Welcome
Welcome to the African American Cultural Center
The African American Cultural Center is a student success unit housed under the Division of Academic and Student Affairs (DASA). The AACC is open to and serves all identities. We provide activities and programs that enhance academic excellence for the campus and surrounding communities.
The AACC Library and @ncsumifamilia had a blast creating community, discussing AfroLatinx authors, stories, and experiences, and decorating abanicos!
Thank you for coming and sharing your stories with us❤️
Looking forward to books by or about AfroLatinx folx? Check out the AACC Library’s Staff Picks and BookLists page, linked in bio!
