Envisioning the 22nd Century HBCU: Innovation, Resilience, and Transformation
Building on the foundation laid by Literacy & Legacy: Deepening Understanding of HBCUs, this SOUL of the Yard episode explores the future of HBCUs through the lens of innovation, resilience, and transformation.
This session will pose a critical and timely question: What will the HBCU of the 22nd century look like—and how must we act now to ensure their continued impact and evolution? Rooted in a tradition of excellence and social justice, this conversation continues the HBCU Center’s commitment to interrogating the purpose, possibilities, and power of Historically Black Colleges and Universities as both individual institutions and a collective force.
Featuring:
Dr. Joseph Jones, Executive Director of the W.E.B. DuBois Southern Center for the Studies in Public Policy, this episode invites scholars, students, and advocates to imagine new futures for Black higher education—grounded in the lessons of the past and designed for the challenges ahead.
