Former Dean, Tom Brown, speaks with La Hermandad
By Annaliese Martinez (Ethnic Studies and English Major)
The talk by former Saint Mary’s Dean Tom Brown made me even more grateful to be a student at Saint Mary’s. During my time at Saint Mary’s, I’ve often reflected on the struggle and sacrifice my family has gone through in order for me to attend college, but I had little knowledge about the sacrifices former students made in order to make the campus more inclusive. I was astonished by how former SMC students willingly gave up their professional basketball careers by protesting Dean of Students Odell Johnson’s termination, or how students fasted in the Chapel to demand better conditions for students of color, and I know that as a Mexican-American, I would not be able to attend Saint Mary’s College were it not for the activism of these students. What stood out to me the most from Tom’s presentation was when he shared students’ demands from the Chapel fast decades ago. While many of the demands are still relevant to our current climate and there is still work to be done, I'm grateful to the 历史系 for sponsoring La Hermandad and allowing us to have these important conversations.
