This Week's Link(s): 

The question about 'what to say' has come up a few times recently for staff and students. I borrowed the article below from one of Dorienne's assignments to share with you. It's very helpful. 

'....are you confused about whether to say Black, POC, African American, and don’t want to get it wrong? Me too. This article helped me better understand which terms I might want to use.'
