Let's celebrate the young black men who are doing great positive things.
David Boone
Local student David Boone is admitted to almost all Ivy League colleges with grades and perseverance after being forced to sleep in parks after home life turmoil.
Stephen Stafford
Meet 13-year-old, Stephen Stafford II. Stephen Stafford is in his second year at Morehouse College and is a sensation.
The 13-year-old is a triple-major child prodigy (biology, computer science and mathematics) and also tutors kids and fellow students at Morehouse.
Jaylen Bledsoe
Jaylen Bledsoe, 15, of Hazelwood, Mo., is a rare breed of high school sophomore. He started his own tech company, Bledsoe Technologies, which specializes in Web design and other IT services when he was just 13 years old and expanded it into a global enterprise now worth around $3.5 million.
Polite Stewart Jr.
Polite was 3 years old when his parents pulled him out of day care and his father began teaching him at home. The Baton Rouge, La., native loved learning science — and he clearly had an aptitude for it. At 14, he enrolled as a full time student at Southern University, majoring in physics. Polite graduated in December 2012 at 18, and is believed to be the youngest to do so in the university’s history. He plans to pursue a career that will allow him to apply the science he loves to the real world.
Tony Hansberry II
He is young, he is gifted and he is Black. At the age of 14, Tony Hansberry II certainly holds grounded status in the league of exceptional youth.
“Tony Hansberry II isn’t waiting to finish medical school to contribute to improved medical care. He has already developed a stitching technique that can be used to reduce surgical complications, as well as the chance of error among less experienced surgeons,” writes Jackie Jones in BlackAmericaWeb.com on June 16, 2009.
