Join the Black Studies Collaboratory and the Department of African American Studies for our first Small Grantee Symposium, featuring the projects of some of the 27 recipients of our Spring and Summer 2022 Small Grantee Program. Organized as a series of conversations around Black space, place, sound, archives, study, healing and Black futures, the symposium centers new ways of telling stories about Black life.
Professors Nikki Jones, Nadia Ellis, and Courtney Morris and current and former BSC fellows, Ms. Daphne Muse, Michael J. Myers II, and Dr. Victoria Grubbs will join us as panel moderators. Audience participation, engagement and fellowship is welcome and encouraged.
Please join us to celebrate our grantees, learn about their innovative projects, and dialogue together in community!
