History PhD Student & Grad Student Mentor

Hi, I’m Georga-Kay.

I'm currently a Ph.D. student in US History at Brown University. I'm also a first generation Jamaican student who is deeply passionate about higher education and mentorship. My research broadly focuses the history of African American workers on college campuses in the early 20th century. I love all things digital and public history and I look forward to sharing my work in both the academic and public spheres.

Living History Podcast

In episode one of the Living History podcast we discuss the legacy of college integration. I interview Black students to see what factors went into their choices to attend historically white serving institutions and how that affected their identities and what it meant for their families.
