UVA Students Make Demands Regarding Thomas Jefferson Statue and Racial Quotas

A coalition of far-left student groups at the University of Virginia has issued a lengthy set of demands to the school administration.

The Minority Rights Coalition at the University of Virginia issued the set of 10 demands earlier this week to coincide with an event called the “March to Reclaim Our Grounds.”

The Daily Caller reports the list of demands calls the statue of Thomas Jefferson on campus “an emblem of white supremacy,” and wants it “re-contextualized with a plaque to include that history.”

They also want to rename buildings currently named after “prominent white supremacists,” double black student enrollment and require students to be educated on “white supremacy, colonization, and slavery as they directly relate to Thomas Jefferson.”

Jefferson, by the way, founded the University of Virginia in 1819.
