Admin Town Hall November 5, 2020
Description:

One strike organizer notes that they decided to name themselves "after some of the old white men who have made Haverford the racist institution that it is today." In the meeting, the strike organizers read through the strike demands while both administrators and strike organizers seek clarity on various points. This video and transcript were saved on the public student Strike Google Drive. Links to the video recording and transcript were also included in the daily strike update for November 5, 2020.
