Does the BLACK COMMUNITY wait too late to promote college to its YOUTH?
|
Posted By: Joan E. Gosier HBCUkidz.com on August 25, 2010 As a parent of two, I was perusing a Parenting magazine and couldn't help but notice the numerous ads for preschool "prep" schools that boast of their impressive alumni. I was discussing with a friend how there were no children of color in any of these ads. It made me ponder the question are some kids programmed to succeed earlier on in life than others? When is it too late to get caught up? Why are so many of our children of color (especially our boys) not going to college? Why do some kids automatically go to college while others never even think about it as an option? As an entrepreneur working for a family owned and operated company that seeks to PROMOTE POSITIVELY EDUCATION, FAMILY CULTURE and HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES (HBCUs), I am always seeking NEW AND INNOVATIVE solutions to problems. One of which is the lack of time, attention and FOCUS many people have for preparing for a PRODUCTIVE AND EXCITING FUTURE FOR OUR DREAMERS, LEADERS AND ACHIEVERS. Some seem to think only the "LUCKY ONES" deserve to prepare for college or above. If you enjoyed this article, Join BlackInAmerica.com today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
