BLM protests sparked removal of federal statues in US

A US university has issued an apology for creating online separate cafes for white people and blacks.&nbsp;

The apology from the University of Michigan-Dearborn near Detroit came after two virtual events were held on Tuesday, with one advertised as "non-POC (people of colour) cafe" for discussing their experience as students in the college and as non-POC outside the campus.&nbsp;

The second event was also organised on similar lines and was named as "BIOPIC (Black, Indigenous and People of Colour) Cafe" and promoted as a forum for "marginalised racial/ethnic/cultural communities" to gather and put forward their experiences in the college and in the outside world, as reported by news agency AP.&nbsp;

The university, in its statement, said that they apologise for referring the sessions as "cafes", but insisted, they were not intended to be exclusive or exclusionary for any particular race.&nbsp;

Its Vice-Chancellor Ken Kettenbeil said that the use of word "cafe" created much confusion, and people thought two separated cafes are built to segregate communities from each other.&nbsp;

"The terms used to describe these virtual events and the descriptions themselves were not clear and not reflective of the university''s commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion," the statement said.
