Dr. Sanford is the last of black women who care about black boys. Black women of today REFUSE to come together around the topic of helping black boys, they wont even discuss it. EVERYTHING today is about helping black girls ONLY! Black men see this hate and want to avoid black women altogether.

@LISTENtotheMANofGOD If what you say is true, then we are a doomed race, as some believe. Fortunately, many care, many discuss, many help, many don't avoid, many love. Dr. Sanford is our great teacher, who teaches that we must begin with ourselves.

Keep spreading the History. Thanks and blessings to our Elders. Ashe.

Peace to this Queen Sister. I heard they had to shut her down though. The system is real.

One of my heroes! Dr. Adelaide L. Sanford, Vice Chancellor Emerita of the New York State Board of Regents was an advocate for the Queens Association for Parents of Exceptionally Gifted Children (EGC), the group responsible for my elementary school education.
