Students call on the University to cancel its plans for the private police force as acts of police brutality continue nationwide.
The Office of Diversity and Inclusion hosted “Addressing Hate During COVID-19” on April 23 to discuss nationwide calls for racial justice. The event was sparked by the conviction of Derek Chauvin, the Minneapolis police officer charged with the murder of George Floyd last summer, and followed the fatal shooting of Daunte Wright, a 20-year-old Black man, in Brooklyn Center, Minn., on April 11.
At the event, University President Ronald J. Daniels encouraged reflection and collective action within the Hopkins community.
