In The History and Future of HBCUs, Professor Crystal R. Sanders and Professor Reginald Ellis take you back to the pre-Civil War origins of some of the earliest HBCUs and walk you through the complex history of these institutions. As you witness their growth - and the power struggles that often came with the fraught political and racial landscape of the US in the 19th and 20th centuries - you will meet some of the great minds they produced. Uncover the indelible mark they have left on American education, the fight for Black liberation, and the Civil Rights movement.

Choosing2Stay is for the silent fighter, the weary believer, and the undecided heart. The ones who smile in public but cry in private. The ones who feel forgotten, overwhelmed, or on the edge. The ones who’ve asked, "Will my life ever get better?" I know because I've asked that question too. This space was created from real grief, betrayal, heartbreak, and silent suffering. But it was also born from the decision to keep going. To hold on. To choose to stay — when it seems easier to give up. I'm here so you will stay- even when life gets hard. You are not a burden; you are not alone.
