Supporters,

I am urging you to forward this petition to your relatives, friends, and colleagues. 

We are beginning a new year (2025). Hopefully, we will achieve our goal of removing Hampton University’s disgraceful pirate mascot and replacing it with one that reflects Hampton’s extraordinary excellence. Let’s complete this task during 2025  

Remember, you can also contact the university’s president and other staff decision makers regarding this petition. 

 Sincerely,

Elaine B. Johnson
