What does it mean to innovate for the future while holding on to the power of our past? In this episode, Dr. Tasha sits down with Marquetta Atkins-Woods, founder and executive director of Destination Innovation, Inc., to discuss how Black innovation isn’t just about technology—it’s about transforming our communities, reclaiming power, and ensuring upcoming generations thrive.

Marquetta’s work is about shifting the mirror—challenging the narratives about Black and Brown youth and creating spaces where they don’t just participate, but lead.

This conversation is a call to action, because when we talk about Black innovation, we’re talking about survival, legacy, and the audacity to exist on our own terms.
