Fixing Fathers and mettle entertainment group would like to thank everyone who has help to make our trip to the Malcolm Bernard HBCU College Fair a huge success. In 2016 we started out with 20 students. We had so much room on the bus that we actually wondered if it was worth it. Then in 2017 our bus was filled to capacity, and in 2018 with the help of the COMMUNITY we filled two buses. Donor%20Card%20black.jpg WOW! We are looking forward to our next trip to the Malcolm Bernard HBCU College Fare in November 2019. If you are interested in supporting this program, please reach out to Dr. David Lee Asbery. davidasbery@fixingfathers.org or you can click on the link below.

Dear White Teachers: You Can't Love Your Black Students If You Don't Know Them
-Getty
For Black and Brown children in the United States, a major part of their schooling experience is associated with White female teachers who have no understanding of their culture. That was certainly my experience. My K-12 schooling was filled with White teachers who, at their core, were good people but unknowingly were murdering my spirit with their lack of knowledge, care, and love of my culture...

The International Festival of Arts & Ideas Fall 2010 is pleased to announce its Fall 2010 Fellowship program. The inaugural program was launched in January 2010, providing opportunities for high school juniors and seniors to develop their communication and leadership skills as they prepared to pursue college and/or enter the workforce.
The program combines instruction in critical writing, nonprofit management and various arts disciplines, with opportunities for job shadowing and hands-on work experience around Festival events. Fellows were also tasked with viewing various performances and exhibits and writing reviews which were posted on the Festival blog.
It is our belief that the arts contribute to the overall vitality and connectedness of our community and that exposure to the arts by our young people is especially critical to their future success. Each student that completes the program will receive a stipend of $500.
For more information about the Fellowship program and an application, visit http://www.artidea.org/view_page.php?id=84 or contact Dawn Gibson-Brehon, Fellowship Program Manager at 203.815.2926. Applications are being accepted online through September 3, 2010. Slots are limited and students will be accepted on a first come, first serve basis.
