Personal Diary of Oromo student-gripping tale @ Seattle

I was saddened by this story


Here is the story--even in the States, Oromos face discrimination as a group of Ethiopian Highlanders denied their rights to form seperate distinct nation.

Fah1223, It will be so much interesting if you read. From what I understood, Oromo students were denied of access to perform their own distinct culture at a major event in the school held by African Association of Students. All Ethiopian highlanders were disgusted by their appearances on stage and filed complaint to exclude them from the organization.
They called to draft amendment of the ASP constitution for the purpose of excluding the Oromo. Enraged and shocked, Oromo students at Washington State University called every member of their ethnic group to vote for the constitution.

He puts the story in a gripping description.
