‘Afrikan’ student group holds UC-Santa Cruz hostage — admin agrees to every demand
SANTA CRUZ, Calif. – “Afrikan” students at the University of California, Santa Cruz who commandeered the school’s administration building got what they wanted Thursday after three days of yelling obscenities at local reporters, berating Jewish students and holding out for a list of specific demands.
Students with the Afrikan/Black Student Alliance blockaded themselves inside Kerr Hall in the university’s Stevenson College Tuesday and refused to leave until UCSC officials agreed to a list of demands that included guaranteed housing for black students, a white dorm on campus to be pained in “Pan-Afrikan colors” of red, black and green, and “in-person diversity competency training” for all incoming students, among other things.
