Photo gallery Soul Talk: Food, then discussion

February 12, 2022

Soul Talk, a UW–Madison Black History Month event, featured plenty of good eating and vigorous discussion. A soul food dinner was followed by an interactive talk about social justice and Black representation in the media in the Feb. 11 event. It even featured an airing of the 1990s TV series Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Plenty of students showed up for the event held at the Multicultural Student Lounge inside the Red Gym.
