NORMAN, Okla. — A rally against racism was heated as students demanded change from the University of Oklahoma on Tuesday in Norman.
The response comes after two former students made a racist video that went viral and sparked outrage across the country. The students since have withdrawn from OU, one of them expelled from her sorority.
