Black high school student forced to remove ***** Lives Matter mask at graduation.
Black high school student in Pennsylvania said school officials blocked him from participating in his graduation last week until he removed a face mask he was wearing with the words “***** Lives Matter."
Pressed for comment by the York Daily Record about the incident, the school said “decorum of York Catholic’s Baccalaureate and Graduation ceremonies follow the tradition that no messages are permitted on caps or gowns” and added that “graduate wearing a cap, gown, or mask with any message would have been asked to remove it.”
Father: "The action taken against my son demonstrates that York Catholic High School has miles to go before they can put the ugliness of unconscious bias and racism to sleep," he said.

Private School....
Their rules and all trump the constitution. Was not Public education. It was a private Catholic School
The parents had a choice to give up all their rights... and made a choice.
Look how quickly he vented on social media afterwards in the hopes of getting viral fame and being praised as a stick up 'hero.'
Moronic, just like the face mask.
Someone else should have put on a MAGA face mask.
