Free activities such as a barber, massage therapists, a comedy show, and a live DJ will highlight a social on April 6.
The event, which is free and open to the public, kicks off the annual Black and Latinx Summit. The social will be at 7 p.m. Friday, April 6, in the Prairie Room of the Bone Student Center.
Sponsored by Illinois State University’s Dean of Students Office and Diversity Advocacy, the Black and Latinx Summit is a conference for current high school and college students who have an interest in examining the intersection of hip hop music and culture. This year’s theme is “Beats, Rhymes & Life.” Assistant Professor of Hip Hop A.D. Carson from the McIntire School of Music at the University of Virginia will be the keynote speaker.
