Last month, the University of Kentucky Martin Luther King Center, in collaboration with the Office for Institutional Diversity and the Office for Student Success, hosted the 2023 Men of Color Symposium. Here, more than 100 men and women, ranging from UK students, faculty, staff and participants from other universities, gathered to embrace, acknowledge and support the holistic needs of men of color under this year’s theme of “Be Your Own Brand: Build It, Be It, Believe It.”
