多年来，北卡罗莱纳大学教堂山分校的黑人学生和教职员工对他们被对待的方式表示失望。另外，他们还自称正在应对校警越来越多的关注。他们指出这所大学的黑人学生和教师太少了。
Last month, several hundred students at UNC protested what they saw as another example of the school's failure to support students and teachers of color.
上个月，北卡罗莱纳大学教堂山分校的数百名学生抗议了他们认为的学校未能支持有色人种师生的另一个案例。
The protests started after university leaders first decided not to vote on offering tenure to Nikole Hannah-Jones, a Black American journalist. Tenure gives a lifetime position to a professor.
这次抗议始于这所大学的领导最初投票决定不给黑人记者尼古拉·汉娜琼斯提供终生教职。终生教职给教授提供了终身职位。
Those involved in the decision not to vote on tenure for Hannah-Jones said they were concerned about her ability to teach. The university had also gotten emails from newspaper publisher Walter Hussman, Jr., for whom the university's journalism school is named. Hussman is a major donor to the school. In his emails, he raised questions about Hannah-Jones' prize-winning work for The New York Times, called The 1619 Project.
那些投票决定不给汉娜琼斯提供终身教职的人士表示，他们担心她的教学能力。该大学还收到了报纸出版商小沃尔特·哈斯曼的电子邮件，该大学的新闻学院就是以他的名字命名的。哈斯曼是该学院的主要捐助人。他在邮件中，对汉娜琼斯在《纽约时报》的获奖作品“1619项目”提出了质疑。
Released in 2019, The 1619 Project aims to tell a story of American history with slavery at the center of the country's founding. Some American states have banned schools from using The 1619 Project materials in classrooms.
发布于2019年的“1619项目”旨在讲述黑奴在美国建国中的历史故事。美国有些州已经禁止学校在课堂上使用“1619项目”的材料。

在抗议和广泛批评之后，这所大学上月底投票决定为汉娜琼斯提供终生教职。但是她拒绝了这个职位。相反，她接受了华盛顿特区霍华德大学的终身教职。
