About This Event

In conjunction with the NC State’s Common Reading of Ta-Nahesi Coates' Between the World and Me, the NCSU Libraries and NC State’s Black Alumni Society co-present a panel discussion about the issues and experiences of college students, particularly African-American students. Featuring Dr. Blair Kelley (NC State), Dr. Mark Anthony Neal (Duke University), Dr. Yaba Blay (North Carolina Central University), and Professor Natalie Bullock Brown (St. Augustine’s University).

The NCSU Libraries Special Collections Research Center will bring a show and tell of items highlighting African American student life at NC State to view outside of the Teaching & Visualization Lab before the screening, from 6:30-7pm.
