With activists at colleges campaigning for safe spaces for students, the student newspaper at Claremont McKenna College is taking the trend a step further: offering a safe space on its pages for minorities.
“So for those who don’t feel all the messages of solidarity are enough, or who feel the mainstream media is misguided in representing people of color, or who feel compelled to speak and be heard, we would like to repurpose its influence by providing a space in next week’s issue for students of color to voice their experiences,” a Nov. 13 editorial in The Student Life stated. “We will proofread, but we will not edit your voice or content.” (Fox News)
