I, Too, Am Harvard:

A photo campaign highlighting the faces and voices of black students at Harvard College. Our voices often go unheard on this campus, our experiences are devalued, our presence is questioned-- this project is our way of speaking back, of claiming this campus, of standing up to say: We are here. This place is ours. We, TOO, are Harvard.

The #itooamharvard photo campaign is inspired by I, Too, Am Harvard, a play based on interviews with members of the black community exploring and affirming our diverse experiences as black students at Harvard College. The original play premieres on Friday March 7th, 2014 at 7 PM in Lowell Lecture Hall on the campus of Harvard College. facebook.com/itooamharvard @iTooAmHarvard #itooamharvard 248417

All,

I've always known that the very foundation of the psychosis of White Supremacy is deeply rooted in JEALOUSY AND ENVY. Look at the sheer BEAUTY of these students and tell me otherwise...

Oxford Tips a Hat to Harvard in ‘I, Too, Am Oxford’

Students of color at the British school, inspired by black students at Harvard, share their own struggles as “minorities” at an elite university.

The black students at Harvard seem to be on to something.

Students of color at Oxford University in the United Kingdom have launched their own social media campaign, “I, Too, Am Oxford,” highlighting things that have been said or suggested to them.

Dozens of photos have already been added to the Tumblr page, showing students holding up signs showing different micro-aggressions that they’ve been subjected to.

“A message that was consistently reaffirmed throughout the day was that students in their daily encounters at Oxford are made to feel different and Othered from the Oxford community. Hopefully this project will demonstrate that despite there being a greater number of students of colour studying at Oxford now than there has ever been before, there are still issues that need to be discussed,” the site declared. “In participating in ‘I, Too, Am Oxford,’ students of colour are demanding that a discussion on race be taken seriously and that real institutional change occur.”
