KU race forum provokes read of 15 student demands
A roughly dozen KU students, most of them Black, carried signs and briefly took the stage at a Wednesday race forum to read a list of 15 demands they outlined for the university. The event, lasting over two hours, featured voices from students and faculty of diverse colors. A woman who read the list declined to identify herself or answer questions. The group, using the Twitter hashtag rockchalkinvisiblehawk, posted the full demands in a tweet from Invisible Hawks on Thursday.
