an LSA senior who helped lead 
the workshop, said the discussion 
was intended to challenge the 
belief that individual action is the 
best way to create meaningful 
change. Instead, Pham stressed 

the effectiveness of community 
activism.
“How many of you have heard 
the phrase, ‘Be the change you 
want to see in the world?’” Pham 
asked. 
“With 
our 
workshop 
based on collective action and 
saying why individual action isn’t 
enough, the meaning behind this 
phrase or the way that people have 

construed it is a little bit harmful. 
It perpetuates the idea that in 
order to see the change that we 
want to see in the world, to see a 
problem and want to change it, it’s 
individual responsibility.”
Pham noted how issues like 
white 
supremacy 
cannot 
be 
confronted by individual action 
because they are often systemic. 
The workshop discussed 
nationwide 
movements 
such as the Women’s March 
that has failed to address 
white 
supremacy. 
LSA 
senior Chanelle Davis, who 
also led the discussion, said 
the lack of Black student 
representation in meetings 
about Spencer’s proposed 
visit turned her off even 
though she was invested in 
the cause.
“Although 
the 
collaboration got it done 
— Spencer didn’t come — 
it was missing that piece 
about building sustainable 
organizing 
spaces 
and 
groups and relationships 
with folks,” Davis said.
Davis also mentioned 
how 
communities 
need 
to 
acknowledge 
the 
differences of opinion and 
background among their 
members.
“We 
each 
possess 
unique 
experiences 
and 
also different identities and 
we also face oppressions 
differently and at different 
levels, and we also have 

some privileges and things like 
that,” Davis said. “But everyone 
has a place in the larger work for 
justice.”
Kaitlyn Wilson, a Master’s 
student 
at 
the 
School 
of 
Social 
Work, 
acknowledged 
the 
uncertainty 
some 
white 
people may feel with their role 
in 
organizing 
against 
white 
supremacy. 
However, 
she 
expressed the importance of 
utilizing racial privilege to help 
dismantle it.
“I am a white woman,” Wilson 
said. “For me, something like 
this, I might feel like maybe I’m 
not welcome because I’m kind of 
the group that we’re organizing 
against, but I think it’s important 
that white people like myself 
are also able to be a part of it and 
acknowledge our own privilege 
and use it to work towards 
dismantling white supremacy.”
Workshop attendees discussed 
what holds them back from 
pursuing 
opportunities 
for 
activism, as well as movements 
that have not been successful in 
combating white supremacy. One 
attendee brought up the decline 
in the labor movement, while 
another mentioned how the 
“we’re all immigrants” sentiment 
disregards 
the 
historical 
oppression of Native Americans 
and African Americans. Pham 
said revisiting the history of 
marginalized groups is crucial 

A VIEW OF THE SNOW

It was the last of many for 
University of Michigan seniors: 
a willingness to wake up early 
for tailgates (unlike classes), 
singing 
“Mr. 
Brightside” 
with 100,000 spectators and 
enjoying a football game at the 
Big House as undergraduates.
The 
Michigan 
football 
team beat Indiana University 31 
to 20.
Engineering senior Rachel 
Fenberg has gone to football 
games since her freshman year, 

and gained appreciation for 
the experience as she attended 
more games.
“I love the atmosphere of the 
Big House and I always look 
forward to going to games,” 
Fenberg said. “I think as I have 
gotten older, I’ve been able to 
appreciate it more and now as 
a senior with the team being 
so amazing, it’s been really 
exciting to be a part of the 
student section and watch all 
the games.”

LSA senior Rachel Cohen 
felt bittersweet about a great 
experience coming to an end.
“It’s really bittersweet for 
me,” Cohen said. “As a freshman, 
I didn’t know anything about 
football. I started staying at 
the games and getting more 
invested in it so eventually now 
over the course of four years I 
started understanding football 
and I really loved staying for 
all the games. It’s really sad for 
that to be over.”

Seniors 
at 
the 
game 
expressed sadness as two of 
its players, LSA senior Chase 
Winovich 
and 
Rackham 
student 
Berkley 
Edwards, 
both sustained injuries in the 
second half and did not return 
to the game. The athletes were 
transported to the hospital, but 
reports show they sustained less 
severe injuries than expected.
Michigan will take on Ohio 
State University next Saturday 
in Columbus.

65 law students filed complaints

State Street and East Madison Street

The crosswalk is not easily visible from the driver’s perspective, 
especially at night.

In a statewide study led by Michigan Medicine 
doctor Ryan Howard, researchers found

found doctors prescribing almost 

70 different opioid pills

pills for minor or less invasive surgeries.
