Statement in Solidarity with UDC and Fellow HBCUs  

On Tuesday, February 1, 2022, the first day of Black History Month, the University of the District of Columbia (UDC), Howard University, and at least fifteen other Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) reportedly received bomb threats. Tzedek DC is proudly headquartered on the clinical floor at UDC’s David A. Clarke School of Law, where we have the privilege of working with UDC students. We at Tzedek DC condemn these threats, continue with our commitment to rejecting racism and hatred in all forms, and are in firm solidarity with UDC and its fellow HBCUs.
