The LALC and Africana studies Senior research presentations went well this past Saturday. Unfortunately, not many people were able to come, however there was good representation among the faculty and LALC and Africana studies majors. Topics varied between modern slavery in the NBA to urban agriculture and Indigenous cultural practices and rights  in Latin America. 

Students presented and after  group was done they sat in the front and were asked question as a panel. The questions the audience asked were thought provoking and enabled the students to expand on, or clarify their research. These presentations demonstrated the impressive knowledge of our LALC and Africana studies majors. Congrats!
