In Short: Gallery Shows Systemic Racism at Princeton

The Carl A. Fields Center for Equality and Cultural Understanding and the Office of Wintersession and Campus Engagement launched TO BE KNOWN AND HEARD, an online gallery featuring examples of systemic racism on campus and other notable experiences of students and faculty from minority groups that show “injustices and indignities in the University’s history.” The site, available at knownandheard.princeton.edu, includes examples from the time of Princeton’s founding through the present day.
