Continuing our Black History Month celebration, Sara brings us one of the most important Broads whose research and advocacy has led to vast improvements in the early education, and lives of black children across the country: Dr. Evelyn Moore.
As a founding teacher of the Perry Preschool Project, she and her fellow educators proved that quality educational experiences transformed the lifelong success of impoverished children - not just in their long-term education, but in every aspect of their lives!
She would go on to found and run the National Black Child Development Institute (NBCDI) for 38 years, testifying in front of Congress to establish legislation to protect and uplift these youngest, most vulnerable members of our society. Listen now to hear her story!
