nu athlete sign petition supporting critical race theory
There's pushback on a proposed resolution that condemns the teaching of critical race theory at the University of Nebraska.
Two petitions have popped up online in opposition. One introduced by #WeAreOne Nebraska has gathered 1,500 signatures since Monday.Sign up for our Newsletters
Five hundred of those signatures are from current NU athletes such as Sadio Fenner.
"You're taking away an opportunity to learn and to grow as a person because you don't grow without having the conversations that I think critical race theory invites in the classroom," Fenner said.

Black Lives Matter Part One: Lincoln's Black history


People across Nebraska celebrated on Sept. 16. 
Just more than a month after the Big Ten announced it would postpone the 2020 fall football season due to COVID-19, the conference reversed that decision. Big Ten football teams, coaches, parents, fans and even former President Donald Trump got involved in pushing for this result. Nebraska was among the most vocal, with eight players suing the conference. 
And, on Sept. 16, those players and many more got their wish. The decision was big news nationwide, and the debate over whether it was the right choice still rages on.
For a couple of reasons, I felt discomfort in that moment. One reason was my feelings about playing football in the midst of a global pandemic — but that’s not the point.

The BLM movement and UNL's involvement in it: A timeline


2013
July 13: George Zimmerman is acquitted in the shooting and killing of Black unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin in Florida. Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch captain, shot Martin in February 2012 after calling 911 to report a “suspicious person” in the neighborhood.
Black Lives Matter is started by Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors and Opal Tometi. The movement is centered around protesting police brutality and other racially motivated violence against Black people. 
Nov. 25: The University of Nebraska-Lincoln hosts the “Not Here, Not Now, Not Ever” event following two racist incidents on campus. On Nov. 13, an Association of the Students of the University of Nebraska senator used the N-word and made other racist comments “during a debate over a resolution that would encourage students to not use derogatory language.” An ASUN committee voted not to remove him from the student government. The week prior to the event, the N-word was found written in chalk near the Nebraska Union.
