The What is Black series was held at Brock University throughout February in recognition of Black History Month and African Heritage Month. Hosted by the Black Students’ Association, the events provided an opportunity for the Brock community to hear from Black professional leaders in their fields and Brock student leaders, who came together for candid discussions about their experiences and how they overcame obstacles they’ve encountered.
