This Is Racism, No Whites Allowed Assembly At Chicago Area High School If you looked around, you would think that America had gone back in history. According to reports, a Chicago area high school just crossed the line when they organized a NO WHITES ALLOWED school assembly. Nathaniel Rouse, principal of River Forest and Oak Park High School in Illinois, has come under serious fire for organizing a Black Lives Matter event that excluded white students. The white parents reported that their students were turned away when they tried to attend the Black Lives Matter event, the Chicago Tribune reports. The parents said they were offended that in a school and community that prides itself on diversity and inclusion that students who wanted to attend would be excluded. The hypocrisy in the move is pretty remarkable here, and Rouse did not back down in a statement he made to the public. First and foremost, this is not meant to give a connotation that we were trying to be exclusive, principal Rouse commented. I found it has been far easier for me to talk about my experiences with racism with individuals that look like me. I still struggle myself with talking about my experiences with people who dont look like me. Andthat is supposedly not racist? The school stated that further conversations among and across other racial affinity groups will take place in the coming month. What do you think? Is this absolutely unacceptable?
