Student Voices
Othello is not defined by any one single person — it is a collective. Othello is about UW and the partnership; a partnership that has led to this space that will give so much more opportunities. And that is why I am in awe; I cannot wait for the stories that will be shared here, the colors that will gleam through the window, the sounds that will bang the walls. excerpts from a spoken word performance at the opening of Othello-UW Commons in January 2019
