Bernie Sanders holds town hall for college students at George Mason University

A national college student town hall was hosted by presidential candidate Bernie Sanders at George Mason University Wednesday night.

The event featured thousands of excited college students gathered together to hear Bernie Sanders speak.

Ja’Lisha Urquhart, a George Mason student, opened the night and introduced Sanders with a moving speech about society’s expectations of her as a black woman, and how someone like Sanders is “her inspiration” because “he believes black lives truly do matter.”

After Urquhart’s primer, Sanders took the stage for over an hour and a half. He gave the floor to three students from Georgetown University, George Washington University and the University of Maryland to discuss issues of importance before launching into the meat of his speech.
