Melanated Masterminds believes a Human-centered education is the key to unlocking the Black brain, leading to the success and liberation of Black children.
The Why
Why Reconstruct Black Education on a Human-Centered Foundation? The education system is not designed to meet the needs of Black students or educators because it has never realized the African as fully human. Reconstructing Black education on a Human-centered foundation involves a comprehensive and intentional effort to center our history, culture, and experiences in the design and delivery of educational programs and curricula.
