As the author points out, this completely ignores the fact that he and his peers were punished by the College for their participation in the protest, as well as how these very photos were used as evidence by the College at the students' hearings.

"While the purpose of photos is to document events, we recognize that they can be weaponized by police forces — and that Black and Brown protestors are particularly vulnerable. Thus, going forward, we plan to prioritize the safety of protestors by omitting photos of Black Lives Matter and related protests that can be used to identify individuals easily.

Title A name given to the resource Concerned Students of Middlebury: Reevaluating Middlebury’s Record with Black Students Subject The topic of the resource Letter sent to President Patton from Concerned Students of Middlebury, a student organization, in response to a community message that she sent on May 31st. The letter calls Patton's message "tone deaf" and calls her out for: 1. conflating COVID-19 to racism; 2. framing racism as a "new" or "recent" phenomenon; 3. "The hypocrisy associated with Middlebury’s verbal allegiance to racial equity but lack of action"; 4. Failing to support Black community members; insensitive use of air as a metaphor (The statement claims that 'in a world beset by two plagues, we are gasping for air.' This use of air as a metaphor, here and throughout the message, is grossly offensive, given that George Floyd’s (and before him, Eric Garner’s) final words were 'I can't breathe'". Letter then makes a list of immediate actions to be implemented by the college: 1. an apology for Patton's letter; 2. resources specifically for Black community members to utilize during this time; resources for non-Black community members, so that they can become better allies. Finally, the Letter asks for representation of cultural organizations at the SLG meetings, as well as a student or faculty member to represent communities of color at the Board of Trustee meetings.

For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource We still have questions for the Hamilton Forum Subject The topic of the resource In response to a Hamilton Forum event. The authors explain that the reason that students protested the event was due to the topic and title of the event being "purposefully inflammatory, harmful to our BIPOC peers and a continuation of the institutional and systemic racism that Middlebury upholds". The authors also state that their letter to the SLG received 649 students and 110 alumni signatures. Authors point out 1. that a major financial contributor to the forum (ISI) is an organization that promotes conservative policies that perpetuate institutional racism; 2. Professor Keegan Callanan, the director of the AHF, is on the council of the National Endowment for the Humanities (which is part of the Trump administration's "push" for "pro-America" curricula); 3. The hosting of this event seems to contradict the commitment Middlebury made to anti-racism in the summer. Finally, the authors express outrage at the way that peaceful/non-disruptive protesters of the event were treated ("Students were kicked off the Zoom call and permanently banned from the forum for various attempts at non-disruptive protest. Although digital protests are a new world for all of us, the AHF would have had no grounds for removing us from the room had this event been held in person and had we attended with the same intention to protest non-disruptively. How, then, is it acceptable that we were removed from this digital event? This [is a] blatant display of censorship").
