built on racism

Regarding tearing down Confederate statues, we feel it is vital to also tear down the statues of the “Founding Fathers” who promoted slavery and genocide.

This includes replacing John Marshall’s statue and renaming the University that bears his name.

Marshall was the one who made the racist “doctrine of discovery” legal through the Supreme Court. He believed that Christian Europeans could claim Native land, even if they had lived here for generations.

It isn’t right. Change the name.
