Happy Friday AFRS family,

This Wednesday we hosted a beautiful open house at Santa Susana Hall, giving everyone a chance to meet the many programs and faculty that work alongside the department through a scavenger hunt (with many snacks included)! We wanted to thank everyone that showed up and made the event happen.

Last Thursday, on March 26th, Dr. Gammage and the Ethnics Studies Center for Research, Activism, and Community Empowerment (RACE) hosted a Inaugural Convening accompanied by Dr. Clenora Hudson-Weens, a renowned scholar & author of "Africana Womanism."

Good evening AFRS family,

We hope you've had an amazing last week before Spring break so far!

We wanted to inform you all of the Doctoral Research Study, hosted by Professor Mercer, and we want to further urge you all to participate if you have the chance! This study is aiming to highlight your voice on how the Ethnic Studies departments may contribute to inclusion and equity all around campus, in doing so, you'd have a chance of receiving a $20 Amazon gift card.

Last Wednesday, on the 18th, many were given the chance to attend the Mardi Gras Jazz event hosted by Dr. Brown at the Soraya.

It was a beautiful performance by the "Preservation Hall Jazz Band," that ultimately illustrated Black culture through the use of music across many moods.

Last Saturday many were given the opportunity to attend the 'Black Matador Family Brunch' event, and we are so grateful that you did!

Not only did this event host a space for Black Matadors alike, but it also granted students, and faculty, an abundant amount of resources for Black Matador success.

We appreciate everyone who came and enjoyed themselves!

This Friday we celebrated our Black Scholars Matter program and had the chance to listen to the message that their voices carried.

We wanted to thank the BSM panel for voicing issues such as the hardship that comes with being a Black scholar but also, the success that comes in many different shapes and sizes as well.

Moreover, being a Black scholar is just about academics as it is about our creativity, in which, was showcased in the beautiful fashion show that was given that illustrated Black culture in fashion throughout history!
