Oak Park and River Forest High School in Oak Park, Illinois held a Black Lives Matter assembly last week, but banned anyone who was not African American from attending. Oak Park is just outside of Chicago.
White students who tried to attend were physically barred from entering the auditorium where the meeting was taking place. Parents of these students said that their children were turned away when they tried to enter.
However, Principal Nathaniel Rouse, who organized the event and is black, is not backing down from his decision to exclude other races. Not only that, but by banning whites, he does not feel that he was being exclusive.
First and foremost, this is not meant to give a connotation that we were trying to be exclusive, he said, responding to parents concerns.
The event was pushed for by students who were dismayed by the death of Michael Brown last year, despite the fact that the Justice Department and grand jury proved that Brown assaulted a police office.
I credit them (the students) with giving me the push I needed to follow my heart and do something different for our school, Rouse said.
Rouse felt that, in the end, black students would not have been able to express themselves with judgmental white people attending.

Hmmmm. So then I can assume he’d have no problem with a whites-only assembly?

Ahh, the black privilege of being able to exclude other races and not be called racist.

I find it disgusting that the Kenyan is able to sleaze his way through eight years in the White House by distracting Americans with the “racism” show. What a pig.

Apparently the principal doesn’t know what “public” means...as in Public School.
I would definitely not let this go if I lived there.
If they had rented a private hall and excluded whites.....no problem.

Racist hatemonger Nathaniel Rouse and his HS administration should be put on the suspected terrorist list as well as the no-fly list. Rouse should also be investigated under RICO.

My kid is being taught that he’s a good as anyone else and that anyone who thinks they are better can go straight to hell and that he’ll assist them if they want to force the issue. To HELL with Black bigots.
