I attend a predominantly white university that didn't even have it's first black graduate until 1965
. There are about 1,000 black folks on campus, so you would think they all came out to support the program yesterday, right? Y'all, it was pitiful. I was looking around like "what is wrong with this picture"? I digress...
Anyway, we had a candlelight march around campus which convened at a nearby chapel. There we had a program with a few choirs, a couple of praise dancers and a DYNAMIC sermon from a minister who came in from Princeton. I enjoyed it immensely... I just wish more of us would have come out.
