The Black Student Unity Movement of Rutgers Camden was founded in 1969 by a group of black students at the school. While segregation in public education was deemed unconstitutional by the decision in Brown v. Board of Education, universities still had policies in place that caused de facto segregation. On February 10, 1969, three students from the Black Student Unity Movement interrupted a political science class that was taking place on Rutgers Camden's campus and dispersed papers that listed the movement's demands. Some demands listed by the Black Student Unity Movement were "that all racist faculty be removed from the university, a Urban Education Department be established, and that the new library addition be named after Paul Robeson". The movement was unable to get their demands met by Rutgers University immediately, but in 1991, Paul Robeson Library was established on the Rutgers Camden campus.

On June 20, 2020, students of Rutgers University–Camden created a petition that called for, "the removal of the Walt Whitman statue which stands tall in the middle of our campus." Walt Whitman was an American poet and writer, who purchased a house in Camden in 1864, where he wrote his defining work, "Leaves of Grass". In some of his works, Walt Whitman referred to black individuals as "baboons" and "wild brutes" and had utilized a racial slur against black people. Many Black intellectuals have called for these comments to be discussed at the same time as praise of Walt Whitman. Rutgers University Camden addressed the concerns proposed in the petition by hosting virtual meetings with community members, university faculty, students, and historians. In 2021, the statute of Walt Whitman was moved from in front of the Rutgers University–Camden campus center to a garden space on campus and included contextualization of the complex history.
