Dalhousie law students stage walkout in solidarity against racism in class
After a nearly two-hour discussion between students and law faculty members, Cromwell addressed the crowd of future lawyers.
“The students are standing in solidarity, the faculty is standing in solidarity, now the school itself needs to stand with us as well and make real, lasting change,” said Hargreaves. “Frankly, needs to be updated to reflect the values of the Weldon tradition, and Dalhousie as a whole. That racism will not stand,” Hargreaves said. “It will not stand in the legal profession, it will not stand in the law school, and it will not stand in the university.”A statement to Global News from the dean of the Schulich School of Law states that “the law school takes any issues related to racist behaviour, and the need to address it, very seriously.
