EPISODE SUMMARY: 

The audience will gain awareness of what first generation college students bring to the table.

Being a first-generation student is a deeply intersectional identity as it takes into account issues of race, class, gender, immigrant status, and sexual orientation.  Most importantly, it brings to the forefront issues of social capital. Often the assumption is that first-gen students lack social capital (inside knowledge that increases success), resulting in underperformance in higher education. There, however, is emerging research on asset-based approaches to serving first gen students that is moving the conversation from what they lack to to the unique forms of knowledge that they bring to the table. 

Join Rev. Dr. TLC and her returning guest, Truth Hunter, as they bring to the forefront an empowering narrative for first-generation students. Truth will draw from over 15 years of experience with and advocating for  first-gen students in California, New York, and Connecticut.
