Dear Black Students,<br />
You do matter. The numerous achievements and<br />
talents of Black students deserve to be recognized.<br />
As of Fall 2023, 11% of students on campus identified<br />
as Black or African American. Black students are<br />
disproportionately underrepresented in various areas<br />
on campus. <strong>Nineteen</strong> <strong>Fifty</strong>-<strong>Six</strong> is a Black studentled<br />
magazine that amplifies the voices within the<br />
University of Alabama’s Black community. It also<br />
seeks to educate students from all backgrounds on<br />
culturally important issues and topics in an effort<br />
to produce socially-conscious, ethical and wellrounded<br />
citizens.
