Mississippi students say racial slurs used at protest ‘horrifically uncalled for’
SUMMARY: The Chancellor of the University of Mississippi has promised an investigation into student conduct after racial slurs were used during a pro-Palestine demonstration. One student has been removed from the Phi Delta Theta fraternity for making racial gestures. Witnesses are shocked at how quickly racial slurs were used. The protest, which took place near a statue of the first Black man to integrate the university, led to disruptions and disrespectful behavior. The university is committed to supporting free expression and peaceful assembly, but disciplinary action may be taken against offending students. Overall, the incident has caused harm and set back efforts to erase the university's troubled past.
