Condemns Racist Acts at American University and Other College Campuses | 2022-11-28 | 2022 | 2022-11 | Democrat | House | FL | Frederica S. Wilson | W000808 | wilson.house.gov | wilson | https://wilson.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | Congresswoman Frederica S. Wilson joined congressional colleagues and sorors at a news conference today to decry the discovery of bananas hanging from nooses tied to trees on the campus of American University in Washington, D.C. The despicable act appears to be in response the election of the university's first African-American student government president, Taylor Dumpson, who is also a member of the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority. In addition to delivering the statement below condemning the incident and similar acts on campuses around the nation, Rep. Wilson called on Education Secretary Betsy DeVos to address this terrible phenomenon. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T03:24:37Z |
