This Monday (September 14, 2020), marks the 50th ANNIVERSARY OF BSU DEMANDS TO WHITMAN COLLEGE. No matter if you listen to every episode or just listen to the ones that relate to you personally, this is the one to tune into. Phil Boss, class of 1971, and founder of BSU, discusses his experience of planting the seeds of activism at Whitman. He and his few black peers at the time demanded Whitman College make the commitment to diversity and inclusion in the student, faculty, and administration demographics, and to diversify class curriculums. Listen to Mr. Boss and Aliyah Fard, current vice president of BSU and co-author of “Results May Vary,” speak about the differences and similarities between activism at Whitman 50 years ago to today. It is an understatement to say that this episode is filled with wisdom and encouragement from Mr. Boss. Get ready to be inspired!
