Divest Letter Writing and Rally/Storytelling

Sponsored by:
SUNDAY NIGHT ENVIRONMENTAL GROUP
Let your voice be heard! Join Divest Middlebury Friday afternoon for an open mic storytelling event in Mead Chapel where students, faculty, and community members will share why divestment matters. We will begin by writing personal letters about the impact of climate change (from 1-2pm). At 2pm we will hear from several student and community speakers. We will then open the mic to anyone who wishes to read their letter. The event will culminate in a march down to Old Chapel where we will deliver our message to the Board of Trustees as they decide how to act on our divestment ask.

Nikole Hannah-Jones was named a MacArthur Genius for “reshaping national conversations around education reform”. This is but one honor in a growing list: she’s won a Peabody, a Polk, and a National Magazine Award for her story on choosing a school for her daughter in a segregated city. Most recently, her New York Times Magazine’s The 1619 Project, on the history and legacy of American slavery, went viral and garnered her even more honors for her groundbreaking journalism.
