By Tyler Hudson–

200 University of Louisville students gathered on the SAC ramp today to make a statement about black lives and police brutality.

“The purpose of this protest is to interrupt U of L students’ normal daily lives, and show that the events that are going on in our nation are relevant to everybody,” Jamaica Williams said.

The protest was an effort to raise awareness for the Black Lives Matter movement. Students participating wore all-black and laid face down on the ramp leading up to the SAC.
