inspiring stores by our griotS

 OurGriot.org interviewed Dr. Hrabowski about his life growing up in the south, his struggles with racism, his education and family, and how he succeeded in being the first Black president of UMBC, a predominantly white university. His inspirational words of wisdom are invaluable, and we hope you will share this video with your family and friends!
