## Caption

Today began a two day demonstration by scholars across the nation in solidarity with #ScholarStrike and the fight for Black lives. We will be sharing the various ways that our campus participates in the following week! Share what you, your professors, and your classmates are doing in the comments.
 
From the scholarstrike.com website:

“Scholar Strike is an action inspired by the NBA, WNBA, Colin Kaepernick and other athletes, to underscore the urgent importance of addressing racism and injustice in the United States. Conceived via a tweet by Anthea Butler, this is designed to call awareness to the racial climate in America, and the rash of police shootings and racialized violence. 

Scholar Strike is both an action, and a teach-in. Some of us will, for two days, refrain from our many duties and participate in actions designed to raise awareness of and prompt action against racism, policing, mass incarceration and other symptoms of racism's toll in America.

Scholar Strike is open to everyone to participate in on college and university campuses- faculty, staff, grad students, and administrators who are committed to anti-racism, and advocating for  racial justice for BIPOC in all areas of society. 

We are also in solidarity with Canadian Scholars at https://scholarstrikecanada.ca.”
