Established in 2014, Village of Wisdom’s mission is to liberate and protect the intellectual curiosity and positive racial identity of Black children (Black Genius®). We do this by amplifying the cultural strengths of Black families and creating the conditions for Black parents to co-design culturally affirming and liberatory environments in and outside the classroom. Towards our mission, we are launching the Black Parent Dreamship — a leadership fellowship where parents channel their wisdom into designing and validating culturally affirming and liberatory learning environments for Black learners across the United States.
