If you find yourself frequently watching Youtube or listening to podcasts while eating, you are going to love Lunch & Lit at Lesch Lending Library inside UK's Office of LGBTQ* Resources. Here at Lunch & Lit, we invite you to break bread with your neighbor while connecting with campus and community over free food as well as food-for-thought.
Following the success of the first Lunch and Lit, our second installment features a panel of some of the most influential UK staff, faculty, and Alums:
*Willie Carver Jr. -- Former Kentucky Teacher of the Year turned Activist & acclaimed Poet
*Frank X Walker -- Originator of the "Affriliachian" literary and cultural movement
*Greg Bourke -- One of the fourteen plaintiffs in the historic Obergfell vs. Hodges Supreme Court Decision (Same Sex Marriage Equality)
*Mariama J. Lockington -- Acclaimed author of numerous LGBTQ* BIPOC titles.
*Rachel Elliott -- Award winning graphic novel and comic writer and artist.
Breaking Ground: UK Trailblazers Celebrating Firsts is sponsored by our friends in the CARES First-Generation department
A free, light lunch is provided on a first-come, first-serve basis, so feel free to bring your own lunch to enjoy during the talk!
