Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Tiffany Thomas (AB Political Science, 2002) and Jenice Wilson (AB Cultural and Social Anthropology, 2002) share what is was like studying at Stanford as black women, as well as their experiences as black alumni today. They recall meeting one another and their deep involvement in the black community, participating in groups like the Black Student Union and Black Recruitment and Orientation Committee (BROC). They speak movingly of the friendships they made at Stanford, reflect on experiences of microaggressions, and advise current black students to remember they belong at Stanford and to get involved outside the black community as well as in it. After Stanford, Thomas went on to study at Berkeley Law and now works at Visa, and Wilson studied fashion at Parsons, later working in fashion design.
