#TheRealUW: Students tell stories of racial bias, UW ‘not doing enough’

After three hate incidents occurred within one week, University of Wisconsin students created a platform to share stories about the importance of including students of color.

#TheRealUW began trending on Twitter shortly after a hate incident occurred Sunday. According to a Facebook post by Karie Le, the Vietnamese victim, a middle-aged white man spat on her and told her to “go back to China” outside the Student Activity Center.
