In support of Black History Month, the Yale student government sent out an email with suggestions on how non-people of color can contribute to “Black joy.”
The Yale College Council’s first tip is to “politely” allow black students to jump ahead of you when lines at the dining hall are too long.
The second suggests taking off your coat and placing it over a sidewalk puddle so “your Black friends can walk with ease.”
The third asks for support of black-owned businesses in Yale’s hometown of New Haven, Connecticut.
