Overview: A Mile in My Shoes, the acclaimed traveling exhibition from the Empathy Museum, came to NYU in Fall 2025. It featured accounts from their famous collection alongside stories contributed by members of the NYU community, the exhibition explores our shared humanity through quiet moments of listening.  

Through a collaboration between the Office of the President and Africa House, we will be amplifying one of the NYU voices featured, Prof. Offiong Aqua. Join us for an evening of insightful conversations as we walk a mile in Prof. Offiong Aqua's shoes.
