Our May eNews offers a refreshing and impactful summer opportunity for men of color who work with middle and high schools. Discovering Rituals, Understanding Manhood (D.R.U.M.) introduces teams of male educators to the Rites of Passage experience and prepares them to incorporate the D.R.U.M. framework into their own program for boys and young men of color.

“This [course] is needed throughout the schools in our district. Many are struggling to connect to Black boys, and this would be tremendously helpful.”
~Course Participant

Extending our lens from the past to the present, and from well-known to lesser-known women heroines, today we introduce another of our very own Professional Development Facilitators, Gene Thompson-Grove!

From the NYTimes: A century ago, a dinner party in New York set in motion one of the most influential cultural movements of the 20th century. It was barely covered at the time, but the NYTimes explored archival material and have reconstructed much of it. In the years after the dinner party, Black writers published more than 40 volumes of fiction, non-fiction and poetry. https://nyti.ms/3VyxCbT
