Join us for a special presentation with Crystal Wilkinson, award-winning author and former Kentucky Poet Laureate, as she shares from her newest work Praisesong for the Kitchen Ghosts: Stories and Recipes from Five Generations of Black Country Cooks.

Blending memoir, family history, and recipes, Wilkinson celebrates the enduring role of Black women in sustaining families, preserving heritage, and uplifting community through food, storytelling, and cultural traditions.

This event is presented by the Women of Color in the Academy Project (WOCAP), with co-sponsorship from the STAMPS Desis Lab, the Institute for the Humanities and the Institute for Research on Women & Gender
