Northeastern has named its first George Floyd Social Justice Scholarship recipients: three students who are active in promoting equality in their communities. Read about this news and more in this week’s edition of Noteworthy at Northeastern.

The George Floyd Social Justice Scholarship was created in response to Floyd’s death and the deaths of Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and numerous Black Americans who were tragically and senselessly killed. Their deaths sparked mass protests throughout the country and around the world last summer—in the midst of a global pandemic—as demonstrators called out systematic racism, inequality and injustice, and urged communities to put forth intentional programs geared toward a greater focus on social justice.
