Black backing is driven by his own more personal policies.
