Waka Flocka Flame is taking a stand against racism.
After catching the news that the University of Oklahoma’s Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity had chanted disturbing racist slurs, Waka Flocka has canceled his upcoming performance at the school.
“I must say I’m disgusted and disappointed in the actions of the SAE fraternity at University of Oklahoma and I will be canceling my scheduled performance for them next month,” Flocka said in an Instagram photo. “Racism is something I will not tolerate.”
SMFH.. I know for a fact the whole school and SAE don’t agree with those kids actions so know that I’m not madd at the whole #SAE just those disgusting kids!!!!!! #WFF We can’t change history but we damn sure can create our own future #DeathToRacism
Video footage that surfaced over the weekend features members of the chapter singing a racist chant in unison. ABC News reports that the university has since severed “all and affiliations” with the fraternity.

Waka Flocka also said that he appreciates and is “all about” “white, black and brown people… all races partying having a good time and enjoying themselves together peacefully” at his shows.
In the caption of the photo, Waka clarified that he’s only upset at the “disgusting kids” of the fraternity. He closes with some admirable words: “We can’t change history but we damn sure can create our own future #DeathToRacism.”
