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.

#BlackPrivilege taking place, there.
Given the extraordinary percent of black babies being born into single-parent or unmarried households, these people would better serve their community by holding a “Black Wives Matter” assembly.
Obama, Holder and their followers have moved the US back towards segregation in giant steps.
If that kind of discrimination is going to happen, whites should be entitled to have their own separate but equal schools.
#WhiteLivesDon’tMatter
An ENTIRE community needs to be smacked down, HARD. Like a spoiled brat child. But one of the parental units (50%) are too afraid to do anything.
I can now certainly understand why people believed in it, given what has happened since Obama became president.
No, witnesses ... can not allow white people to witness the blatant brainwashing of stupid black teens, making them useful cannon fodder for the coming race riots/wars.
Exactly. How do they expect to get their message across when they exclude those they hope to influence?
Also, see tag line.
Segregation seems that it would be a mainstay of racism. Isn’t it ironic that the liberals running minority driven politics move in that direction automatically?
Black Lies Matter
Hands Up Don’t Shoot - Didn’t Happen
ha you are funny. Ever work in an Arab dominated workplace?
I love how white people are automatically judgemental.
Ok, well, this white person is and I judge this principal and everyone in attendance white -hating racists
I suggest he swing by the English Department and ask them what the definition of "exclusive" is.
Not only do they use past injustices to justify present failures, but they turn their self-hate onto Whitey.
They will never be called on it. They have a free pass to hate.
Who cares if Blacks segregate!

Get used to it kids. That is your future. Diversity is NOT our greatest strength. The unity of being American is our greatest strength, and the diversity lie has destroyed that unity.
Black Lies Matter!
These racist pigs are sickening.
