On Friday, Sept. 30, several students at Texas Tech University congregated at the Student Union Building in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement.
Students then moved to the free speech area where they held hands, formed a circle, said a prayer and sang “Lift Every Voice,” most commonly known as a Black pride song.
Some students held up signs that read “Black Lives Matter” and “Say Her Name, Sandra Bland.” The demonstration lasted for roughly 20 minutes before students disbursed.
