Abstract
In this oral history, Erica Dennings (AB French Studies, 1985) reminisces about hanging out with friends in Otero and Ujamaa and her love for Stanford’s black community, which has grown stronger with the passing years. Dennings recalls her mentors, academic challenges, the transformative experience of studying abroad in Paris, and her involvement in the Black House and La Maison Française (The French House). She describes her life after Stanford, including her involvement in Stanford alumni groups, and offers advice for current Stanford students and the Black Alumni Association.
