President/General of the Universal African Peoples Organization, Zaki Baruti, returns to our classroom! Zaki will break down the Supreme Court’s recent Voting Rights decision and reveal how it could shape the future of our democracy—including this fall’s elections. He’ll dive into what happened in the Texas Primary and preview the pivotal races ahead in California and St. Louis, offering insight you won’t find anywhere else. The morning kicks off with Sister Phile, who brings urgency to the ongoing search for thousands of missing Black women and girls—stories that demand our attention and action. Then, how well do you know your history? Dr. Nah Dove, acclaimed Afrocology professor at Temple University, will challenge us to rethink what we know about Africa’s past, exploring the rise and fall of legendary civilizations like Kush, the Malian Empire, the Kingdom of Dahomey, Great Zimbabwe, and many more.
