Black Scholars Matter

Our mission is to foster equitable pathways to any area of study in higher education regardless of how Black students perform in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) courses, all while emphasizing the importance of Afrocentric history.

Arts & Humanities or STEM, Black Scholars Matter.

To be young, gifted and black.

-Composed by Nina Simone, written by Weldon Irvine, immortalized by Chadwick Boseman at the 2019 SAG Awards
