    Oh come on. You’re going to deny them 3 seconds of ceremonial behaviour at a graduation CEREMONY? Never been to a graduation ceremony where at least a few kids didn’t dance or strut or do a cartwheel. For many young adults, graduation is their biggest achievement and the happiest day of their lives. There are thousands of videos on UA-cam from Universities across the world with graduates doing all sorts of crazy celebrations, usually receiving friendly reactions from crowd and the academic staff present.

    I’m honestly not going to make a racial issue out of this...I’ll just comment by saying...college graduation for most people is different than highschool or grade school...because YOU freaking pay for it...I graduated from Rutgers University and I paid my way through college...unfortunately my parents were not in a financial situation to do so...More importantly the University of Florida is a notorious party school...that coupled with the fact that most of these students paid their way through school and will continue to pay for the foreseeable future...let them celebrate however they see fit as long as it’s not excessive.

    @The Young Turks I'm a student at UF, and I was at the ceremony because my roommate was graduating, I agree that it was too aggressive, but I don't think it was a racial thing. At least not consciously. The backflip guy WAS ushered off of the stage, so it's important to recognize that.
    The news story makes it out to be more violent and racial than it actually was. (And I'm not trying to say that it was okay, because it definitely wasn't. I'm just saying that it is being twisted for the story). Pretty much everyone who slowed down or paused on the stage was ushered off, and I think it was because they were concerned about time or something. The people working at this particular graduation ceremony handled it poorly. this was the graduation ceremony for the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, which is one ceremony out of many that took place over the whole weekend. The other ceremonies went smoothly without incident, so this isn't representative of UF, but rather those men who were working.

      @@ambercolbert I feel like you didn't really read my comments. They weren't treating white people differently, the people running that ceremony were just shitty. I'm definitely not trying to defend them, I was just giving my perspective as someone who was there and saw the whole thing unfold, because it's clear that TYT was relying on videos and select testimonies from graduating students.
      Im sure many of those guys who put their hands on students have implicit biases, since literally everyone does, and I won't deny that I do as well, although I'm a BLM ally who actively tries my best to listen to the black community.
      This graduation ceremony was a dumster fire and was ruined for many many people due to those worker's actions. I dont believe they were racially motivated, but that doesn't take away from how shitty they were.

But here on UA-cam, I can't find a video of any white kid being moved off the stage. No where. Not even from someone in the crowd. I just don't see the issue here, so long as the dance steps are moving to exit, stage left.
      That said, what I would like to see, at least, is the same staff member reacting to the backfliping kid. Maybe he wanted to shuffle him off, but stopping a backflip just gets youre teeth kicked out.

  • @Diana-Artemis09
    @Diana-Artemis09 6 років тому +7

    They're right. You never touch anyone. That is assault whether it's subconsciously racially motivated or not. We see this at so many graduation's and it's rude, but you NEVER put your hands on anyone. If it was racially motivated, then we need to have more evidence, especially if there were thousands of people who could've been recording the event. Usually, some of these schools record the whole commencement ceremony. A pattern needs to be shown to determine misconduct by a staff member or many staff members. If it were me, I'd consider pressing charges against the person/people and maybe even the school, even if what I did is socially inappropriate, your graduation is supposed to be a "safe" place. If a person brought a gun and started using it, we wouldn't tolerate such violence. Putting your hands on anyone unprovoked is violent. The person or people doing this were wrong for doing so to the graduating students, no matter their color. Idk when this event occurred, but it's a lesson in how things should/shouldn't be handled. Social justice is not the same as criminal justice. We can't allow this just because some people decided to break a socially inappropriate rule. Schools can write whatever guidelines they want, but they can NEVER do what was done here to enforce adherence to it. If they earned the right to be on the stage, they have the right to walk, run, backflip or whatever clever thing they come up with, although it's VERY rude, it's not a crime. Even making moves across the stage has become a huge phenomenon and is almost a right of way and expected. Rules are broken, but we should never assault anyone.

    Cross the stage quickly and in a dignified, respectful way, no matter what "Race" you are. These graduation ceremonies are endless with so many graduates. Celebrate afterwards with family and friends and don´t waste everyone else´s time. Seeing you cross the stage proves that you earned your degree and you are being honored for it. BTW, I am African-American but I have no bias here. All students should be advised as to how to behave at a graduation. Nevertheless, ushers are guilty of biased conduct if they only manhandled the Black students. The University has some explaining and training to do!

Nobody should be dancing, regardless of race. "you shouldn't man handle anybody' Okay I'll just run out into the middle of a sports game, or during a press conference.. No, you CAN man handle people, it was pretty obvious they were not allowed to dance, they literally watched the person infront of them dancing, and being dragged off, then did the exact same thing.
    Again, this just shows black people dancing. This isn't a very scientific experiment.

    If they did it to all the kids, I would say this is just policing student behavior during a school event. But it wasn't. They only did this to Black students. That is exactly what racism is.

      Phyllis Masters there is video of the same thing happening to white students (CBS is where I saw it), it just, strangely, got cut out of all the racist coverage, which is... interesting...

    I wouldn't say it's abuse, but it is rude and unfair to the students. It is racist? Idk, probably. Why did they only target black people?

      They didn't. Watch CBS' video on this. They showed the white people that also got pulled off stage. Yes, inappropriate. No, not racist. TYT cut the white people out to make the story fit their narrative of racism.
