Yes but isn't the promotion of it in school, promoting racism

Well, to be fair, all proms in your school are whites only by default

I do agree that the party itself is completly legal, but if the school puts up or allows people to put up promotional banners or wear promotional shirts then it could be argued that they are providing a hostile environ for blacks and so are in part denying their education, in which case free speech does not apply.

Maybe those whites are scared and think they need a separate prom to practice dancing before they can prom wth the blacks.
Racism is a quite natural fear of what's different and unfamiliar. We all have it in us, I think it's scientifically proven that racism is genetical. [/B]

Blacks bring racism on themselves by trying to stay apart? Yikes. So if you hang out with your white friends that's just normal but if black people hang out with their black friends who they grew up with or who grew up in a culture/environment they're familiar with and feel at ease in that's inviting racism? Why isn't it inviting racism if you don't go out of your way to join them?

I read the article twice, doesn't it say they also held an all-black prom?
Are they racist also?
It says they are deeply devided on the issue, hardly a hotbed of clan activity.
Looks like a petty attempt to label people to me.
