An Inclusive Litany
6/29/92
A group of
University of Oregon
students tore down and defaced a promotional banner for the school's
summer session that was displayed at a campus intersection. The banner
featured the faces of Plato, Jane Austen, and Michelangelo, and said,
"You meet the most interesting people in summer school." Apparently
upset that they did not see any non-white role models, the students
ripped the banner down, wrote "racism" on it, and painted some of
the white faces brown.
