UPDATE: June 13, 2020
Portland State University police shot and killed an innocent Black man in 2018. His name is Jason Washington. The university is falling all over themselves claiming they are committed to anti-racist change. And yet they still refuse to #DisarmPSU — after pleas and demands from Jasons family, community and the PSU community. We need armed cops off PSU campus now. Can you help make sure PSU can’t continue to gloss over this in their PR and marketing and that they #DisarmPSUNow and stop with the hypocrisy? Please follow and boost on Facebook: www.facebook.com/disarmpsunow/
ACTION ITEMS
Let’s remind PSU every day that we aren’t going to forget Jason Washington or the warnings, demands and pleas of the community for four years before he was killed and during the two years since. Please add comments here so that those considering coming to PSU know that the campus remains a hostile environment for Black students, faculty and staff in particular, but for people of many marginalized identities.
