Deep in the Work Intro—Stephanye Watts

In this episode, we’re talking to Stephanye Watts, who is a Philly native, music fan, and one of the biggest and most-active HBCU Alumni reps I know.

A graduate of Clark Atlanta University, Stephanye is the Assembly Program Coordinator at Recess, an artist-led alternative to incarceration empowering court-involved young people to take charge of their own life story and imagine a positive future through art. Stephanye served her community in her previous post as Community Engagement Manager at Weeksville Heritage Center and continues to do so as a member of the Association of African-American Museums, CAU's alumni association, UNCF's Inter-Alumni Council, and the HBCU Hub.

When the Philadelphia native isn't pushing the Black agenda, she is the woman behind the world's only R&B trivia night, #RhythmNBodyroll, a podcast, The Psyce, and the Be Reel Black Cinema Club.
