We had a strong contingent of Cal Alumni here in 2016 during the pipeline protests. Does that count? They skeedaddled when their tents blew away to Manitoba.

I'm going to have to reevaluate.

I didn't know there were that many people in North Dakota or from there.

Phil Jackson may not technically qualify as “black” but spending most of his life either playing or coaching in the NBA should at least get him an honorary seat at the table.
