Every semester, a new group of African American Studies students take AFAM 499: Capstone Seminar in Africana Studies. Over the course of a semester, they apply the skills and knowledge they have gained as AFAM majors to a research project on a topic of their choosing.

This semester, Grace Gipson, PhD and her AFAM 499 students put together a slideshow to share their work and what it means to them.
