MADISON, Wis.
Nike Air Max 90 Essential Donna . -- Several
University of Wisconsin athletes used their Twitter accounts Monday night to
post a statement demanding change in racial inequalities on campus. The message
came in the wake of an incident at an Oct. 29 home football game in which two
people were involved with a Halloween costume depicting President Barack Obama
in a noose.The statement, shared by more than 20 of the football teams black
players as well as basketball star Nigel Hayes and several other
student-athletes, noted that black athletes are loved during competition but
then subjected to racial discrimination in our everyday lives too.It is painful
that someone in our community would show up to an athletic event with a mask of
our sitting president, who happens to look a lot like us, with a noose around
his neck, the statement continued. That moment was like a punch in the face to
not only student-athletes of color but also current students, faculty and alumni
of color. This incident was yet another blow and reminder that there are people
in this community that may not value diverse populations.Earlier in the day,
Wisconsin officials indefinitely revoked the season tickets of the two people
involved in the Obama costume. One man wore masks of Obama and Hillary Clinton
with a noose around their necks. The other wore a Donald Trump mask and led the
first man around by the noose.I am personally very sorry that the hurt that this
incident and our response to it has caused, UW-Madison chancellor Rebecca Blank
read from a prepared statement at a Monday afternoon faculty senate meeting,
according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. I have heard from students, faculty
and community members who are dissatisfied with our response, and I understand
why. A noose is the symbol of some of the worst forms of racial hatred and
intimidation in our countrys history. We understand this, and we should have
communicated that more forcefully from the very beginning. ... I understand the
deeply hurtful impact this particularly has on our students and communities of
color.Blank and the university have been criticized for their handling of the
situation. The university initially noted that after the man was asked by
authorities to remove the noose, the costume no longer violated rules and was
protected by free speech. He was then allowed to stay for the rest of the game.
However, other fans later said the man put the noose back on later in the
game.Wisconsin athletic director Barry Alvarez announced last week that the
school would have a revised stadium policy in place before the football teams
Nov. 12 home game against Illinois. Those changes have yet to be announced.The
statement from students touched on a number of social issues and closed with a
message for Blank.In solidarity with other students on this campus, we implore
Chancellor Blank and her cabinet to take action, be visible, leave your ivory
tower and speak to the students, the statement read. Please create real
programs, initiate meaningful change and understand that students of color
deserve to thrive in this institution just like our peers. We want to be a part
of the amazing legacy this university has held for years and years.
