Building Black Futures Through
Black Study

The Department of Black Study is committed to nurturing Black thrival at UCR, Southern California, and beyond. One such effort is through our course, BLKS 195 – Black Study Inland Empire Community Initiative, where students are mentored by faculty and a community organization, artist, or activist, in a project of their design. Many of our remote courses are open to community scholars from around the world, as we seek to connect our students with Black Queer and Trans scholars and artists who are largely disenfranchised from access to the academy. Please reach out to us if you are interested in partnering with our students or faculty.
