Asia Lee, a masters student in business administration from Chicago, speaks to Lamont Blackman, a senior from Chicago studying aviation, while students gather on the steps of Shryock Auditorium on Wednesday, Nov. 9, 2016, before a group reflection with Rev. Joseph Brown in response to Donald Trumps presidency. The reflection began with a performance of Amazing Grace and ended with speeches from Brown and Lee. Are we not feeling today like weve been thrown back in the bottom of a ship on our way to somewhere dangerous and death-inducing? said Brown, a professor of Africana Studies. So somebody suggested, even in the darkest hour, lets get together with just a little bit of light and find a way to tell each other you may have been blind, but oh, now you see.
