The recent racial injustices, attacks on reproductive rights, and rise in gun violence we have seen unfold across communities nationwide have produced a clear message: We must do better. Institutional racism, bigotry, and discrimination continue to plague our society, from the highest levels of government to the interactions on our very own campus. Students have grown up with lockdown drills, a worldwide pandemic, and the murder of George Floyd; we know that these issues are neither distant nor rare. It is here and real, and we stand in support of students.
