I'm guessing he inspired her to open a school for wayward kids.

If in fact it was the black people getting up out of their seats and leaving how possibly is it considered racist for the the lady to simply say what she's seeing?
If I walked into Alex Box during an LSU game and said loudly "Wow. Look at all these white people!" Wouldn't that be in poor taste?

The son's facebook page must have the lowest security settings too. Lot's of good commentary.

She was genuinely concerned about where the black people were heading. Context and tone aren't things.

What's less shocking ? A racist white person from Georgia? Or the amount of up votes in this thread? Or the lack of movement by the white people in the crowd?
Any decent person would have gotten up and left that ceremony

The media is going to paint this as some premier private academy in suburban Atlanta...just watch.

I saw a lot of movement from the white crowd. The black crowd filled the center aisle so quickly that most of the white people appeared to be waiting. Did you miss the shock from every white person in frame?

Being Shocked doesn't mean anything if you sit there through it; that's a sign of agreement IMO.
I did see some folks leave but not nearly enough. They should have been up and out just as quickly as the black folks.

Did you see the whole video to know if they walked out or not?

The only group that sat through it was a group of teenage girls, and they were gathering their shite at the end. They should have ran out with a mob of angry black folks? That typically ends well.

You can't honestly fault people for not instantly jumping out of their seats and making a mad dash for the door, people have their own ways of reacting and most likely most just didn't really know what to do given the circumstances.

So if the black people were leaving she can't call them out?
Posted on 5/9/15 at 11:21 pm to Montezuma
I don't know what all the controversy is about.
To me, she looks like the world's greatest prognosticator.
"Look who's leaving...the Black people".
POOF! All the Black people start leaving.
Amazing.

No problem with anyone leaving but for you to say someone had a resposibility to leave does not make sense.
Did you comment on the Boston professor?

She can and she did. What's the problem? People (especially the people that keep her lights on) are free to respond. I genuinely don't understand the motivation to defend her. She made an arse of herself.

Fair enough, point taken. There is a truth to it. But if white folks want to continue to make racial/social progress, it starts there by showing solidarity to their fellow citizens / neighborhoods.
