The student organization Students4Justice 
organized a campus walkout to protest racism 
on Ann Arbor’s campus. This walkout occurred 
during the weeks following the election of 
president-elect Donald Trump, and similar 
walkouts were held on campuses across the 
country. The walkout began with a speech 
from Reverend Jesse Jackson, before students 
began walking across campus and through 
school buildings. The walkout ended on the 
steps of Mason hall, with various students of 
color speaking on behalf of the movement.
