A collective statement from the #BFSO @Mizzou regarding our stance on the need for the Jefferson statue to come down. We stand in solidarity with our students! #BlackatMizzou #BlackInTheIvoryTower ✊🏾

[MU Black Faculty and Staff Organization (BFSO) @MU_BFSO]

In our statement, we remind the university community that Jefferson facilitated the expansion of the domestic slave trade and the removal of Indigenous people to seize land for white colonization. The statue must go.

[MU Black Faculty and Staff Organization (BFSO) @MU_BFSO]

Our organization's members wrote a statement directed to @umsystem President and MU Interim Chancellor Mun Choi and other leaders that calls for the removal of the Thomas Jefferson statue from campus. We support @RomanLeapheart's petition to remove the statue. #BlackAtMizzou
