Being Black at UARK Part 2
from YOUARK
This week we join our Hosts, Summer Johnson and Xit Gonzalez, in continuing the conversation around the viral hashtag, Black at UARK. Junior Biomedical Engineering major, Breanna Kilgore, speaks about her experience being a black student at the University of Arkansas and her connection with #BlackatUark. In the thread of the hashtag, a flood of personal stories shed light on the struggles of black students at the University of Arkansas. This made the campus- students, faculty, and all- question their current state and how to fix things. Many initiatives were put in place to address the problem of exclusion, racism, frustration, and anxiety black students faced on campus, but did these initiatives actually spark change? Check out the #BlackatUark stories here.
