The "Our Roots Say That We're Sisters" podcast series features women students, faculty, staff and alumnae of color who have exhibited leadership, positive impact or social change in their personal or professional roles, especially those who remain unsung "sheroes."

This month's podcast highlights the story of Valerie Wilson Reed, Sp '79, author, owner of culinary entertainment business Valcooks, LLC, and longtime Marquette volunteer.

Associated with Marquette's campus mural project, this project showcases the diversity, richness and complexity of our campus and provides a way for campus community members to see themselves and their potential elevated. It also makes visible the interconnected nature of the experiences and struggles of many women of color.

For more information about the Our Roots project, contact Dr. Jacki Black at [email protected].
