A week after election and President-elect Donald Trump’s victory, members of the community came together in a walk-out protesting the election’s outcome in front of Old Main. Despite visible Trump supporters in the audience wearing “Make America Great Again” hats, the protest remained civil on both sides.

Protesters sang songs, read poetry, and continued onto the HUB-Robeson Center. They chanted “Not My President,” “Black Lives Matter,” and “Donald Trump Go Away, Racist, Sexist, Anti-Gay.”
