Who We Are

The blackgirlPOD is a hybrid community designed to nurture the joy and genius of Blackgirls through high-quality curriculum and instruction that centers their needs, affirms their identities, and leverages their history as a linchpin for individual and collective academic and social development. Drawing on theory, scholarship and best-practices, The blackgirlPOD brings together a village of scholars, educators and families committed to raising Blackgirls who understand their historical legacy, recognize the power and purpose of their individual and collective voices, and can effectively read, write, collaborate and create to transform the world they inhabit.
 

The bgPOD Virtual Academy will connect Blackgirls from all over the world into sisterhood and shared learning through reading, writing, discussion around Blackgirl-centered books. The spring semester will run from April through May. Classes will be live and meet via Zoom. Through your choice of a rich mix of 8-week courses, elementary aged girls will learn subject-matter content, Black history and critical strategies in reading, writing, collaborating and presenting. To ensure individualized attention, spaces will be limited. Complete the form below to receive priority status in registration and enrollment.
