Students, community discuss Black Lives Matter
It was a bright, cool day when three female BYU students walked into the open-aired grove located in the middle of the Joseph Smith Building on the campus of Brigham Young University. One student had a Black Lives Matter shirt gripped in her hand, another wearing a shirt that had huge letters across the chest area that read “Nah,” and at the lower end of the shirt that read “Rosa Parks.” All three students opened up about their experiences of being Black Lives Matter supporters, black students at a majority-caucasian campus and members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
