Cups As A Record Of Humans: Material Culture Effects On Social Communication, Bethany N. Lamb
Master of Humanities Capstone Projects
Drinking vessels are a uniquely universal tool. They are used in all cultures, pertaining but not limited to ceremony, practice, practicality and custom.

From Black Studies To Multiculturalism: The Evolution Of The Bolinga Black Cultural Resources Center At Wright State University, 1971-2018, Opolot Okia
History Faculty Publications
With the growth of Black studies departments and programs across the United States in the late 1960s and early 1970s, the field developed with a prominent multidisciplinary focus and a mission to affect meaningful social change.

Moving beyond academic programs, there is also very little research on Black cultural centers. Compounding this problem, the research on Black …
