Q&A: Karla Foster leads UW campus community in celebration of Black History Month

Q&A with Karla Foster, the Pathways African-American Campus and Community liaison, who created the Black History Month student planning committee in 2014, a student-led committee that plans events and programs for Black History Month. Since its implementation, black students on campus have had the opportunity to celebrate themselves, discuss issues surrounding their lives and college experience and make memorable friendships in the process. This year’s theme is called “In Living Color: An Exploration of Blackness and Intersectionality.”
