Congratulations to Gator alumnus and acting great, Delroy Lindo (BFA '04), and the cast and crew of "Sinners. The film took home four this weekend including Best Actor, Best Original Screenplay, Best Original Score and Best Cinematography. When he visited students in 2025 he shared this wisdom about his time here, “[SFSU] worked with me so that I could do the classes, and I will always have a profound gratitude and appreciation for what State provided me."

Black history forever! SFSU Africana Studies Professor Tiffany Caesar appeared on KQED Forum this week to discuss . “We at San Francisco State University pride ourselves on truth. We pride ourselves on inclusivity and diversity.”

This year, though, the Trump administration’s attacks on diversity, equity and inclusion have put a chill on the celebrations. We talk about how we arrived at a place where honoring Black history is being questioned just five years after the so-called racial reckoning of 2020.

We are proud of our Black history at SFSU! We are home to the first College of Ethnic Studies, demanded by students on strike. Our alumni include former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown, astronaut Yvonne Cagle and Professors Joseph White and Vincent Matthews.

For Black History Month, we acknowledge the milestones and exceptional people who have helped to make the California State University what it is today: a place of academic rigor, exceptional achievement and pioneering inclusiveness.
