Diversity Summit 2021: Seeking Grace: Black Women Finding Self | University of Denver

Since 2013, the “Seeking Grace” project, a collaboration of DU Special Collections and Archives and the Sistah Network, named for Grace Mabel Andrews, the first Black woman from Colorado to receive a BA from DU, has worked to document the lives and experiences of DU’s Black alumnae. Join past and present research team members, including project founder Dr. Nicole Joseph (now at Vanderbilt) to learn how the project has evolved since its beginning, and how research that centers and lifts up Black women’s lived experiences and epistemologies is a critical part of creating a more just and equitable university.
