I love that Concordia released this obituary for Clarance Bayne, praising how he was one of the people who occupied the computer center to protest against anti-Black racism in the same week they arrested three students for saying Free Palestine.
Clarence Bayne (1932–2024): ‘It is by our actions that we define ourselves and by our inaction that we allow others to define us’ - Concordia University
The Concordia professor emeritus was a trailblazing activist and organizer with the Black community for more than 50 years.
Huh. "On October 28, 2022 Concordia released an official apology for its mishandling of race-based student complaints and subsequent outcomes of the 1969 Sir George Williams student protest." Interestingly, the Concordia description of the events doesn't mesh well with the Wikipedia page...
