Winston-Salem State University, a historically Black institution, has addressed the use of law enforcement on its campus after a viral video captured a student being arrested in a classroom after an apparent dispute with a professor
The incident began with what “appears to be a disagreement over a class assignment,” Haley Gingles, spokesperson for the university, told CNN. The student and the professor were not identified by Winston-Salem State, which is an HBCU, shorthand for historically Black colleges and universities. In the video, two police officers can be seen handcuffing the student, who is Black, as other students film the arrest and express shock at what is happening.
” The university’s chancellor, Elwood Robinson, released a letter to address the arrest. “We understand that the weaponization of police is a prevalent problem in our community; however, that is not what happened in this incident,” Robinson wrote. “We know this situation has caused a great deal of trauma to those involved and our campus community at large, but please know that every available resource is being extended to bring a resolution,” he continued.
