By Dr. Howard Fuller and Shannon Williams
He has traveled the world advocating for Black people.
From the communities inhabited by poor Black people in Durham, North Carolina to the bush of Mozambique, and throughout his beloved city of Milwaukee.
We are not in the group who tout the fact that the COVID-19 pandemic is shining a light on the inequities of America for poor Black people.
He said, “The central quality in (Black peoples’) life is pain-pain so old and deep that it shows in every moment of (our) existence.
In our individual worlds we continue to fight the good fight for our people while entities like The Mind Trust and the Dr. Howard Fuller Collegiate Academy, both institutions we represent, work to advance educational opportunities for Black and Brown children.
