Three Black women/students that are critical legal analysts for the Afro-Diasporic Legal Network have written a piece on Black student safety at Kent and the BLM movement.

"Actions speak louder than words, Facta Non Verba"

We welcome your statement and endorse the aims of your demands. Thank you to all the collective for reaching out to us. We endorse your calls to action, change is a collaborative process and we have contacted you to discuss how we can work alongside you to lobby @UniKent

15/16 Below you will find the founding signatories from ADLN, WASOC, UKCACS, KCU, NIGSOC, EASOC, SASOC, and EAESOC.

Protect these students, their societies, and endorse their demands. This is more helpful than posting a Black square for a day, or empty solidarity statements.

[Afro-Diasporic Legal Network @adln_kent]

14/16 “Until these demands are implemented, you will not see substantial shifts in student community that affords the safety that BME/Black students require…We refuse to continue with business as usual, if it is at the expense of our safety, our education, and our lives.”

[Afro-Diasporic Legal Network @adln_kent]

13/16 Demand 10, Black students demand the hire of BME counselors. We face anti-black racism on top of depression, anxiety, insomnia and stress while pursuing our studies. Our retention, health, & wellbeing, requires this support which we really shouldn't be begging for in 2020.
