After the University of Missouri abruptly cancelled the Legion of Black Collegians’ (LBC) “Black 2 School Block Party” amid anti-DEI pressure, the Missouri Students Association (MSA) passed a bill highlighting that the university violated its anti-discrimination policy, Columbia Missourian reported.
After the university asserted that it wouldn’t meet the demands, MSA President Logan Kuykendall said the group wanted to ensure LBC felt their support.
We want to make sure that we, as MSA, are doing everything we can to support the legion,” Kuykendall said.
“The name of the ‘Black 2 Class Block Party’ proposed by LBC suggested such exclusivity.
In August 2025, Missouri Students for Justice in Palestine sued President Dr. Mun Choi after the organization was banned from participating in the 2024 Homecoming parade, according to KOMU.
