With the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops designating Friday, September 9<sup>th<\/sup> as a Day of Prayer for peace, the Center for Social Concerns and Multicultural Student Programs and Services called for the Notre Dame Community and Nevada fans to join us in standing for <em>Solidarity for Racial Justice. <\/em>\u00a0More than one hundred and seven faculty, alumni, administrators, graduate and undergraduate students and campus visitors processed from Geddes Hall to the Jesus statute with the inscription \u201cCome to Me\u201d ending at Father Sorin\u2019s statute.\u00a0 Victims of the senseless violence that has plagued our Nation over the past two years were lamented throughout the thirty minute service. Thank you to those who joined our Solidarity for Racial Justice campaign. During the remainder of the fall semester, you are invited to attend events sponsored by numerous departments in support of the campaign. The next is the Book Club, where we will read <u>Citizen <\/u>by Claudia Rankine.\u00a0 If you are interested in join the club, contact Kyle Lantz at the Center for Social Concerns. You should note that Ms. Rankine is scheduled to visit campus January 2017.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mail.google.com\/mail\/u\/0\/?ui=2&amp;ik=4ea733b236&amp;view=fimg&amp;th=1574e5f18d2d0cfc&amp;attid=0.1&amp;disp=inline&amp;realattid=1546113364224114688-local0&amp;safe=1&amp;attbid=ANGjdJ_XP7S01-6jOAHtlEOhAWDTnSuOAa-60uAZM807P0hGALxpVxdOMO91TOjX7uLbnhpIPdiXv-rFkctcUpbcd_IMYxZvxsyQpBS9-lVybdHd5N62XuXEI-dGq_U&amp;ats=1474488741277&amp;rm=1574e5f18d2d0cfc&amp;zw&amp;sz=w1680-h871\" alt=\"Displaying IMG_20160913_175307207.jpg\" width=\"217\" height=\"124\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Thank you to the companies, Notre Dame Departments and DC of ND clubs for participating in the 2016 MSPS Picnic.
