Later, he revealed that even his own family is frustrated by failed attempts to create lasting peace in the region. Notably, there was an age divide in support among Morehouse graduates: The alumni sitting to the left gave standing ovations during and after Biden's speech, while the 2024 graduating class mainly remained seated throughout.
"It is my stance as a Morehouse man -- nay, as a human being -- to call for an immediate and permanent cease-fire in the Gaza strip," Fletcher said. "Hear the people of this world sing the song of righteous justice."
