THE JOHN D. O'BRYANT AFRICAN AMERICAN INSTITUTE FOR 26
DAYS TO SAVE THE BUILDING FROM DEMOLITION
THE ADMINISTRATION WILL MAKE ITS DECISION ON THURSDAY, 10. MAY. COME OUT

THE BUS AGAIN.

The building was erected after the assassination of MLK to quiet Black
students on campus. Initially the building was back in the campus, but
due to campus expansion it is now at the center of campus. The
administration wants to demolish the building and condense the Institute
onto one floor of a building at the end of campus. Currently the
Institute has a whole building devoted to it which consists of a library
devoted to African American literature and is a focal point for the
surrounding Black community
