Black in Boston
Hosted by graduate students Terrence Johnson and Brandi Griffin. “A black woman and a black queer man from the south give our perspective on pursuing advanced degrees, moving away from home, and life in a new space. We plan to talk about a wide variety of topics and issues from what’s in the news to what’s happening in pop culture from our perspective, backed by research and fact.
