And while Trump was president? I'm surprised they are willing to admit this.

Today I learned that diving instructors won’t teach black people how to scuba dive.

Civil Rights Act of 1964 made racial segregation in public accommodations illegal. That’s 60+ years ago. Sure - some clubs became private to work around it, but it ended decades ago.

Tiger Woods has been playing golf for 40 years now.

So you tell me, what year is it?

I'm glad to see NBC New is finally acknowledging that not doing activities because you consider them "too white" is systemic racism.

It could be any year from 1935 to 2025. Leftists will never let Hitler die. They see him in every person left of Marx.

Who thinks that there's a sizable amount of black people wanting to scuba dive? And that there's a anyone stopping them because of race? Ridiculous.

No one has stopped a black person from playing golf, hiking, or scuba diving in at least 60 years.
Literally a lame excuse to blame racism as to why blacks aren't doing these activities.

Makes no sense. Who was stopping black people from purchasing land, building their own golf courses, and creating private black golf clubs?

The answer is black people. Black people themselves were stopping black people from doing this.

No, it certainly wasn’t racism. Buoyancy, perhaps.

Can’t wait until they bring up that LSU just shut down the tailgating location for black organizations. Without mentioning that motherfrickers got shot there.

Plus Tiger Woods broke the barrier, not by force, not by judicial fiat, but just by basic common sense.

It makes no economic or social sense to discriminate against the baddest arse golfer since Nicklaus.

Racism eventually destroys itself because its illogical

Someone PLEASE explain systemic racism to me.
Nevermind, NBC is using it therefore I know it’s another lie.

Systemic racism is a manifestation of racists!

If blacks want to do anything whites want to do, they’ve been able to do so for a WHILE. No reason to stir up a hornet nest.

Back during Covid, they also said that National Parks (i.e. Yellowstone, ) were racists too because blacks did not go there. Yet no one was stopping them from going.

My hometown in rural GA had a public course when I was a kid in the 70s, and blacks were free to use it, and did.
