\nMalik D. Hollingsworth<\/strong>
\nMy name is Malik D. Hollingsworth, and I am 4th year student majoring in Women’s and Gender Studies with a minor in Theatre from Memphis, TN. I started my Vanderbilt career as an Electrical Engineering major and began to notice the disconnect between myself and my professors, and how racial inequity was a major informant for that disconnect. I started doing racial justice work in order to examine how disconnects such as the one I and other students have felt can be managed and alleviated for other students. A fun fact about me is I have had a different job every year that I’ve been at Vanderbilt.<\/span><\/p>\n![\"430973_10200187556710764_499261919_n\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.vanderbilt.edu\/t2-my\/my-prd\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2453\/2017\/04\/430973_10200187556710764_499261919_n.jpg\")
