Standing for Justice and in Community for George Floyd

“... to our Black community at Stanford, I want to say: Your lives matter, and your voices matter. While the violent events and senseless deaths we have been seeing in America have been sickening and overwhelming for all of us, I recognize the special pain felt by members of our Black community, and the added emotional and physical burden that you carry. Seeing accountability for the killing of George Floyd may provide a sense of justice, but it surely does not erase this burden. You are essential and valued members of our community.”
— President Marc Tessier-Lavigne, in a message to the campus community
Stanford staff and faculty members share your concerns and are here to support you. The weight of what you are witnessing and experiencing at this moment may be more than you have felt in your lifetime. You do not have to experience it alone. Take time to care for yourself and share what you are going through with others.
