Dear Angie, 

As a fellow negro college student, this is just to let you know that we here at U.R.I. as well as the World are very much aware of your situation. We are proud of you and your stand and I want to encourage you to brace your shoulders and stand tall under your burden.

It might encourage you to know that the majority of the fight here at U.R.I. is being carried on by white students as we negros comprise a very small percentage of the student body.
