Rally against racism at Harvard University

This page now includes photos of me inside the Harvard Yard and photos of me taken outside Radcliffe, where Harvard University held a "black" graduation ceremony in 2018 and 2019.  They're at the very bottom of the page.

The protest that is mentioned on this page happened in 2017, 2018, and it is being organized for 2019 also.  Updates are at the bottom of this page.

The theory of a protest against Harvard University's one-race-only graduation ceremony is on this page.

Rally against racial discrimination!!

The Boston Chapter of the American Racial Equality Committee will hold an anti-discrimination rally in Holmes Field in front of Langdell Hall, inside the Harvard Yard, Tuesday, May 23rd, 11:00am.

Protest against Harvard's "black people only" graduation ceremony!

Confirmation of the date, time, and place of this racist event on Instagram.

This is what racial discrimination and segregation looks like !!

This happened less than a century ago. Harvard wants to bring it back!! Say NO to Harvard's segregation!!!

Don't let Harvard continue their segregation! Say NO to segregated graduation ceremonies!!

Harvard says that their graduation ceremony is for

These are the only white people that I've ever seen, and I was born a long time ago.

Rally Against Segregation! Harvard University In front of Langdell Hall (Holmes Field)

Protest Rally, May 23, 2017, 11:00am

Tell Harvard that we are the same!!

Tell them that school segregation ended in the 1950s!!!

Harvard University says

only black people can be in our graduation ceremony on May 23rd.

"The most unpleasant thing was the constant presence of white people." Some of Harvard's students are so racist, they STILL can't stand seeing or smelling white people!!! (Their own definition, of course.)

Harvard only did one thing right.
They shut down the website of their Black Students Association.

These two photos were taken May 23, 2017, during my protest of a very racist event at Harvard University.  My shirt was custom-made, and about half of the racists who were at the "black people only" graduation ceremony saw it, because I walked, backwards, up both of the side aisles at the ceremony.  The shirt says, "No racism at Harvard", and it's an appropriate protest slogan for a "black people only" graduation ceremony at Harvard University.

October 2, 2017 update

This is the first paragraph of a June 14, 2017 New York Times story.  The link was included in their story.

Drew Gilpin Faust, the first woman to be Harvard’s president, announced on Wednesday that she would step down next year after 11 years of service, a period in which she oversaw ambitious fund-raising, expansion of academic programs and increases in student and faculty diversity.

The story of her resignation is verified by this story, published the same day in the Boston Herald, this story, also published the same day in the Harvard Crimson, and by this story, published June 29, 2018 in the Harvard Gazette.

She also oversaw and thus allowed a racist graduation ceremony, which was one of the factors in her forced resignation.

May 8, 2018 update

Harvard University has scheduled another racist graduation ceremony.  I have already announced on Twitter that I will be there, wearing the same shirt as in the photo above.  The location of this racist event has changed from the Harvard Yard to the Radcliffe Yard.  The date is scheduled for Tuesday, May 22, 2018.

May 22, 2018 update

Harvard University held another racist "black graduation ceremony" today. I wore this shirt while I walked in front of the ceremony, in progress.  I made sure that every so-called "black" graduate saw the words on the shirt. Later that same day, I saw the Harvard President with some graduates, wearing their gowns.  I told her, to her face, that a "black graduation ceremony" was inherently racist. If Harvard University holds another inherently racist event next year, I'll be back.

May 17, 2019 update

Harvard University is scheduled to hold another racist black graduation ceremony on Tuesday, May 28nd. Unless they cancel it, I will wear this shirt while I walk in front of the ceremony, in progress.  I will make sure that every so-called "black" graduate sees the words on the shirt.

The former President of Harvard University wouldn't allow a "white graduation ceremony" on her campus, but she did allow a "black graduation ceremony".  Twice.

The former President of Harvard University was a racist.  Twice.

Unless Harvard cancels their "Black Graduation Ceremony", the current President of Harvard University will be continuing a racist policy.

May 28, 2019 update

Harvard University held another racist graduation ceremony today.  I was there, at Radcliffe College, where the ceremony was scheduled to be held. I walked among the racists whose presence showed their approval of Harvard's racism.  I walked in front of the first row of seats, showing the people in those seats how racist they were. This photo was taken just outside the location of the ceremony.

If Harvard University holds another one-race-only graduation ceremony next year, I will be back, wearing the same shirt, wherever and whenever it is held.
