Video: MUW Students Take to the Streets for Justice and Awareness

COLUMBUS, Miss. (WCBI) – Young people from around the area took to the streets Wednesday night to call for Justice and Change.

Students at Mississippi University for Women held a march on the Columbus Campus to raise awareness of the violence affecting today’s youth, especially those in the minority community.

” Every day, almost every day, when you turn on the news, or you get on Facebook or Instagram you see another person of color dying. Every day, somebody innocent is sitting dead for nothing. People are dying for nothing. So, when you see that as a person of color, or even a white person, you come because you want to show the solidarity.”

The group says they may hold more marches in the future..
