S8 E8: Black and Educated in the Era of Hate: Dr Terence Lester

Well, this week I get to talk with a real mover, Dr. Terence Lester. We talk Black politics, the subtle arrogance of Black educators, and of course, the mess we're in now. Go on, listen in! And buy his new book! Dr. Lester grew up in Atlanta with a single mother working multiple jobs, doing her best to raise Terence and his sister. The resulting trauma set him on a dangerous path involving gangs and homelessness before dropping out of high school. Eventually he returned to high school as a fifth-year senior, graduated, and enrolled in a nearby college, only to dropout after being arrested for underage drinking. A lenient judge threw out the charges, and Dr. Lester did not waste his second chance. He worked at a warehouse until a couple from his church helped him attend a Bible college. By 28 years old, Dr. Lester had four degrees and earned a PhD in public policy and social change in 2023. He went from a former high school dropout, gang member and teenager experiencing homelessness to being a youth pastor, adult pastor and later a church planter and community activist. In 2013, he and his wife Cecilia founded Love Beyond Walls, a nonprofit in Atlanta that supports those who face homelessness and poverty. https://terencelester.com/ https://www.nosmallendeavor.com/terence-lester-human-flourishing-self-development-and-the-common-good https://www.ivpress.com/from-dropout-to-doctorate-ebook
