Via Campus Reform:
Protesters at the University of Vermont hosted a rally and a hunger strike in an attempt to force the school to meet a list of social justice demands in “solidarity with black lives matter.”
The “Done with the Bulls—- Rally” was hosted Tuesday by a student activist organization called “No Names for Justice,” and is intended as a response to “It’s ok to be white” flyers that appeared on campus last year.
“On Friday, February 16th a UVM staff member, John Mejia, announced they would be going on hunger strike until UVM meets all of the demands presented by No Names for Justice last semester including an additional 10 demands that they presented,” the description page read. “It is time for our demands to be met, no more bulls—- emails, no more bulls—- meetings.”
“THE TIME IS NOW!! YOU WERE BORN FOR A TIME SUCH AS THIS!!” the organizers continued. “Bring pans, instruments, anything that makes noise!! Bring posters, banners, anything that takes up space!!”
