Hi ducks!💚 Pizza & Politics is back. Join us tomorrow at 5:15 in Bartolottis Pizza for a discussion on civil rights with Professor Alison Gash.

We will be fiddling into how civil rights are being rolled back right now and why the story is bigger than who’s in the White House.

Bring your questions, pizza’s on us!
