Step into the vibrant world of the 22nd Annual Youth Summit, ’Growing Up Black,’ where the voices of our scholars resonate with the essence of contemporary Black experiences. Building upon the rich tapestry of history, their work draws inspiration from sources found within the archives at the Schomburg Center like the Brownies’ Book, weaving a narrative that celebrates resilience, resistance, and the journey towards self-discovery. Through music, video production, spoken word, visual arts, and radio journalism, they paint a vivid portrait of the Black experience in today’s world. This multimedia showcase will also feature Partner Presentations from Crossroads Juvenile Detention Center & Horizons Juvenile Detentions Center.

Get ready to be empowered, educated, and inspired at the 22nd Annual Junior Scholars Program Youth Summit.
