Black Publications In addition to public events of art and culture, the past 50 years have seen a number of student-created publications including Aya, The Black Voice, and Rapped in Black. While each publication had a different focus, the aim of Aya provided a grounding for the why behind these publications: "[to expose] readership to information that the White ruling class — of our world, of our country, and of our college — does not present."
