Oriel College sold out to big money. Oxford's Chancellor said students
who don't like Rhodes should "think about studying elsewhere." A
dictatorship of donors and administrators have shown no regard for the
student voice, or for black life. Oxford has revealed its hand, which
has only made us stronger and more determined.
Now, we demand that Rhodes falls in all his manifestations in Oxford and
beyond. We will march peacefully to various sites, and issue new demands
for the fall of racist symbols, decolonisation of the white curriculum,
reparatory justice, and greater black representation at all levels of
the university.
We will announce the sites to be visited leading up to the march which
will be part protest and part 'imperial tour' of racist Oxford.
Join us in this historic moment as we begin a new phase of the Rhodes
Must Fall in Oxford movement.
