Susan L. Taylor and Steve Harvey lead a town hall discussion at Morehouse College tonight on educating black youth. The former Essence editor-in-chief was on the Steve Harvey Morning Show today talking about the town hall.
The event, sponsored by General Mills as part of its “Box Tops for Education” program begins at 7 p.m. in the Martin Luther King Jr. International Chapel on the campus of Morehouse College. It is free with advance registration at http://www.btfe.com/townhall. Special guests will include Spelman College President Beverly Tatum actress Tisha Campbell-Martin, singers Monica and Chilli of TLC.
The goal is to start a conversation about the importance of a strong primary education in the lives of children and the impact mentoring can have on both children and their education.
With a fast-growing number of children falling below the poverty line, Taylor said America has no choice but to develop innovative strategies to secure their future.
