Brother Baba Christopher “Chris” Chatmon is the visionary founder and CEO of Kingmakers of Oakland, an award-winning nonprofit that elevates Black boys' educational and life outcomes nationwide. He stops by class to talk about the work he pioneered as the inaugural Executive Director of African American Male Achievement at Oakland Unified School District, the first of its kind nationally within a public school district, and lessons learned along the way–including the importance of making space to support non-binary and gender-expansive young people. We also celebrate the life and legacy of Civil Rights & Education Advocate Oscar C. Wright.
