Subject: FW: [I_Resist] Shadow of the Quad Friday @ Noon

>A group of UIUC students have decided to revive a tradition called
>"Shadowing the Quad."  As I understand it, students of color would gather
>for a variety of activities at regular intervals in order to promote both
>the solidarity among students of color and their visibility on
>campus.  "I-Resist," a group of students united against the racist
>environment engendered and symbolized by the Chief, will be organizing a
>similar event this Friday at noon (see below).  Please circulate this
>message to any staff, faculty, students or members of the community that
>might be interested in joining the students and/or showing their support.
