Student protests inspired by Black Lives Matter have swept across American universities. What did these undergraduate activists want? PhDiva Dr. Xine Yao interviews Kristi Carey, one of the leaders of the 2014-5 protests at Colgate University. Kristi and her fellow women of color activists organized in the wake of Michael Brown's killing to draw attention to systemic problems on campus and to demand real change from the university. Sit-ins, death threats, candle light vigils -- what has happened since this momentous unsettling in the name of making the corporate university a safer, more livable space for marginalized students? Kristi talks about the aftermath having just finished a scholarly article and thesis reflecting on the extent of protest and change in the neoliberal higher education as part of  her MA in Gender, Race, and Social Justice at UBC. What inspires a student to change from a major in math to one in education?Kristi Carey's article "On Cleaning: Student Activism in the Corporate and Imperial University": https://olh.openlibhums.org/articles/10.16995/olh.92/Image: a poster from the Colgate protests depicting a person with a raised fist and "RECLAIMING OUR EDUCATION" in the background.
