Hi WashU alum,
I am reaching out to members of our Black alumni community to make sure you know about this one-of-a-kind travel opportunity with a renowned WashU faculty member and leader. In the years following World War I, Paris became a haven to many African Americans — including luminaries such as Josephine Baker, Langston Hughes and Eugene Bullard. Discover how African American culture shaped Paris in the Jazz Age and beyond on a seven-night trip to the City of Lights.
Don't miss out on this experience of a lifetime, only 12 spots remain.
All the best, Elizabeth Williams-Johnson, AB ’10, MSW ’17 Director, Diverse Alumni Networks

Adrienne Davis is well-known for her work in the areas of gender and race relations, theories of justice and reparations, and feminist legal theory. As a teacher and scholar, she focuses on “the law of daily life,” or how law regulates and affects people’s daily interactions, decisions, and identities.
For nearly a decade, Davis applied her expertise to make Washington University a more equitable place for all to work and learn as the university’s first vice provost for faculty affairs and diversity. She also served as the inaugural director of the Center for the Study of Race, Ethnicity & Equity, created in 2019 to accelerate the university’s capacity to study race and ethnicity and shape discourse on these complex and crucial issues.
