Black&Brown Lives Matter OU




((Anchor Regennia Cam#1))


     Black and Brown Lives Matter. Black Student Association followed the widely discussed “Don’t Shoot” panel that took place in Gaylord last week, with an event of their own.  

((Take VO))
     Students and faculty gathered around the South Oval earlier this evening in remembrance and recognition of people like Michael Brown and Trayvon Martin. This was not a panel or a discussion, but a tribute to those who have been shot down because of what many feel is racial profiling.
((Take SOT))
     ((I think it’ imperative, because if OUs going to promote diversity on their campus and have diversity but the same time be unified its important for us to understand each other its important for us to all know each other’s culture and background so that when issues come apart we’re able to talk about them and solve them)) 
((More VO))
 Attendees lit candles and had a moment of silence, to reflect not only on the past events, but also on their lives and blessings.

Students hope for more events such as this one, and for more people of all races to come out and support.
