Racist Signs Found on Old Campus at Yale

On Wednesday night, just hours after Yale College Dean Jonathan Holloway and University President Peter Salovey sent out a joint email affirming the University’s support for diversity and open discussions, Holloway sent another email to the Yale community notifying students that signs displaying racist messages had been found on Old Campus.
The front side of the signs featured two phrases: “All Lives Matter” and “No More Dead Black Children.” But Afro-American Cultural Center Director Rise Nelson Burrow told the News that the backs of the signs contained additional messages. According to Holloway, those messages included references to black criminality, violence and acts of rape.
