From that medium article:

The vast majority of violence visited on the black community is committed by black people. There are virtually no marches for these invisible victims, no public silences, no heartfelt letters from the UC regents, deans, and departmental heads.

The writer might need to go for a walk sometime. I'm about 5 mins away from Berkeley in North Oakland, and there are So. Many. Marches and vigils to end gang and community violence. The author might not get to see them, and maybe the news they ingest doesn't talk about them, but the black community absolutely care.
Maybe those UC regents, deans and departmental heads need to take a look at themselves too.
I'm not saying there were no good points, but that sentence seemed like an egregious oversight.
