  • Policy Proposal: an Anti-Racist West Point
    June 25th, 2020 POLICY PROPOSAL: AN ANTI-RACIST WEST POINT To West Point leadership, the Long Gray Line, and the citizens we serve to protect: This is a call to action. The United States Military Academy has not taken the necessary strides towards uprooting the racism that saturates its history. We are calling upon West Point and its leadership to redress three major failures: 1. Systemic racism continues to exist at West Point. 2. Anti-racism is not part of the curriculum at West Point. 3. The conditions for an anti-racist space are not present at West Point. By failing in these areas, West Point ultimately fails to produce leaders of character equipped to lead diverse organizations. In other words, West Point is failing to accomplish its mission. We believe West Point has an opportunity to lead the way for the military and the Nation by proving its aims towards “eradicating racism,” as the Superintendent wrote to the West Point community on June 4th, 2020. This can be accomplished by committing to measurable, anti-racist policies and systems which would address these overarching failures. This policy proposal is a compilation of firsthand experiences and calls to action from members of the Long Gray Line, highlighting the necessary action steps for fighting racism and normalizing anti- racism at the Academy. We encourage you to read this proposal in its entirety in order to understand the prevalence of racism at the Academy and our vision for its elimination. Though we are deeply disturbed, we hold fast to the hope that our Alma Mater will take the necessary steps to champion the values it espouses.
