A Letter from the Harvard Music Department

The Harvard Music Department joins millions of Americans and people across the world in condemning the murder of George Floyd by the Minneapolis police on Monday May 25, 2024. We first offer our deepest condolences to the family of George Floyd and his children and grandchildren. The heinous brutality of his murder, captured by a bystander on video, has shed blinding light on the lethal effect of racial discrimination in policing and criminal justice. We support the protesters whose actions and organizing efforts are committed to bringing about real changes in law enforcement, criminal justice, and systemic racism.
