NEWPORT A large Black Lives Matter logo on the floor of the gymnasium at Rogers High School is causing some discussion in the community, according to School Committee members.
The logo is just the words “Black Lives Matter” and the letters are made of vinyl that can be removed from the floor.
Development and planning of the logo was an initiative of three students on the girls basketball team Miyah Brooks, Maeve Crowley and Ellie Margolis all of whom addressed the School Committee on Tuesday night.
“I think the main purpose of this is to start conversations, for people to be able to ask questions about it, and for people like me to explain why Black Lives Matter and how we are being suppressed,” Brooks, who is black, told the School Committee.
