Replying to @GovStitt
@GovStitt Since you could not make time to meet with the Jones family, we hope you will take these words to heart from Antoinette. The Joneses are your constituents, too. They are victims, too. They matter.

THREAD for OU community. How can a President tout his commitment to “diversity and inclusion” while cutting a program that is a hub of anti-racist debate and activism across the country and on our campus? A university tells you their real commitments by where their money goes.

The students at OU did that! From a sit in and hunger strike the administration has agreed to their demands! Student power is real. Direct action works! #thehateyouhire

To my historically marginalized, minoritized and mistreated folks: I am proud of you all and I am so sorry PWIs keep failing you. I'm sorry they don't prioritize you. You bring so much light. You're doing more than enough. You deserve so much more. – at Norman, OK
