I am so excited today to share with you the overview of the Best Man Final Chapters with CJ.
He spoke about how best man final chapters was really how it was done well. That being able to talk about the experiences of the black middle-upper-class professionals, who we are now stepping into those spaces because we want to talk about representation who looks like me or not, it's not only who looks like me, but it's also who is having the same experiences that I am. And I saw many things that I've seen throughout my life and all of those characters. So it was so cool to see that brought to life. So stay tuned!

As you'll hear, it was created out of passion which took time, research, and intentionality.

In our second part of Creating Spaces for Black Educators to Thrive, we tackle the intentionality leaders must take to bring Black educators to decision-making tables. We simply cannot expect to retain Black educators if their voices are not valued, sought out, or heard.
