Scholarships for students who kneel during the playing of the national anthem are cancelled by the University of Texas. “They must respect this land because they are on it.” Primarily

In a controversial decision that has generated a lot of discussion, the University of Texas has cancelled scholarships for two students who decided to hand them over during a sporting event.

According to the university’s administration, the administrators’ actions were disrespectful to the country and its values, which resulted in the revocation of their financial assistance.

The incident happened during a football game when the two students, who were both part of the university’s student body, chose to kneel in protest of racial inequality and social injustice.

This gesture of kneeling has been seen in many other sports throughout the world and has come to represent the larger movement supporting civil rights.

University authorities defended their decision, stressing the significance of honoring the institution and what it stands for. “They have to respect this laÿd, they’re oο this laοd,”
