We all know Racism is alive and well (whether you like to admit it not). When said acts of racism happen at your school, it is infuriating and heart breaking,” Maloke wrote. “My friend was not aware that they had done this and didn't even realize they had put this on her snapchat story until another friend of ours pointed it out. The University of North Dakota needs to take action against these students for this blatant act of racism.”Less than 12 hours after Maloke published her post, another Snapchat image surfaced, apparently screengrabbed, of four white students donning black, facial masks with the caption, “Black lives matter.”The campus police and the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities are investigating both incidents. The university said they will work to explore the best practices for diversity education at the school.“I have been disappointed to learn that we have people in our university community who don’t know that the kind of behavior and messaging demonstrated in these two photos is not ok, and that, in fact, it is inexcusable,” Kennedy said. “We value diversity and inclusion and take seriously respect for others as well as the exchange of different thoughts and ideas.”Twitter users took the site to express their disapproval of the North Dakota student's actions.<img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CtApNonWYAINYRN.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
