Welcome to Talk Like a Pirate's new “#PirateVoices” series, where we showcase ECU's diversity by amplifying Pirates' personal stories of searching, seeking treasure and chasing purpose.
In Episode 1 of Pirate Voices, ECU NAACP chapter President Kamari Purvis interviews alum Linda Thompson Thomas ’81 to discuss what it was and still can be like for a person of color on campus, along with the need for role models.
