Shoutout to student body president itsrehema + all the Black people at University of Minnesota who made this happen!
"Our hearts are broken after watching the appalling video capturing the actions of Minneapolis Police Department officers against George Floyd leading to his tragic death," university president Gabel. "As a community, we are outraged and grief-stricken. I do not have the words to fully express my pain and anger, and I know that many in our community share those feelings, but also fear for their own safety. This will not stand.
The move doesn’t completely sever the existing relationship. Gabel wrote, “We will limit our collaboration with the MPD to joint patrols and investigations that directly enhance the safety of our community or that allow us to investigate and apprehend those who put our students, faculty, and staff at risk.". "I write to you to express our overwhelming sadness, and our demands for accountability and justice. Our campuses and facilities are a part of the communities in which they reside.
