As the College of Horace Mann, Coretta Scott King, A. Leon Higginbotham Jr., and Eleanor Holmes Norton, among thousands of others who oppose racism and who have acted—and continue to act—for justice, Antioch College stands with those honoring the memory of George Floyd (and Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, John Crawford, Tony McDade, and too many more, including those whose names we do not know) and the principle that Black Lives Matter.

Members of the Antioch community have been engaging in dialog for nearly a week, and will have more to say about this time in our country following our weekly Community Meeting.
