Some within the black community are in full meltdown after accusing the historic HBCU Tuskegee University of enforcing “anti-black” rules when its president banned bonnets, durags, slippers, and other ghetto attire. The policy has sparked outrage, with some claiming the school is forcing “respectable societal norms” on its own campus.

"anti-black" rules create "respectable societal norms" ??? Did I get that right?

I didn't know going to school in your PJs was a racial thing. White trash do it all the time at Wal-mart. I am tired of both boss. Dress like an adult.

My dad taught me to act and dress for the success I want. Image is a very powerful tool. Look smart, confident and professional to be taken seriously in life. Look like a ghetto hoodrat and you’ll be judged as one. “Fake it until you make it”

@RonColeman Dress for success, morons. Unless you’re a dope dealer, rapper or cook at Waffle House the pajamas won’t work.

Black culture is horrific and needs to be fixed. I don’t care what the man with the huge bonnet on his head has to say about it. You can’t fix the problem until it’s acknowledged. It’s freaking hilarious that he says “respectability is rooted in anti-blackness.” 😂He truly doesn’t realize what he’s saying about his own culture. It’s time for change.

Is there a culinary school there? 🤣

The number of young people in our communities that not only CHOOSE but actually FIGHT FOR mediocrity and lack of class is heartbreaking.

Hey black peolle, the bonnets look RETARDED. They really look stupid and trashy. Sincerely everyone who doesn’t wear them

It’s anti clown 🤡! How will you ever get a real job with an orange 🍊 bonnet on? Give me a break!

"respectability is rooted in anti blackness" If a white person said this they would be a cancelled racist

Thanks for instituting some decorum at Tuskegee.

It’s a private school… trying to turn out productive members of society… who know how to act and present themselves…✌🏼❤️🇺🇸

A man wearing a bonnet? Sheesh. Get yourself a real hat. He looks like such a moron. At this point, he'd look better in a pirates hat.

We are not going to continue to take this ridiculous bigotry on their part. They are a minority in this country and we do not have to bow down to every ridiculous idea they come up with. There is a reason that this school put a ban on ‘ghetto’ dressing. You are not going to turn our nation into acceptance ghetto dressing. GET OVER YOURSELF FOOL!

Do you want to spend the rest of your lives in the ghetto, children? No? Then ditch the ghetto ratchet attire, attitude and clothes. Normal America caintz stand dat shit.

Societal norms should be taught at home. It’s a shame a school of higher learning has to do it before these kids head out into the real world. Bad enough some have to be taught to read at that level let alone dress.

Here is the guy enforcing the dress code.

You'll never meet a rational person wearing a shower cap as a fashion accessory.

Always the nigga card

The bad news is folks like this guy think they are intellectual. They got passed through school, given diplomas and in their minds they are smart. This is what happens when we abandon meritocracy in favor of equity.

Then and now!

I couldn’t hear a thing he said, over the saliva sloshing around in his mouth.

This is a life lesson, the world doesn't work the way you want it to. Time to grow up those things belong in your bedroom.

I think we should have school uniform from K - 12. Not a dress code. A school uniform. It helps teachers out. Less for parents to buy or look for a certain brand for their kids

Yes, it's certainly anti-black to suggest that they act like civilized humans and stop setting a shameful example for their community.🙄

with these people, what DOESN’T “AGGRIEVE” THEM?

They can always transfer to a school with lesser standards.

He’s doing your culture a favor. You’d all do better not looking like you just rolled out of bed.

Holy Crap, Batman. The Bag Head has morphed into Unisex Bag Head.

It's anti-black to expect you to look professional?

“respectable societal norms” @TheDemocrats Be Like Screw that! How Dare you try to elevate these people to respectability? that's how we have keep them down and unsuccessful in America for years.

Respectability is rooted into our blackness?? Everything we do we do well?? Dude

Me, wondering if this fool even understands the implication of what he’s saying:
