Video: Howard U. Students Protest, Saying Victims of Sexual Assault Deserve Better Treatment

A crowd of students chanted, “‘No’ means NO! ‘No’ means NO!” outside a dorm at Howard University where a woman said she was raped by another student. When she made the allegations on social media, upset by what she said was a lack of concern from university officials, students quickly turned it into a broader protest about safety for women on campus. Their social media campaign — #takebackthenightHU — was trending on Twitter in Washington, as protesters gathered outside the dorm, sitting in the grass and filling part of Georgia Avenue.
