Description

The Black Leadership Coalition hosted a unity march April 29, inviting students and faculty to speak about their experiences with racism within the JMU community. The coalition was formed last June in response to the murder of George Floyd and has been working alongside the President’s Task Force for Racial Equity to bring change to JMU’s campus.
