Tonight we have no words of condemnation, but we instead want to voice our unyielding support to the Black and Brown student activists and advocates that have been fighting against the institution of white supremacy and privilege that was so evident tonight on Franklin St. 1/
"How is it possible for UNC to have withstood periods of political scandal, extreme partisanship, negative & critical headlines and still remain that shining beacon of light on the hill? Its the students." Powerful final remarks from @UNC's Student Body President @lamarrichards_!

SUPER GRATEFUL to the crew of student vols who organized our first UNC Student Leader Roundtable. That fellow Heels made time for it during midterms speaks to their dedication to our University’s progress, & to the quality & character of their leadership. Lux libertas y’all.
May the history books accurately recount how that “nagging” Student Body President led fearlessly, every single day, on behalf of the courageous students of UNC.
This has been one of the great joys of my life.
The *first* distinguished lectureship at @UNC hosted by the student body. Looking forward to inviting a renown scholar to Chapel Hill in a few weeks to deliver the 1st Annual Lectureship on Racial Equity and Belonging!
@UNC Student Body President, @lamarrichards_, announces he is not running for re-election and underscores “the importance of continuing to support students from historically marginalized communities” as our next campus leaders.
He has blazed the way for many to follow.💙

BSM wishes you all a happy Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day! We celebrate Dr. King on this day for all of his contributions to the Civil Rights Movement and the legacy he left behind. ❤️🖤💚
Come learn about the recent administrative changes to UNC, recap from the fall semester, and discuss future goals. The Town Hall event will be from 6:00PM-7:00PM tomorrow, January 18, 2022. The Meeting ID is: 986 6765 2544. See you there! ❤️🖤💚
Waited around for @KevinGuskiewicz to acknowledge the hard work and dedication of staff & employees today. Guess we can’t expect that of the Chancellor of a University, but good we have a SBP who’s doing both his job and our Chancellor’s.
On this Labor Day, I uplift the hardworking and dedicated staff of @UNC who continue to be the heartbeat of our campus, even if it means putting themselves and/or their families at risk — on behalf of Carolina’s 30,000 students I thank you, today and everyday.❤️
Today’s UNC statement grossly misrepresented community concern-sharing & expression of a high degree of solidarity & shared concerns between graduate instructors, undergraduate students, and key campus community organizations.
By belittling this, UNC is dismissing our community
My only response to yesterday’s CPC meeting, where University Leadership elected not to attend, is advice to my peers (undergrad, grad, and professional alike) — use yesterday’s absences as an example of what *not* to do. We must lead where others cower, every single time.
