They do, I would have thought it was as beneficial for black students to realise how much their white tutors and peers are an integral part of the school than the other way around.
The students who were campaigning for this and who wanted a say are not only the black students, it's crazy it's been taken to such a place and made to be a black v white issue. If you hear the pov of the students involved the whole drama seems a massive overreaction.
