Had an energizing day at the 14th annual HBCU Philanthropy Symposium at the National Harbor in Maryland. We heard from members of the President’s Board of Advisors on HBCUs on historic investments, learned about careers in chip manufacturing and aviation (takeaway: interns get travel perks!), and discussed ways for philanthropy, government, and companies to partner with HBCUs to support the success of Black learners and the economy. Innovation For Equity member Cassandra Illidge presented about her groundbreaking work at Getty Images to preserve HBCU history. We love our HBCUs!

Belated post: Had a blast moderating this Innovation For Equity extended family conversation about "Pathways in Education" at The Gathering Spot DC in March. Folks told captivating education leader origin stories, dropped knowledge ("get a therapist" #realtalk), and fellowshipped with the engaged audience. Takeaway: You can always pivot to a different pathway when you find your purpose and your people. Let's do it again soon!

Just returned from an energizing ASU-GSV. Something about this year hit different. Shout out to the powerful testimony from Carmita Semaan Sharif El-Mekki and Jeff Livingston calling out folks who bring us to the innovation table to stab us in the back by undermining and attacking #equity. And all hail the “Conversation with Common” about his work helping opportunity youth realize their dreams, brilliantly moderated by Byron K. Sanders, where the guest of honor dropped bars from an unreleased single and sent us home with a prayer blessing 🙏🏾 In the words of Dr. Gholdy Muhammad, “At the center of every successful framework in education is love.” Thank you to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation for sponsoring me and several Innovation For Equity Fellows in the Proximate Social Entrepreneur program! #asugsv2024
