The Blackout looks silly to me, too, but painting a Juneteenth neighborhood celebration as OMG actual segregation just makes you look intellectually dishonest.

Blackout Schedule
3:00pm Sound Healing - Naa Akua
4:30pm Black Imagination- Natasha Marin
6:00pm Dance Party - DJ Dark_Wiley
8:00pm Blackout After Party

The human chain of white people 'enforcing' it... is not great.

It also does not exist in a vacuum. We haven't missed the demands for black spaces on campus and black dorms in the last few years.

At least they are attacking senators now instead of random people. That's progress.

Wikipedia says it was orb down by vandals. That’s not very progressive of them.
