School Flies Black Lives Matter Flag on Campus
Northwestern University has kicked off two weeks of events highlighting Black Lives Matter - the activist group slammed by Donald Trump as "a fuse-lighter in the assassinations" of several police officers.
On Tuesday, a Black Lives Matter flag was hoisted over the school's student center as 14 days of "student-organized and administration-backed" programs on the state of black lives and the Black Lives Matter movement began, The Daily Northwestern reports.
The events at the 166-year-old Illinois school of 21,000 are being held to "build community . build coalitions" and "unite different groups and students together," organizer Danielle Harris told the newspaper.
Last July, Donald Trump, now president-elect, said he believed the Black Lives Matter movement in some cases helped spark the killings of police officers.
The group has been "a fuse-lighter in the assassinations of these police officers," Trump told Fox News' Bill O'Reilly. "They certainly have ignited people and you see that ... It's a very, very serious situation and we just can't let it happen."
