Barack Obama Warns ‘Dear Class Of 2020’ Against “Division & Falsehoods”, Without Mentioning Donald Trump Once

Set to fill the gap by ceremonies shuttered due to the COVID-19 crisis, the four-hour livestreamed event was originally scheduled for June 6. However, the star-studded occasion moved to today last week in honor of the George Floyd’s memorial service that was held in Raeford, North Carolina yesterday.
