The public statements are nice @UBuffalo but you are just as complicit in upholding anti-Blackness and white supremacy. Just last month UB allowed conservative speaker, Allen West to give a speech on campus entitled, "America is Not Racist".
When students (largely Black) protested the speaker, people made anonymous threats online to, "use the protestors as target practice". @UBuffalo never sent out a statement directly to students addressing this and it's been crickets since.

There's been a lot of discussion about the neighborhood in which the anti-Black white supremacist terriorist attack occured. Here's a short 🧵on the area from a person who not only lives in the area, but who is researching it as well. 👇🏿
Buffalo has a white-Black Dissimilarity index of 74. This means that 74% of white ppl would need to move to another neighborhood to make white ppl + Black ppl more evenly distributed across neighborhoods. Our region has one of the highest Dissimilarity Indicies in the county.
