Anti-Campus Police Walkout/ Protest- The union led a campus wide protest and die-in to shed light on how Black students have and continue to be treated on the university’s campus by campus police and administrators. Over 200 students campus wide joined the protest, around 40 faculty and staff joined as well or expressed solidarity.

Racial Justice Teach In- The Black Student Union and Student Council Board ‘21 organized a week’s worth of panels, discussions, and programming for campus leaders and community members to be informed and collaborate on social justice topics relevant to the sufferings of BIPOC students in universities city-wide. This included an Intergenerational Black Student Panel-highlighting the imperative racial justice work accomplished on campus in the past 30 years.
