Canada’s University of Waterloo Offers Blacks-Only Swim Hour
Breitbart ^ | 02/02/2024 | THOMAS D. WILLIAMS, PH.D.

Posted on 02/02/2024 8:33:58 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

The University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada, has launched a segregated pool activity called “Black Folx Swim,” which expressly excludes participation by non-black swimmers.

“The aim is to get more Black Folx into a space where they haven’t always been welcomed, while providing them the opportunity to learn swimming skills,” the school’s website states.

Swimming lessons are taught exclusively by “experienced black swimmers/instructors,” the site adds, noting that the segregated pool time “is dedicated to building a better relationship with water for the Black community.”

Blacks can't swim

Oh, I dunno.

The underwater events seem to be pretty popular.

”The aim is to get more Black Folx into a space where they haven’t always been welcomed,”

Maybe they’re just not that interested in swimming, but hey, let’s just assume it’s racism, and “fix” it with more racism.

“I qual’d for PJ Indoc in the USAF. Every single PJ I ever met was white.”

That was back in the old days when there wasn’t bonus points for not being male or white.

My very racist theory is that white people are more intelligent, more independent, and more aggressive than the elites want. The elites want to “replace” whites with groups that are easier to control.

Everyone who had an A-A friend growing up knows why this will be under-subscribed.

I’m OK with as long as there’s “whites-only” swim hours.

Separate but equal, y’know.

Folx ??

Well, that sent me to Merriam-Webster.

Since "Blacks" are already mentioned in the title, there must be more to it than the obvious - "Folx is especially used to signal the inclusion of groups commonly marginalized, such as the LGBTQ community."

Those clever Canadians, one learns something every day.

Just so frauds don’t sneak in, make everyone take a blood test. You know, like the Nuremberg laws...

Imagine if you will, a White’s only swim hour.

Absurdities aplenty these days…

We called them “rocks” in USN boot camp for obvious reasons.


Because of body density, blacks tend to sink even with a lung full of air, which makes swimming successfully much more difficult for them. ‘Opportunities to swim’ are riskier for them and they wisely tend to avoid it. It’s not racism just Archimedes’ Principle.

Obama’s chef had had lessons and pool time, yet still drowned.

Blacks can’t swim. That’s why it’s one of my favorite things to do.

Oh, I dunno. My former personal trainer in NYC is a 6'8" black competitive swimmer. And black belt in karate. And a genuine gold plated sweetie pie.

So, how much of your skin needs to be black before you're allowed to use the pool?

Are you more like sweet milk chocolate, or bittersweet dark chocolate?
