Morehouse College, a historically black all-men's school in Atlanta, will begin admitting transgender students in 2020, the school says

Atlanta Morehouse College, a historically black all-men's school in Atlanta, will begin admitting transgender students who identify as men in 2020, according to a news release from the school.

The new policy, known as the Gender Identity Admissions and Matriculation Policy, applies to all students who enroll in the private college by the fall 2020 semester. The announcement comes after Spelman College, a private historically black all-women's school in Atlanta, adopted a similar policy in 2017.

People seem confused about what historically black means. It means they let in a few non blacks but don’t use any form of merit to prevent it from becoming an all Asian school.

Dear Lord, some of you people seriously need to find a news source other than Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert. There are NO all BLACK colleges in the United States. HBCU does NOT stand for ALL Black Colleges and Universities that acronym would be ABCU. 🤦🏽‍♀️

To the white people trippin about Morehouse being a Black school, uh, remember we created our own schools bc y’all didn’t want us at yours! Sorry we didn’t close our damn doors when you’ll decided it was ok to take our money! Don’t pretend you’ve forgotten bc I’ll remind you!

More is good!

Identity politics equals fair and equal treatment for all. NO NOT Racism Racism Sexism sexism Preferential treatment == NOT FAIR TREATMENT FOR ALL

But only woman who identify as men . I wonder do they have to be black ?

Nice! This should've been done a long time ago, but still glad it's being done now.

Now that's progress in the USA.

Transgender? So what that mean men who identify as women who dress up or?

And Satan smiles....

Should make for some interesting hate-crime hoaxes.

Why not transfer students this year? This needs a year of planning?

So they haven’t been there before?

.Morehouse the other 61 genders should sue for admission.

Don't let white people trick you into thinking they do not know what 'Historically' means. They know, they just want to do revisionist history.

So they are currently discriminating against transgender people? 🤦‍♂️

Homosexual factory.

Endtime appearance.

So women who are now men can attend the college but biological women cannot? Sexist much?

No words. 🤦🏾‍♂️

But they are not men

There gonna be more guys on the DL now. Haha

How about trans-racial? Such as ShawnKing? And when you say transgender, are you talking dudes becoming chicks, vice-versa, or non-binary? Why not just let everyone apply?

This is too much

Excuse me? They weren’t admitting them before I’m so freaking triggered that an all black school would be so non progressive.

So what.

Well its Atlanta

CaliforniaBeto People are so darn ignorant. It’s a “historically” Blk college. Hence the world “historically”, people. Blk ppl once were not allowed to attend PWCs. Now people from different races attend Historically Black Colleges & Universities (HBCUs). Trump has made it cool to be ignorant.

I just turned off my notifications for CNN. Your “breaking news” about Ariana Grande was the last straw. I will rely on better news organizations who don’t fill up my notifications with useless drivel.

Just because a university is a historically black university doesn’t mean that now only “black” people go there. It means that it was brought into being because the “white” schools didn’t want “black” students...you know...back in the day.

Transgender is such a misnomer! They apparently didn't like what they were so they chose another gender! And it isn't because there was gender ambiguity or genetic malformation it is just a choice but they did CHOOSE!

Yeah, the bigger news is that they have been discriminating against trans forever.

Do you know how that sounds?

So, not an all Male school any more.

These shouldn't even exist. I thought schools are supposed to be desegregated? So if they're all black schools can we have all white schools? Or all Hispanic schools?

They weren’t before?

Are they going to bus them in from Thailand?

Can a white student apply? What if he or she feels 'naturally black'?

Why are people weird? smh

Ndi ala

This shouldn't be news. A student is a student. PERIOD!

Not the business of college anyway!

🤔

Sounds racist....😎😎

Just black ones?

I’m lost here it’s a all male school

Why is transgender even considered a thing? By definition it’s impossible to change your gender. Take freshman biology and you’ll figure that out

Michael Obama will be thrilled.....but what about people that are TransRacial like Elizabeth Warren?

How long till anyone can identify as black? So much for integrity

Morehouse College Will Admit Transgender Male Students In 2020 — But The Policy Excludes Trans Women'Morehouse is missing a crucial opportunity to become more inclusive by purposefully excluding trans female students,' Tatiana Rafael, a current student who identifies as a transsexual woman, told Buz What’s that you say? It’s an all male college so... But Morehouse is a men's school... How do trans women figure into this? See, it'd be so much easier if it just went co-ed. Then, there wouldn't be this issue of who 'qualifies' as X or Y gender. The focus would shift to what really matters: Do the students belong in Morehouse?
