For the past 11 years, Taste of Soul has grown to become the largest street festival, family celebration and economic engine in all of Los Angeles. This year the USC Trojans have decided to join in the celebration. “The University of Southern California (USC) is proud to partner with the Taste of Soul Family Festival. Our participation is evidence of our desire to help celebrate the importance of the extraordinary cultural event,” said USC Vice President of Civil Engagement Earl Paysinger.
