Kellye Britton on the Record-Breaking Harvard Debate Council Diversity Project

Welcome to episode one of four in our Black Future Month series. Black Future Month is all about honoring those that came before us by investing in those coming after us. How do we take the phrase I am my ancestors wildest dream and enrich it to the point that those who are next ultimately end up functioning at a level so much higher than our ancestor could dream. We start by sitting down with Kellye Britton of The Harvard Debate Council Diversity Project (HDCDP) an Atlanta-based pipeline program that recruits, trains, and sends black youth to a summer debate residency program at Harvard. (Thats the official wording but in reality it is so much more than that). Kellye has a passion for black youth and it is overly obvious as you listen. She discusses the HDCDP methodology, her personal passions for enrichment, and even dives into strategic thought on how parents can really help....she also makes it plain that we are not raising children we are raising adults. One tip she has and we support is simply - "Get out of their way" For more information on the Harvard Debate Council Diversity Project please follow them on IG:@harvarddcdp or check out there website at:https://harvarddcdp.org/ Lastly, don't forget to get social with us  IG: WHILE_BLACK; TWITTER @whileblackpc; FB @whileblackpodcast or email: whileblackpodcast@gmail.com   Learn more about your ad choices.
