Clemons, founder and CEO of Our Village Consulting. Together, they explore the vital role of supporting and advocating for Black students, particularly during Black History Month. The conversation delves into their personal journeys, the significance of authenticity, intentionality, and advocacy in their work, and the broader impact of the 2023 Supreme Court ruling on race in college admissions. They also highlight the enduring value of HBCUs and share strategies for combating misinformation surrounding diversity, equity, and inclusion. Throughout the discussion, they emphasize the crucial role of school counselors in advancing equity, connecting students to post-secondary opportunities, and fostering community collaboration to empower the next generation.
