Students and citizens in Bowling Green, OH kicked off Not In Our Town week on Nov. 18, a citywide event of daily activities and concluding with a downtown parade on Saturday.
Student organizations at Bowling Green State University known as The Collective have planned the week’s activities, including Transgender Day of Remembrance, advocacy training, and a Not In Our Town meeting.
Bowling Green students and citizens have stepped up after a number of racist acts over the past year. The most recent incident falsely accused the university’s Black Student Union of posting racially charged tweets against white students on campus, according to an article in The BG News.
Not In Our Town is teaming up with the BG24 News team, an on-campus and student-run television news station, to produce on-the-scene updates of the week’s activities.
