Earlier this year in February, West Point disbanded 12 racial, ethnic, and other peer groups that are central to the military’s core values.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in urging the U.S. Military Academy to restore these groups! #DONTFORGETDANNY

On October 3, 2011, Pvt. Chen was found dead in Afghanistan after weeks of hazing and racial harassment by his superiors. When he enlisted Danny did not know about the racism and culture of hazing in the military.
