There will be two key events happening this evening, one of action and the other of healing. The College will be having a Black Lives Matter Conference in the spring. If you are interested in getting involved in the planning process, please join us in the ISC, room 128 at 5pm. Second, the Africana House will be opening its doors as a safe place to discuss reactions to the election day results. As an act of support, professors and counselors will be present. I hope that everyone will consider attending these events. We have to act together to make change in this world.

On behalf of the Africana House, we want to say thank you to all of the people who came out and filled our seats. We encourage everyone to learn from our guest speaker, Travis Harris, as he connected his own upbringing to the Black Lives Matter movement. Remember that WE have the power to control the narrative told in the years to come. Do not let your voice be neutralized. The time is now.
