Explore “Nothing Servile:” Native Resistance at the Santee Normal Training SchoolBlack Resistance and Persistenceis a collection of stories about anti-Black racism in America and the lasting legacy of the transatlantic slave trade. Slavery legally “ended” in 1865, but Black people still experience violence, systematic disenfranchisement, and exclusion from health care, education, and economic and political life. At its core, this exhibition is about the fight for justice, equity, and inclusion.
Explore Black Resistance and PersistenceThese are some of the questions students in Dr. Jennifer Esperanza’s Food and Culture class at Beloit College thought about as they explored food’s many meanings. In this exhibit, students share stories about food and what it means to them, their families, and those around them.
We invite you to visit the exhibit to read these stories, learn a new recipe, and think about what food means to you.
