Partial Transcript: "It's ridiculous, I mean I understand you know if you came from a community where it wasn't talked about or maybe everybody looked like you, maybe you don't know what it's like to have a racial action taken against you.

Partial Transcript: Myrcka: Well the fact that the RAs didn't take action specifically when a woman of colored asked to be taken from her room because her room mate threatened to kill her and they didn't move her. Yet a white woman was moved right away for asking to be moved out of her room. It's as if the administration doesn't take our issues seriously then why would the rest of the campus or students take our issues seriously?
Mari: What sort of message do you think that sends to the student body? especially students of color?
Myrcka: A very negative one. I think it perpetuates this thought that we are "dramatic" and don't have a reason to be upset, and we do that was a very real reason. Her room mate threatened to kill her. The fact that anna had to keep telling her story just kind of, it was unnecessary, and I think like after a while people decided "this unnecessary you weren't moved it wasn't serious."
Segment Synopsis: Myrcka talks about ways the actions of the administration at Antioch college have reproduced racism on campus.

Partial Transcript: The POC decided to get together and be in this room away from campus as a disappearance, and we want to see if anyone is going to notice that we're gone. Are people going to notice that we aren't in our classrooms, are people going to notice that we aren't at work, aren't in our rooms, etc. Are they going to text us, are our friends going to miss us when we aren't at lunch or at dinner? Are professors going to notice that we aren't there? Women of color don't speak up in class much, are professors going to notice that?
Segment Synopsis: Here Myrcka speaks about what inspired the POC students to take a day of action and how they came up with this strategy.

Partial Transcript: I think a POC hall is necessary on this campus if we want it. This is our decision and if we want it I don't think anyone who is a POC has a right to challenge that, and I understand if you've not heard of whats happened and you think this is self segregation but if you've had Ramen thrown at you in the shower wouldn't you be pretty pissed? If you had condoms and lube thrown at you while you were in the shower? If that was me I know I wouldn't want to come back to the school, I'd be pretty pissed.....And for administration to sit on and think about this for so long without giving us any answers is ridiculous.
Segment Synopsis: Myrcka explains the attacks leading up to the demands for a POC hall on campus.
