The educational achievements of Black and Brown people have nothing to do with Blackness or Browness. It has to do with access to resources. Let’s equalize the resources in the schools and see what the outcomes will be. - Aldon Morris #AERABrownLecture

People don't need to change. Processes need to change. Competence is about what you *do*. It's not about what you know.

[BipocAnth Purdue @BIPOCAnthPurdue]

At Purdue, we are tired of being a number. There are many other questions to be asked, but these are just a few to get started and we hope that these act as such, a beginning.

I’m about to finish up my time in the fields, and wanted everyone to know that we (farmworkers) are paid $7 for two gallons of blueberries. How much do you pay for your blueberries?

[Jonathan Rosa @DrJonathanRosa]

Efforts to “diversify” syllabuses are less interesting than those to interrogate the fundamental intellectual limitations of fields whose canons have remained nearly exclusively White for generations

[BipocAnth Purdue @BIPOCAnthPurdue]

thank you to the students who spoke out and pushed the administration for more.

we'd love to see more direct actions taken against racism and white supremacy on our campus.

BREAKING: Maxwell Lawrence, the student who posted a TikTok video depicting him running over protesters in his vehicle and sent racist images into a group chat, has been expelled from Purdue, spokesperson Tim Doty says. Story to come.

Please follow and read the experiences of Black students @LifeAtPurdue. These stories should never go unheard https://t.co/jxAVx3rErJ

[Purdue Exponent @purdueexponent]

Three days ago, the Instagram account "blackatPurdue" started posting anonymous stories of black students' and staff members' experiences at the University.
