"My time in African Diaspora & the World was a truly transformative and insightful experience. After my first semester, I felt more than ever challenged to seek out more about the world around me. I learned to be more critical of normally-held understandings of my place in the world. By my second semester, I constantly brought ideas from ADW into my everyday conversations. It felt almost impossible to engage with my environment in the same way I used to. I can truly say that ADW changed my way of looking and of being." – Osarugue Otebele, C’2021, Graduate Student at Dept. of Film and Media, UC Berkeley.
