Black History Month

It goes without saying that Black history forms all of our history, not just in the US but globally. Felt student population is predominately black and brown and come from various parts of the world, and have suffered first hand from the fall out of colonialism and unfair trade. So, this month, we will strive to learn from our students and to listen to their stories and words, as we elevate their voices.

Felt believes that diversity and inclusion is the keystone to a truly beautiful, creative and equitable community and that representation is the way forward. So, to leave you with the wise words of one of our students, Fatoumata, from Sudan “you cannot make food with just one flavor, it is the spices and the added ingredients that make us feel full.”
