<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Attached to this email, we have included the PDF of the statements written by the Coalition of Black Students and Allies written to President Robert C.
Robbins, Provost Liesl Folks, Chief Brian Seastone, and the University of Arizona Administration. In our statement at the June 4th Re-entry Briefing, we stated that the University needed to center and listen to the demands and concerns of Black students and
community organizers. The University needs to do more than "listen" to these demands. Those named in this letter (President Robert C. Robbins, Provost Liesl Folks, Chief Brian Seastone, and the University of Arizona Administration) need to make actionable
steps to respond to these statements, and make plans to successfully complete and achieve a majority of the demands by FY21- as outlined by the Coalition of Black Students and Allies. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

bodies and minds based on societally constructed ideas of normalcy, intelligence, excellence and productivity. These constructed ideas are deeply rooted in anti-Blackness, eugenics, colonialism and capitalism. This form of systemic oppression leads to people
and society determining who is valuable and worthy based on a person’s appearance and/or their ability to satisfactorily [re]produce, excel and "behave." You do not have to be disabled to experience ableism. a working definition by Talila "TL" Lewis in conversation
with Disabled Black and other negatively racialized folk, especially Dustin Gibson; updated January 2020.] <o:p></o:p></span></p>
