the eyes of texas is a racist song with an undeniable anti-Black history. it shouldn’t be played at graduation or ANY event. that’s why #UT21 is walking out of graduation in protest. the admin may be bowing to racist donors, but we aren’t. #eyesoftexaswalkout

Today the Daily Texan’s Diversity and Inclusion Board put out a statement listing these incidents in which management belittled, cursed out and minimized BIPOC staffers.

The Daily Texan newsroom has not always been as welcoming and inclusive as it should be. Current and former members of the Diversity and Inclusion Board have created a list of action items to support BIPOC inside and outside of the newsroom.

hey UT... bipoc organizers put together a list of demands for the university, including COMPLETE divestment from UTPD/APD + getting rid of the eyes of texas. incredible to see so many things we've been fighting for coming together in one vision. pls sign! https://t.co/kxyhvXhBow

to be clear this is not just a bon app problem (or a r29 problem, or philly inquirer, or NYT, or wapo). this is a problem with all of mainstream media, whose default position since inception has been to align with white bourgeois interests, upheld by a white bourgeois hierarchy

[Jay♥︎ @V1rHo3]

this is James Scurlock , he was shot and killed in Omaha, Nebraska during the protest of George Floyd . His killer is a white supremacist ( Jake Gardner) who isn’t getting charged. please spread the word so that he can get justice !!!!!!!
