The University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff’s School of Agriculture, Fisheries and Human Sciences (SAFHS) is celebrating Black History Month with two on-campus screenings of “Hip Hop Farmers,” Dr. Obadiah Njue, interim dean/director for the School, said. The video series encourages minority youth to consider agricultural careers and highlights the broad services of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
There will be two screenings of the film, both of which are free and open to the public. The first will take place Wednesday, Feb. 19, from 4 to 5 p.m. at the Henderson-Young Hall Auditorium (1999 John Kennedy Dr.). The second screening is set for Wednesday, Feb. 26, from 4 to 5 p.m. at the Woodard Hall Auditorium (1200 N. University Dr.). Following the screenings, the filmmakers and cast will speak with the public. Snacks will be provided.
