St. Louis University Cancels Formal Apology for Slavery Role After Descendants Decline Participation

On March 26, St. Louis University planned a ceremony to apologize for its past enslavement of individuals. However, the Descendants of the St. Louis University Enslaved (DSLUE) withdrew, citing dismissive treatment. They demand meaningful reparations and urge the university to reform its reconciliation approach. Their concerns remain unaddressed.
