When W.E.B. Dubois talked about the talented tenth being that exclusive group of Black people that would intellectually lead us not only into freedom but prosperity he was talking about the cream of the crop. He was talking about the best and brightest young minds among us to become doctors, lawyers, dentist, Bankers, an so on. Our program, though based deeply in this philosophy, is designed to develop a group of young men with young minds to become a part of that very prestigious group.
We have developed a rigorous, intellectually, spiritually and physically, and challenging program that has a curriculum that not only embraces the academics for success but the best life skills and etiquette to produce a cadre of Obama-like young men and scholars.
