The National Society of Black Engineers, NSBE, is a professional society that aims to have 10,000 black Engineers graduate from college by 2025. By engaging the youth as early as 3rd grade in STEM, NSBE helps students and professionals develop the skills needed for a successful professional career.

We learn more about NSBE from Tony Stanford and Quincy Smith, the president and vice president of the NSBE’s Charlotte chapter.  They touch on the most significant benefit from NSBE is the networking, which played a large role in their career success.  You will find the details about their unique experience on how they started and the journey with NSBE. 

In this episode, you also learn about NSBE’s initiatives, such as their Walk for Education, and 
The Summer Engineering Experience for Kids  (SEEK).  SEEK is NSBE’s yearly summer program for 3rd to 5th graders, and it became a three-week virtual program during COVID, for future black engineers to learn about drones, robotics, and coding. The program is one of many initiatives by NSBE to foster the development of future black engineers.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
