so when there is a racist act on campus, black students should be heard but my white colleagues and white peers and white professors and randall kennedy should also be heard. i so appreciate your point that that s my whole point about college should be hard. right? so for me, the language that you just used about pushing intellectually in the classroom, that is such a critical one for thinking about how those questions of justice play out. khalil, i know you want in on this. i do. i think this is a moment again where we see the relationship of the street to the campus or the community of what we are seeing on campus. both of your guests describe activism outside the campus and its relation to inside the campus. activists have pointed out time and time again this is not just about laws, this is about changing beliefs and values and changing attitudes. i want to give kudos to the president of harvard where she

that seems to be an empirical question for which we do not have the data. we actually do not in fact khalil has some data. hang out a little bit. thank you robert traynham. but don t go too far. i ll bring in one of the young activists a leading voice in the black lives matter movement to ask this question about whether we re beginning to see an impact. bad. our experienced investment professionals are one reason over 85% of our mutual funds beat their 10-year lipper averages. so in a variety of markets we can help you feel confident. request a prospectus or summary prospectus with investment information risks, fees and expenses to read and consider carefully before investing. call us or your advisor. t. rowe price. invest with confidence. they say after seeing a magician make his assistant disappear mr.clean came up with a product that makes dirt virtually disappear.
