The purpose of this petition is to create a call to action. We, the students of Wingate University and other informed American citizens, are urging the Wingate Police Department to reverse their actions on November 17, 2018. It has become evident to many that the said department racially discriminated students on campus by issuing under-age drinking violations to a predominately African-American party room whilst allowing Caucasian individuals to party upstairs. This call to action is supported by damning video evidence provided not only by individuals within the "busted" party, but also by Caucasian individuals who were partaking in the "unbusted" partying. By signing this petition, you are agreeing that you believe students involved in said event have been violated and wish to see action taken on their behalf.

Its obvious what happened here. Dont mess up these students futures over biased policing.
we see what happened and it aint right. wingate needs to do better than this.
UNFAIR!! Treat everyone the same if you are gonna enforce the rules. Why only one room?
The severity of the punishment should not be due to the color of skin, I’m more than happy to sign this petition
We are not bad people, we are young adults, we understand when are in the wrong but lets not give the example to us young adults that exemplifies that only people of color will pay for their mistakes.
✊
SHOW THEM JUSTICE! Everybody is there for the same reason, treat them that way!

This is ridiculous. Campus security needs to stop picking and choosing who they want to target. Laws are supposed to be for everyone.
